Landscape Painting at the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC

I wish I'd taken this self-guided tour brochure with me today, although it scarcely mentions the great Dutch landscape artists.

A few snaps from the NGA collection:

 Salisbury Cathedral, John Constable

 Natural Arch at Capri ,William Stanley Haseltine-
 not Durdle Door or Monet's Cliff at Etretat  or Courbet's- 
or this scene from Homer's Odyssey

Two outdoor conversation pieces worthy of a John Berger or Ann Bermingham commentary:

Arthur Devis

(Charles Harrison discusses another Devis painting, The James Family (1751)
 in his essay "The Effects of Landscape" in Landscape and Power (ed. W.J.T.Mitchell, 2nd ed., 2002)

George Stubbs
