Description

Turner's Last Sketchbook is a beautifully produced facsimile of the artist's final intact sketchbook, now in the collection of the Yale Center for British Art. The book represents a pivotal moment in Turner's life, created during a summer in 1845 spent on the coast of Kent, where he drew the seaside town of Margate. This edition of Turner's sketchbook is accompanied by a poem, written by Tracey Emin, who expresses her deep connection to the artist's work. Emin's own connection to Margate, where she grew up, adds a personal touch to this presentation of Turner's sketchbook. With generous margins and blank pages, this facsimile invites further sketches and creative expression, in the spirit of the artist.
