Apr 26, 2013

A film that looks at the genius of JMW Turner in a new light. There is more to Turner than his sublime landscapes - he also painted machines, science, technology and industry.

The programme examines nine key Turner paintings and shows how we should re-think them in the light of the scientific and Industrial Revolution.
