The Dark Side of the Landscape: The Rural Poor in English Painting 1730–1840
John Barrell
John Barrell's influential 1980 study shows why the poor began to be of such interest to painters, and examines the ways in which they could be represented so as to be an acceptable part of the décor of the salons of the rich. His terse and vigourous account has provided a landmark for literary critics, social and art historians.
