One twist to this year's annual Turner exhibition at the National Gallery of Ireland is the inclusion of artists who found inspiration in Turner. To mark the 250th anniversary of Turner's birth in 1775, the National Gallery exchanged its Turners with the National Galleries of Scotland. 'Quite Early One Morning, 2017' by Niall Naessens is at the Turner exhibition. Bequeathed in 1900, the Turner watercolours have been displayed every year since 1901, with the notable exception of the pandemic year of 2021 and 2025. William Blake: The Age of Romantic Fantasy, curated by Tate in partnership with the National Gallery, runs from April 16 to July 19.
