Maggie M. Cao explores the pictorial practices that challenged, mourned, or revised the conventions of landscape painting, a major cultural project for nineteenth-century Americans. Through rich analysis of artworks at the genre's unsettling limits--landscapes that self-destruct, masquerade as currency, or even take flight--Cao shows that experiments in landscape played a crucial role in the American encounter with modernity. Landscape is the genre through which American art most urgently sought to come to terms with the modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47573889679511,"sku":"9780520291423","price":6793.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780520291423.webp?v=1774894062","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-end-of-landscape-in-nineteenth-century-america-9780520291423","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
