Pressestimmen
"Rachael Ziady DeLue undertakes the Herculean task of plumbing the depths of a highly complex and multifaceted mind to uncover many of the whys surrounding this often misunderstood artist.... Chapter by chapter, DeLue peels back the layers of a very complex man, revealing Inness's tireless pursuit of the perfect landscape model through which God could be revealed." - Kraig Binkowski, Art Documentation"
Kurzbeschreibung
George Inness (1825-94) is considered one of America's greatest landscape painters. A complicated artist and thinker, he painted stunning, evocative views of the American countryside.Throughout his career, Inness struggled to make visible what was invisible to the human eye by combining a deep interest in nineteenth-century scientific inquiry - including optics, psychology, physiology, and mathematics - with an idiosyncratic brand of mysticism. Rachael Ziady DeLue's "George Inness and the Science of Landscape" - the first in-depth examination of Inness' career to appear in several decades - demonstrates how the artistic, spiritual, and scientific aspects of Inness' art found expression in his masterly landscapes. In fact, Inness' practice was not merely shaped by his preoccupation with the nature and limits of human perception; he conceived of his labor as a science in its own right. This beautifully illustrated work reveals Inness' profound investment in the science and philosophy of his time and illuminates the complex manner in which the fields of art and science intersected in nineteenth-century America.

God's Landscapes
17. März 2005
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a terrific book, beautiful and thought-provoking, about one of America's best and most intriguing artists. The author shows how Inness' desire to help people see more deeply, to see God behind the landscapes, shaped his paintings. It is a delight to read how ideas have consequences in art; how deliberate Inness was in his project; and then to see how gorgeous his paintings are.
The only reason it does not get 5 stars from me? Not enough color plates. But it really is a fine book.

Both good and bad.

It is with no end of begrudging that I award five stars to this book. It is unconscionable that University of Chicago Press published this fabulous text on Inness' work, but included a mere twenty-one color prints, at that most of them two a page, and charges $50 for it! If you consider buying it, do so with the sure knowledge that Dr. DeLue's work is a classic, not to be missed, her analysis extremely depthful, her prose elegant. As for UofC Press, how greedy. For shame!

Expected more color plates
29. Juni 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
There were 21 color plates. Some of the color plates were not very large. It was my fault for not checking more, before I purchased the book. Lots of history to read, but I was more interested in seeing the paintings of George Inness. Many black and white photos, which are helpful, in seeing values in paintings. Perhaps by the time I read all of the book, I will be much happier with my purchase.
