Landscape is a truly enduring theme in art. It can be seen hanging on the walls of art novices, established collectors and just about everyone in between in some form. Whether it’s a painting, a print or a photograph, landscape art is not just a reflection of the world around us, but a deeply personal and emotional expression of how we connect with nature.

Art and film: a timeless duo

The relationship between art and film has a complex connection that stretches back to the dawn of cinema in the late 19th century. Captivating audiences and challenging norms, the two are tightly bound by their shared visual power, storytelling and use of both legacy techniques and new technology, meaning the notional bridge between the two mediums is regularly crossed. We explore the film-art crossover that has resulted in both still and moving masterpieces for over a century.
