Description

The original Turner version of Rockets and Blue Lights (Close at Hand) to Warn Steam Boats of Shoal Water; was exhibited in 1840. This is a Chromolithograph copy by Robert Carrick after J.M.W. Turner. This copy was commissioned in 1852 by the painting's then owner, and again in a photograph of 1896 that was published in the Artwatch UK Journal of Summer 2005 by courtesy of Christie's. This copy clearly shows the now lost boat and how the 20th-century restorers of the sky, have lost the storm-driven smoke from the funnels of the original pair of steamboats, one of which has now disappeared under the waves along with its originally depicted crew members.[1]
