Following official protection of natural environments for public
benefit in Fontainebleau Forest in France (1861) and in Yosemite
(1864) and Yellowstone (1872) in the USA, the New Forest Act of
1877 marked the first major instance in Britain. Art and artists
were involved in this achievement to a greater extent than in all
preceding cases. For the first time, and within an ecocritical
framework, this study examines the role played by art during the
previous anti-enclosure campaign - highlighting both the
hitherto-unacknowledged extent of German influence in terms of the
original artistic initiative and of German artists' participation
in the cause, as well as the significance of connections between
landscape art of the day and priorities of the early Open Spaces
movement. Ecocriticism in art history With works by the German and
British artists George Bouverie Goddard, Wilhelm Kumpel, Alfred
Pizzi Newton, Wilhelm Trautschold, Edmund George Warren
