Mary Anne Turner

Mary Anne Turner is a British Romanticism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Mary Anne Turner painted crisp watercolors of 19th-century Istanbul. In 1826 she stood at the Galata waterfront and recorded Üsküdar and Saray Burnu from Galata, with the Sea of Marmara in the distance, then turned inland for Former Dolmabahçe Palace and Mosque. The pictures show minarets, domes, and the glittering harbor exactly as they looked then.
