The Yale Center for British Art Curators in Conversation series presents

Elizabeth Wyckoff, Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Yale Center for British Art and Jennifer Tonkovich, Eugene and Clare Thaw Curator of Drawings and Prints at the Morgan Library and Museum, New York: 

“Turner’s Last Sketchbook”.

Join us to celebrate the Yale Center for British Art’s recent publication of Turner’s Last Sketchbook, a facsimile of an exuberant and colorful sketchbook by J. M. W. Turner in the museum’s collection. In this lively discussion, Elizabeth Wyckoff, Curator of Prints and Drawings, Yale Center for British Art, and Jennifer Tonkovich, Eugene and Clare Thaw Curator of Drawings and Prints, the Morgan Library and Museum, will situate Turner’s drawing practice within the broader context of the often-private worlds of artists’ sketchbooks.
