Welcome to our podcast as we embark on a deep dive into a key case study exploring beauty, ugliness, and aesthetic experience in the late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth-century landscapes. Prepare to journey from America's Lake George region to the artistic hubs of France and Italy, guided by the musings of Nathaniel Willis. We will unravel the concept of the 'picturesque,' probing its roots and its applications in the realm of landscape art. Alongside us, you'll explore the portfolios of prominent landscape artists from America, France, and Italy, evaluating their interpretations of beauty and the aesthetic quality of their work. You'll also take on vital questions about the inherent and perceived beauty of landscape art and whether it's the artist or the viewer who truly frames its beauty. Join us as we bring textbook theories to life, invoking a rich discussion into an intriguing facet of art. Gear up to challenge your understanding, foster thoughtful debates and gain insights into the blurred lines between beauty, ugliness, and the aesthetic experience. Tune in and immerse yourself in this enlightening exploration.
