	ArtScope.net: Turner's Britain
		From wild, lonely Scottish dales to the inferno of a burning Parliament, Turner's Britain is a glimpse into the social, political, and aesthetic ambitions of this superbly talented artist -- and into his expression, through his art, of a portrait of Britain's identity as a nation.
		Aside from artistic support, as well as providing one of the few places in which Turner seems to have enjoyed a recreative break from his relentless commercial production, Fawkes, a dedicated, radical politician, is credited with influencing Turner toward a sympathy for Parliamentary reform.
		While these non-landscape subjects do not highlight Turner's political expressions per se -- not as powerfully as the fury of a burning Parliament -- they are a glimpse into a lighter, informal application of his skills, as well as his wry wit.
