About this Event

This four week course explores the art of the topography and built landscape, by looking at four distinct periods of history. Beginning with the first stirrings of western landscape art in the Renaissance, we continue by studying landscape development in the Netherlands and East Anglia, and the art which accompanied it. Our focus then switches to the creation of the English rural idyll and its portrayal by artists such as John Constable. We conclude by thinking about how artists have perceived our world since the First World War and ecological representation in the twentieth century.

Tutors: Very Rev David Brindley Dr Hadrian Cook.

The course takes place over four Saturday mornings: 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th of November between 10.15 and 12.30 at Salisbury Museum in the Close. There will be a local guided landscape walk to illustrate some elements of the taught course.

Venue: Museum Hall

The taught element of this course is accessible via stairs or lift
