2. Landscape in Painting
Before the camera
landscapes were painted,
many artists were able to
capture the beauty of the
nature that is now mainly
shown through photography.
John Constable – The Hay Way,
1821
This image shows a way of rural life that was
beginning to vanish at this time.

3. J.W.M Turner –Rain, Steam and Speed – The Great
Western Railway, before 1844

4. William Dyce – Pegwell Bay, 1858-60
This image although of
the sea falls into the
landscape category.
As there are people
within the painting it
could also be seen as a
portrait.

5. Paul Cezanne -The Forest,
1885-1887?

6. David Bomberg, 1890-1957 - Tregor and Tregoff,
Cornwall, 1947

7. Landscape Photography
The first photograph
was taken in 1825/6
from then on landscape
photography began to
rival the painters.
Albert Renger-Patzsch – Beech
Wood, 1936
This image shows the simple beauty of
the nature.

8. Ansel Adams - Moonrise over Hernandez new
Mexico, 1941

9. More Ansel Adams
The Tetons--Snake
River, Wyoming, 1942
Bridalveil Fall
In my opinion Ansel Adams is one of the
greatest landscape photographers as his
images are so detailed, clear and
beautiful.

Luxembourg, Paris, 1955

19. Seascape
Joel Meyerowitz –

This image shows that the
category of landscape can
also include seascapes. This
image could also be seen as a
portrait can I feel it was
probably intended as a
portrait due to the title.
