Turner carefully studied the masters of the past and contemporary artists. Copying other people's works, he creatively rethought other people's images, expressing his own vision. Claude Lorren especially admired him: according to a contemporary, when he saw the painting “Departure of the Queen of Sheba,” Turner could not help crying. The artist explained his reaction by the fact that he would never create anything like that.
