TURNER J. M. W.: (1775-1851) English Painter. An extremely rare, early ink signature, William Turner, on a slim 8vo page removed from the Attendance Book of the Plaister Academy at the Royal Academy, London, n.d. (16th October 1790?). The fifteen year old Turner's bold signature appears at the foot of the page, and above his signature appear those of twelve other fellow students, with a further fifteen signatures to the verso. Included are the signatures of artists John Naish, Thomas Nugent, William Hobday, John Mowson, James Oliver, James Earl, Francis Wingrave, James John Russell, Robert Saunders, Thomas Kearsley, Robert Porter, Matthew Haughton, Thomas Hellyer, James Chapman and Thomas Hargreaves, a few appearing more than once. Some very light, extremely minor age wear and very slight traces of former mounting to the right edge of the verso, otherwise VG Joseph Mallord William Turner, known within his family as William, entered the Royal Academy Schools as a promising student at the age of 14. The young Turner first worked in the Plaister Academy, drawing from casts of antique sculpture. In the biography Turner In His Time (1987) Andrew Wilton notes that Turner's 'name appears fairly frequently in the registers between 21st July 1790 (the earliest record extant) and 8th October 1793. Provenance: Some of the Attendance Books now in the Library of the Royal Academy were once the property of the renowned British collector Charles Fairfax Murray (1849-1919) and bear his Ex-Libris to the inside boards. Upon the dispersal of his large collections, the Registers, with a number of pages removed, were apparently re-acquired by the Royal Academy. The present, previously missing page, were re-discovered in Australia, tipped into an old Victorian album.
