Homer Martin: Poet In Landscape is a book written by Frank Jewett Mather Jr. and published in 1912. The book is a biography of Homer Martin, an American landscape painter who was active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Mather Jr. provides a detailed account of Martin's life, including his childhood in Albany, New York, his early artistic training in New York City, and his travels throughout Europe and the United States. Throughout the book, Mather Jr. emphasizes Martin's unique artistic style, which he describes as a poetic approach to landscape painting. Martin's work was characterized by a focus on the atmospheric effects of light and color, as well as a sense of quiet contemplation and introspection. Mather Jr. argues that Martin's paintings were deeply influenced by his personal experiences and emotions, and that his work represented a departure from the more objective, scientific approach to landscape painting that was popular at the time.In addition to providing a biography of Martin, the book also includes numerous reproductions of his paintings, as well as critical analyses of his work by contemporary art critics. Mather Jr. argues that Martin's work represents an important contribution to the development of American landscape painting, and that his unique artistic vision continues to resonate with viewers today. Overall, Homer Martin: Poet In Landscape is a comprehensive and insightful study of one of America's most important landscape painters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
