Anotace knihy

Gilpin's travels round Britain resulted first in Observations on the River Wye (1782), published in this series in 1991 (see p. 19 of this catalogue). The two volumes on Cumberland and Westmoreland, which followed four years later, are perhaps still more important in their development of the theory of the picturesque, and in their influence on the writer's fellow Cumbrian, Wordsworth (then at Hawkshead Grammar School). Gilpin encouraged in Wordsworth and his generation the imaginative remaking of natural scenes, as opposed to the topographical tradition of taking Nature as it came. His assumption was that whether or not his readers were going to paint a particular scene, they had to be taught to see. His interpretation (with its aquatints) of the Lake District has absorbing interest for all who are concerned with perception in the period.
