Landscape Painting in Revolutionary France : Liberty's Embrace, Hardback Book

Landscape Painting in Revolutionary France : Liberty's Embrace Hardback

Part of the Routledge Research in Art History series

Hardback

Description

The French Revolution had a marked impact on the ways in which citizens saw the newly liberated spaces in which they now lived.

Painting, gardening, cinematic displays of landscape, travel guides, public festivals, and tales of space flight and devilabduction each shaped citizens’ understanding of space.

Through an exploration of landscape painting over some 40 years, Steven Adams examines the work of artists, critics and contemporary observers who have largely escaped art historical attention to show the importance of landscape as a means of crystallising national identity in a period of unprecedented political and social change.
