<p>Linking London and the Midlands, the Grand Junction Canal (later part of the Grand Union Canal) was begun in 1793. Turner’s close-up focus on the infrastructure of the lock, combined with the windmill, highlights the ways in which people were harnessing nature in productive ways, using water and wind power to fuel the modern world.</p><p><em>Gallery label, November 2022</em></p>
