Stanley Plumly explores immortality in art through the work of two
impressive landscape artists: John Constable and J.M.W. Turner.
Seeking the transcendent aesthetic awe of the sublime and reeling
from personal tragedy, these painters portrayed the terrible beauty
of the natural world from an intimate, close-up perspective. Plumly
studies the paintings against the pull of the artists' lives,
probing how each finds the sublime in different, though connected,
worlds. At once a meditation on the difficulties in achieving truly
immortal works of art and an exploration of the relationship
between artist and artwork, Elegy Landscapes takes a wide-angled
look at the philosophy of the sublime.
