Publisher's Comments
Written by the collection's former curator, this text discusses ten pictures from the Huntington collection which demonstrate the wide variety of styles and forms produced in Britain during the period between 1740 and 1840. Some of the works examined include Thomas Gainsborough's The Blue Boy and Richard Wilson's River Scene with Bathers . The volume is lavishly illustrated throughout with color photographs of the ten pictures and other works by the artists and their contemporaries. Annotation c.
