Landscape and the Environment

In every part of the world, in every generation, the landscape and environment have fascinated and inspired artists. They have expressed their feelings through paintings, or altered their surroundings by making gardens or sculptures. Whatever forms their creations have taken, artists have managed to capture their visions of the environment for us to share. This book explains how art styles have developed through time, and how artists' techniques add to our understanding of their work. The subject of war and conflict is captured in a wide range of media, including photography, painting, sculpture, posters, textiles, and film. The information to help interpret works of art and understand the time in history in which they were created are included in this book.Bingham, Jane is the author of 'Landscape and the Environment', published 2006 under ISBN 9781410922403 and ISBN 1410922405.
