Product Description

Artists of the Victorian and early Modern period (1850–1950) sought to convey not merely the physical properties of a landscape, but also its emotional and spiritual impact. Drawing on works by Samuel Palmer, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Edward Burne-Jones, Helen Allingham, John and Paul Nash, Eric Ravilious, Ben Nicholson, Henry Moore and many others, this book explores artists’ quests to capture the essence of landscape and convey a sense of place.
