Thoughts on Landscape Painting

By Niles Nordquist

This work is a compilation of thoughts on landscape painting from artists and philosophers or both. It extends over a period of twenty-five hundred years including quotations primarily from European and American artists. The references come from more than eighty books, articles, and workshops. This required the review of more than twenty-five-thousand pages of text. Some citations extend back to classical Greece.I have only extracted a few statements from the treasures held in each of these resources. The primary focus of the selected quotations is the oil painting of landscapes. Some references to other mediums and subjects are included as needed to complete the intent of the statements. Both plein air and studio work is considered.
