Charles Turner (1773-1857) was one of Britain's most accomplished mezzotint engravers, and this large 1805-07 print reproduces “The Shipwreck,” a dramatic marine painting by his contemporary J. M. W. Turner (no relation, despite the shared surname). The mezzotint captures a small boat of survivors struggling against towering waves after a ship has gone down at sea, translating Turner's turbulent brushwork into the rich, velvety blacks and silvery highlights unique to the mezzotint process. It was among the first individual prints made after one of J. M. W. Turner's paintings, helping build the reputation he would hold for the rest of his career as Britain's foremost painter of the sublime and stormy sea.
Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.

It landed on my porch in perfect condition two days early. The texture in A Shipwreck makes Turner feel present in the room.

Small gripe, big win
The subject was exactly what I was hunting for and the reproduction is clean. Shipping took four days from order to doorstep. The colors are slightly warmer in person and I like them better that way.

Good buy overall
The condition it arrived in tells me somebody packs these by hand. It brought A Shipwreck into the house at a price I could actually justify.

Beautiful, and fast shipping
I wanted something for the stairwell that nobody else would have, and this is it. The brushwork in A Shipwreck shows exactly why Turner has the reputation.
