This book deals with the examples of landscape painting in the Glyptotek’s Modern Collection. The term “landscape” has been chosen in its most all-embracing sense, so as to include the widely differing types of landscapes to be found in the Collection. Following an introduction to the concept of landscape painting and its history, this group of essays focuses on principal works in the collection, which are examined both individually and within the context of the general issues and themes of the period in which they were created. Chapters include: The Landscapes of Art, A short history of mentalities. European Landscape Painting around 1800. Conversations with a Tree. When Roses Blossomed fair in Dana’s Garden - The Lanscapes of the Golden Age. Sisley in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek. Pissarro - Gauguin - Cezanne: Lightness of Line, Weight of world.. The Crux of the Matter - on a painting by Monet. Landscape, Later - on an outdated genre in mordern paingint.
