Cornell Univ Pr, Sachbücher, Changing Prospects: The View from Mount Holyoke (Englisch, 2002)
34,94 €
Frequent flooding, changing settlement patterns and industrialization have all had a role in altering the view from the summit. The Oxbow became a closed loop bisected by a highway, and marinas punctuate the Connecticut River. From Cole's time to our own, artists including Edward Corbett, Stephen Hannock, Alfred Leslie and Elizabeth Meyersohn have observed and recorded these alterations. Colour plates of their paintings and photographs, reproduced in the book, allow us to track changes to the landscape and to Cole's influence. Contemporary artists both challenge and pay homage to his vision of the scene, even as their images are used to underline the need to preserve the mountain's natural beauty and cultural significance.
