Mary Morton, Charlotte Eyerman, "Courbet and the Modern Landscape"
Publisher: J. Paul Getty | 2006 | ISBN: 0892368365 | English | PDF | 152 pages | 18.05 Mb

While the large-scale figural works of Gustave Courbet’s early to mid-career—pictures such as Burial at Ornans, The Stonebreakers, and The Studio of the Painter—are of signal importance to the history of Western art, it is in the genre of landscape that the artist laid the groundwork for a vital current of Modernist painting. A young turk from the provinces who made his mark in Paris, he promoted his image as a gregarious outsider, passionate, physically robust, and profoundly ambitious. Drawing inspiration from natural motifs, Courbet reset the course of French painting to embrace immediacy, vitality, and painterly self-expression.

Courbet and the Modern Landscape accompanies the first major museum exhibition to address the artist’s extraordinary achievement in the genre of landscape painting. The book illustrates a highly selective group of landscapes from 1855 to 1877, most of them from the 1860s, when Courbet discovered in the countryside of his native Franche-Comté and on the shores of the Normandy coast a consistently rich source of visual stimulation. Many of the paintings—from collections in Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, Japan, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States—will be new to general readers of art history, and their juxtaposition will be a revelation to both experts and amateurs alike.
