520 1 $a"Stubbs, Wilson, Gainsborough, Turner, Constable, Cox, Whistler ... they are all included in this very comprehensive work, which gives the key to the understanding and appreciation of the masters of the English landscape." "Biblical, historical or mythological subject matter, along with idealised portraits, may for a long time have dominated English painting, but by the end of the 16th century landscape had already begun to symbolise the association between Nature and Beauty. The 18th and 19th centuries offer us innumerable masterpieces, often in watercolour, as romanticism became all the vogue. The Preraphaelites, and then the influence of impressionism helped to stimulate a new wave of English painting, in which James McNeill Whistler played an important role. The 20th century rejoiced in artists as different as Oskar Kokoschka, a Czechoslovakian who became a naturalised British citizen, Graham Sutherland and Ben Nicholson." "The richness and variety of the English school of landscape painters has resulted from the constant conflict between realism and poetry. This book, which contains colour reproductions of over 150 important and significant works, fills a gap for those who wish to know about different schools and styles of painting."--Jacket.
