Visionary Romantics. Balke, Lucas, Hertervig

By Knut Ljøgodt & Carlos Sanchez Díez (eds.)

The catalogue was published in connection to the exhibition Visionary Romantics at the Museo Lázaro Galdiano, spring 2023 Madrid, and Stavanger Art Museum, automn 2023. The book and exhibition brings together works by three Romantic artists: the Norwegians Peder Balke
(1804–1887) and Lars Hertervig (1830–1902), and the Spaniard Eugenio Lucas Velázquez (1817–1870). Drawing a parallel between their respective landscapes, they show how these artists captured their inner visions of
nature through experimental techniques that to an extent foreshadowed the loose manner of Impressionism and other modern painting movements.

A parallell edition in Spanish was published simultaneaously.
