The Mountains in Art History is the first English-language work to
focus on the mountains as subject matter and source of aesthetic
and spiritual inspiration for painters. This collection of original
essays is written entirely by Wesleyan University students of art
history. The essays examine how artistic representation of
mountains has varied through the lens of specific depictions in
English and American literature, and consider how images of
mountains functioned in conjunction with religion, the sublime, and
Romanticism. These essays by student authors adeptly ruminate on
works by individuals such as William Wordsworth, John Frederick
Kensett, Alexander van Humboldt, Emil Nolde, and Arnold Fanck.
Includes an introduction by professor Peter Mark and a helpful
appendix of the course syllabus and narrative description.
