George Price Boyce And The Consolation Of Landscape, Julia Chandler L'Enfant

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

George Price Boyce (1826-1897) is little known today except by his diaries, which chronicle his association with the Pre-Raphaelite circle in London from 1851 to 1875. Yet in his own day Boyce was widely admired for his watercolor landscapes, and after 1864 was a leading member of the select Royal Water-Colour Society. His landscapes were thought to have a special, even eccentric quality, particularly his work from about 1859 to 1870, generally acknowledged to be his best.

It included the exploration of assorted media and different styles of execution in a search for imagery to represent the scope of my life experience.

The seven photographs were to appear simple and quiet. I have done some photography before entering graduate work. …
