This exhibition introduces the works of Turner and many other artists representing the watercolor world in Britain.
The exhibition also features Pre-Raphaelite artists such as Rossetti, Millais, Hunt, and Burne-Jones, who are well-known in Japan as well. The heyday of English watercolors, filled with an elegance and tenderness through subtle and delicate colors, will be introduced through approximately 150 watercolors and other works by great artists in Britain during the period spanning the 18th to 19th century.
