Exhibition History

Luminous Landscapes

May 27 - August 14, 2005

Even though the main thrust in the development of landscape painting in the early 19th century veered toward naturalism, there was a continuing interest in and demand for architectural subjects, especially as illustrations for books with views of towns both in Britain and on the Continent. The detailed line drawing, so prominent in Prout’s picturesque watercolors, made his work well suited to meet that need, and much of his work was translated into prints.
