Book excerpt: Excerpt from Turner and Girtin's Picturesque Views of English, Scotch, and Welsh Scenery: A Hundred Years Ago When Cooke, the engraver, was bringing out his work of the Rivers Of England, Turner heard that he intended to introduce some plates after Girtin's drawing, and the following colloquy took place between themz - Turner: So you intend to put in some of Girtin's views? Cooke: Yes. Turner: Humph! Who will you get to touch them (tie, the proofs for the engraver to give the proper effect in translating colour into black and white.) Cooke: You. Turner: I shan't. Cooke: 0h! Mr. Turner. Turner: I tell you, I shan't. Cooke: But your long acquaintance with Girtin I Turner: I tell you, I shan't. And so Cooke left him. A few days after, Cooke saw him again, when Turner began with Well, Cooke, I've thought that matter over, and I'll touch the plates for Poor Tom. Poor Tom! Ah! Said Cooke, I thought you would. Yes; I'll touch them for Poor Tom. Poor Tom and he continued repeating the words, Poor Tom, as if to him self. Cooke took the proofs to him, and he worked upon them for a long time, bestowing great care, and making them, as Cooke said, quite his own and, at last, after holding them individually at arm's length, throwing them on the floor, turning them upside down, and flinging them in every direction, he said There, poor Tom! That will do. Poor Tom and Cooke was about to take the impressions away, when Turner, clapping his arm upon them, exclaimed Stop! You must pay me two guineas a piece first.

Book excerpt: From country lanes to thatch roofs, a stroll through the enduring appeal of the nineteenth-century trope of rural English bliss. A Sweet View explores how writers and artists in the nineteenth century shaped the English countryside as a partly imaginary idyll, with its distinctive repertoire of idealized scenery: the village green, the old country churchyard, hedgerows and cottages, scenic variety concentrated into a small compass, snugness and comfort. The book draws on a very wide range of contemporary sources and features some of the key makers of the “South Country” rural idyll, including Samuel Palmer, Myles Birket Foster, and Richard Jefferies. The legacy of the idyll still influences popular perceptions of the essential character of a certain kind of English landscape—indeed for Henry James that imagery constituted “the very essence of England” itself. As A Sweet View makes clear, the countryside idyll forged over a century ago is still with us today.
