HOW JMW TURNER SET PAINTING FREE?
There is a fascinating story about the American Abstract Expressionist painter Mark Rothko.
In 1966, he visited an exhibition of work by the 19th-century British landscape painter JMW Turner at the museum in New York. 1. _____ “This man Turner,” he reportedly said afterwards, “he learned a lot from me.”
Given that Turner had died more than a century earlier, what did Rothko mean? The answer is simple and fairly obvious nowadays. 2. _____ And it can be easily noticed in his works Last week, I saw a major new exhibition at Tate Britain in London devoted to the final phase of Turner’s career. Traditionally, this period is known as the moment when Turner’s painting became more vigorous, intense and liberated than ever before. 3. _____ The Tate’s galleries are filled with the artist’s stunning, effortlessly incandescent oil paintings.
Unsurprisingly, given how radical they still seem today, these paintings were widely misunderstood by many of Turner’s contemporaries. 4. _____ Even his doctor, the surgeon Anthony Carlisle, was fond of expressing a widely held belief: “The age of Sixty may, in general, be fixed upon as the commencement of Senility.”
Yet the airy, insubstantial quality of Turner’s late style is precisely what endeared him to modern artists.

A COSTLY MISTAKE?
The former owner of a painting sold for £42,000 is suing Sotheby's after it was later claimed as a £10 million Caravaggio.
Lancelot Thwaytes, who inherited the painting bought by his ancestor for £140 in 1962, sold it at the auction house on the basis that it was a copy. Believing that the work had been exhaustively researched and was definitely not by Caravaggio, Mr Thwaytes decided to sell it through Sotheby's.
The auction house assessed the work as being by an unknown follower of the Old Master. The attribution read: “In our opinion a work by a painter working in the artist’s style, contemporary to him, but not necessarily his pupil.”
The picture fetched a hammer price of £42,000 in September 2006. Soon afterwards, its buyer, the renowned art collector and historian Sir Denis Mahon, valued the work, entitled The Cardsharps, as a genuine Caravaggio worth £10 million, using the occasion of his 97th birthday to unveil the assessment.
Now Mr Thwaytes claims the auction house failed to carry out proper tests on the painting, saying they did not fulfill their professional duties. Sotheby’s maintains the painting is not a genuine Caravaggio and that it is “clearly inferior” in quality to the master’s true works. In documents now submitted to the High Court hearing, Mr Thwaytes' lawyers criticises the auction house for negligence and claims they failed to carry out proper tests and consult experts. Sotheby’s denies any accusation of
“negligence, causation and loss”, insisting its experts assessed the painting correctly and that “all due skill and diligence” was applied. It will argue the painting is “clearly” a replica, citing a range of Caravaggio scholars who support its view. A spokesman for Sotheby's said: “The catalogue in which the painting was included was distributed among the world’s leading curators, art historians, collectors and dealers – had they deemed the attribution different to that given in the catalogue, the final selling price would doubtless have reflected that.”
Sir Denis, who believed the painting was a genuine Caravaggio, died in 2011, bequeathing part of his vast collection to the nation including, among others, nearly 60 important Italian Baroque masterpieces.
The painting in question is currently on display at the Museum of the Order of St John and is insured for £10m. The hearing, which is expected to last three weeks, continues.
