Which artist is known for the painting “The Fighting Temeraire”? J.M.W. Turner painted it in 1838.

Its full title, The Fighting Temeraire, tugged to her last berth to be broken up, 1838, describes the scene: a paddle-wheel steam tug pulls the aging HMS Temeraire along the Thames toward a shipbreaking yard. Turner contrasted the small, dark tug with the large, ghostly warship, turning a practical final journey into a meditation on change and mortality.

HMS Temeraire was a 98-gun second-rate ship of the line and had fought at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Turner used artistic licence in the composition, and scholars cannot establish with certainty that he personally witnessed the towing.

The oil painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1839 and now hangs in London’s National Gallery. It is sometimes confused with Turner’s other seascapes or with works by John Constable, but its fading warship and glowing sunset are especially associated with Turner’s atmospheric style.
