Joseph Mallord William Turner
The Fall of Anarchy (?) (c.1833–4)
Tate
This is the first Turner painting I was introduced to, and it sparked my interest in his work and impressionism during my teenage years. Later when studying impressionism in music, such as the works of Debussy and Ravel, I was fascinated by the parallels between the sounds I was hearing and the art I was interested in; impressionism hints at a scenario but never quite provides the full image, and this painting in particular has had a profound effect on the way I look at art/music – that I like it to be hazy but never shy at getting a point across.
