Landscape blends nature and human response. A landscape requires selective viewing and a frame. Landscape art was much esteemed in the eighteenth century and later became less common. Since the rise of environmental concerns, interest in landscape aesthetics has vigorously returned, although not especially in landscape painting. Ronald Hepburn complained that twentieth century aesthetics had neglected natural beauty. Experience on landscapes is multi-sensory. Certain landscapes have an archetypal appeal. A provocative claim is that natural landscapes in and of themselves are always beautiful.born digitalchapters (layout features)eng©2014 Oxford University Press.Copyright and other restrictions may apply.
