Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to delve into the rich history of landscape painting!10.30am 11.30am Lecture 1: Emergence and Revival: Classical Landscape Painting and it’s Revival in the Middle Ages and The Renaissance. It appears that landscape frescoes were used as early as Roman times. However, landscape virtually disappears after this until 13th century as Art had mainly portrayed Christian subjects. By I5th century landscape is a key component in a composition, and we will look at the work of Jan van Eyck, Leonardo, Piero della Francesca and Raphael. Coffee Time 12.00-1pm Lecture 2: Landscape Painting Triumphant in Dutch, Flemish and Italian Painting in the 16th and 17th Century The 16th and 17th centuries saw the emergence of landscape as a subject in its own right by German artists Dürer, Lucas Cranach, Albrecht Altdorfer and the Flemish artist Joachim Patinir. By the 17th century landscape became all important in depicting the landscape of the newly emerging Dutch Republic as in the work of artists such as Esaias van der Velde, Jan van Goyen or Salomon van Ruysdael. In the next generation Rembrandt and Jacob van Ruisdael saw the dramatic power and melancholy of landscape while Rubens infused his landscape with an autumnal warmth which later influenced Gainsborough. By the middle of the 17th century a wide variety of landscape developments were apparent. 1pm – 2pm Lunch 2pm – 3pm Lecture 3: From Rococo to Expressionism: Landscape Painting in the 18th and 19th By the 18th century artists throughout Europe and Britain, exploited landscape in a myriad of different ways. Idyllic garden or wooded landscapes were painted by Nicolas Lancret or Joshua Reynolds behind single or groups of figures. Towards the end of the century landscape becomes the main subject of experimentation used to great effect in the ways it is painted by Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painters from Claude Monet to Vincent van Gogh or Cezanne. Equally varied are the landscapes painted by art nouveau painters from Gustav Klimt or Egon Schiele and their contemporaries. Information Source: The Arts Society West Gloucestershire | eventbrite
