Courbet and the modern landscape

Morton, Mary G.

Courbet and the modern landscape / Mary G. Morton - Los Angeles : J. Paul Getty Museum , 2006 - 140 p. : illus. ; 29 cm

Drawing inspiration from natural motifs, Gustave Courbet reset the course of French painting to embrace immediacy, vitality, and painterly self-expression. This 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-Comte and on the shores of the Normandy coast a consistently rich source of visual stimulation
