Published in conjunction with an exhibition organized by the National Gallery of Art, Washington, in association with the Brooklyn Museum and the Saint Louis Art Museum. In the 1850s and 1860s, painting landscapes in oils directly from nature moved from the margins of artistic activity to become a central creed and practice for radical young European painters; but the subject of this exhibition and catalog is the open-air work done earlier, by painters active between 1780 and 1840, when such paintings were considered merely part of the working process. Five essays precede presentation of the works, each of which is thoroughly captioned. 9.25x11.75 " Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
