Although considered a minor genre for a long time, landscape painting has risen above its predecessors - religious and historic painting - to become a genre of its own. Giorgione in Italy, the Brueghels of the Flemish School, Lorrain and Poussin of the French School, the Dutch landscape painters, and Turner and Constable of England, are just a few of the great landscapists who have left their indelible mark on the history of pictorial landscapes and the art of painting as a whole.

After a long time serving simply as a backdrop for paintings and as a skill-practising exercise for artists, nature came to be observed for its own sake and was incorporated into works of art as an illustration of an enlightened and scientific study of the world. Through continual change, it has inspired the greatest painters and has allowed some others, like Turner, to transcend the relentless search for mere realism in pictorial representation.

Through this study, �mile Michel offers an exceptional panorama, from the 15th century to the present, of art and the way artists portray the world in all its splendour.

Michel, Émile: - Honorary chairman of the University of Amsterdam, Émile Michel remains a reference in Flemish painting with his monographies such as Rubens: His Life, Works and Times and The Brueghels, also published by Parkstone Press. A result of years of research, Rembrandt: Painter, Engraver and Draftsman is one of his major works.
