The Clore Gallery at Tate Britain, home to the Turner Bequest, always has a special place in my heart. It was here that I first encountered the brilliance and genius of JWM Turner. I fell in love with his paintings immediately. Today, the Turners are still as soul stirring, atmospheric and romantic, but Tate Britain seemed to have turned threadbare compared to European heavyweights such as the Prado.
