Weight: 22.5 ounces. This title was first published in the UK in 1949 and a new edition was published in hardcover in 1976. Paperback. An expanded edition of the eminent art historian's 1949 work relates four modes of depicting landscapes to nineteenth-century painting and considers the future of landscape painting. Among many honours, Kenneth Clark was knighted at the unusually young age of thirty-five, and three decades later was made a life peer shortly before the first transmission of his acclaimed BBC Television series 'Civilisation'. Three decades after his death, Clark was celebrated in an exhibition at Tate Britain in London, prompting a reappraisal of his career by a new generation of critics and historians, during which his skill as a writer and his enthusiasm for popularising the arts were widely recognised. Both the BBC and the Tate described him in retrospect as one of the most influential figures in British art of the twentieth century. This is an engaging read. It describes the history of western landscape painting, from medieval manuscripts up through the neoimpressionists, Van Gogh and Cezanne. It considers both "realism" and fantasy landscapes, and demonstrates how the depiction of light was always an essential aspect of the portrayal of landscapes, long certainly before the Impressionists. It explains why Constable is the great progenitor, and what was new, and what was not, in the impressionists. He's a gracious and knowledgable writer. A classic of the genre. ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 248 pages First Edition Thus [1979], Third Printing (1986); First Printing.…
