The exhibition in 1760 of Richard Wilson’s canvas The Destruction of Niobe’s Children inaugurated a new, revolutionary category of painting. By melding the established genres of landscape and history painting, the artist created a challenging hybrid: historical landscape. Praised by an anonymous critic for its “Greatness of Idea, beautiful composition, and admirable effect,” Niobe established Wilson’s reputation as an artist capable of rivaling his French and Italian counterparts, an extraordinary achievement at a time when indigenous art was considered inferior to European art by British connoisseurs. Wilson’s transformative vision earned him the title of the “father of British landscape painting,” and had a decisive impact both on his pupils, notably William Hodges, and the following generation of artists. — —
Organized to complement the exhibition William Hodges, 1744–1797: The Art of Exploration, and selected from the Center’s rich collections of paintings, prints, drawings, and rare books, Nobleness and Grandeur charted the development of historical landscape from its genesis in the mid-eighteenth century by Hodges’s mentor Richard Wilson to its culmination in the Romantic period. — —
Featuring some of Wilson’s most celebrated historical landscapes as well as works by Hodges, Thomas Gainsborough, John Hamilton Mortimer, John Martin, J. M. W. Turner, and John Constable, the exhibition offered new insights into the role played by landscape painting in the development of the political and artistic identity of eighteenth-century Britain. — —

The exhibition was organized by the Center and curated by Olivia Horsfall Turner, a graduate student in the History of Art, University College London, previously a graduate student in the History of Art, Yale University. — —

The eighteenth century in Britain witnessed an extraordinary flourishing of the practice of drawing, among both professional artists and amateurs. This exhibition of one hundred outstanding drawings and watercolors from the Yale Center for British Art celebrated the richness and diversity of its eighteenth century holdings—rivaled only by the great national collections in London—and examined the professional and social roles played by draftsmanship during the period. Among the highlights were works by William Blake, Alexander and John Robert Cozens, Henry Fuseli, Thomas Gainsborough, Allan Ramsay, Paul Sandby, and William Hogarth (whose controversial and innovative theory of the “Line of Beauty” suggested the title for the exhibition). — —
Ranging from large-scale highly finished exhibition watercolors to informal sketches intended for private use and enjoyment, the drawings were arranged in illuminating thematic and contextual groupings: the portrait, landscape, the city, science and natural history, sports and amusements, and the life of the artist. — —
Credits — —
Curated at the Center by Scott Wilcox, Curator of Prints and Drawings, and Gillian Forrester, Assistant Curator of Prints and Drawings, The Line of Beauty also featured drawing manuals and instructional literature of the period, selected from the Center’s rich collection of rare books.

The Alsatian artist Phillppe Jacques de Loutherbourg arrived in London in 1771, having already established himself in Paris as a successful painter of pastoral landscapes and dramatic shipwreck scenes. with an introduction to the actor-manager David Garrick, Loutherbourg gained employment designing scenery for productions at the Drury Lane Theatre. He also explored the beauties of the English and Welsh countryside, making pioneering use of the actual scenery of Britain in his theatrical work, in paintings exhibited at the Royal Academy, and in publications. ---
This Pastoral landscape, which may well predate Loutherbourg's move to England, is a decorative artificial construct rather than a transcript of nature. In that sense it is not far removed from the synthetic approach to landscape advocated by Alexander Cozens, and its components - the watering cattle in a shaded pool, the sleeping herd boy, the tête-à-tête of hunter and milkmaid - are very much the standard elements of Thomas Gainsborough's landscape creations, though rendered with a delicacy and fastidiousness of touch in place of Gainsborough's bravura draftsmanship. Loutherbourg and Gainsborough were in fact friends, and a portrait sketch of Gainsborough by Loutherbourg is in the Yale Center for British Art. --- ---
