Description

This is the audio version of the blog post 'Looking Through Different Laws Of Landscape'. The post was written by Alia Ahmad, who did a student placement with the digitisation project, and was first published on 4 December 2017. The audio version is read by digitisation volunteer Verity Babbs.

In this blog, Alia considers the presentation of landscape in the works of three artists: paintings by Édouard Manet, sketches by Federico Barocci, and photographs by Anthony Kersting. Copies of Manet and Barocci's work can be found in the Courtauld Institute of Art’s Witt Library. The Witt is a collection of over two million photographs, reproductions and cuttings of paintings, drawings and engravings of Western Art from around 1200 to the early 2000s. Kersting's collection of photographic negatives and prints is held in the Conway Library at the Courtauld.
