19. COMPARE / CONTRAST

22. WHY?

23. “Every form introduced into the picture is
within view from a given point, but the
relations of the separate parts to one
another are not always preserved….My aim
was to bring before the public the
character of that region.”
(emphasis added)

24. “I place no value upon literal transcripts
from Nature. My general scope is not
realistic; all my tendencies are toward
idealization….The motive…was the
gorgeous display of color that impressed
itself upon me. Probably no scenery in the
world presents such a combination.”
