About
Turner’s House in Twickenham offers a unique insight into the life of Britain’s greatest landscape painter, JMW Turner. Designed by Turner and completed in 1813, the house was a quiet retreat, away from the pressures of the London art world, to which he would invite friends and indulge in his passion for fishing. The design of the house is as idiosyncratic and unique as any of Turner’s paintings. Turner’s House offers a rare opportunity to experience the private life of this great artist. Please go to our website for latest news and information about our tours and events as well as our acclaimed temporary exhibitions of Turner’s works.
