Author: George Clausen
Location: Internet Archive

This is a series of lectures delivered by the author to the students of the Royal Academy of Arts in London, January 1904. George Clausen was an English artist working in oil and watercolour, etching, mezzotint, dry point and occasionally lithographs. He became one of the foremost modern painters of landscape and of peasant life, influenced to a certain extent by the impressionists with whom he shared the view that light is the real subject of landscape art. As Professor of Painting, George Clausen gave this memorable series of lectures to the students of the schools, published as Six Lectures on Painting (1904) and Aims and Ideals in Art (1906).
