William Turner comparisons:

A Comparison:

Just looking at the two images you see the comparison. The way the vast structures loom in the background, the way the light etches over the environment. There's also a significant portion of both images where there is the source of light and where there is darkness. With the concept art, the structure looms under a canvas of rocks as the sunlight drapes into the structure. Turners work is similar (but a lot more classic). The slave ship sits in the distance, once again in the dark. The only difference is that the light source is in the center of the image. Turner was labeled as 'the painter of light' and it shows in his work. The main comparison between the two is defiantly the use of light.
