The concept of the picturesque refers, in its Italian origin, to the point of view assumed by the painter which is later elaborated as a theory in England between 1730 and. The picturesque becomes a way of looking at the landscape following the criteria taken from a painting. Applying artistic rules on nature will evidence the need to adapt the way of looking, the need to look appropriately to perfect the landscape canvas. In the aforementioned period, there is rich theoretical and literary metadiscourse, including essays by Rev. William Gilpin or Uvedale Price, as well as William Wordsworth’s poetry and travel guides. The present article aims to draw an analytical outline of the picturesque in England between 1730 and 1830.Downloads
