- William Gilpin's _Tour to the Lakes_ and His Idea of "Picturesque"IWAI ShigeakiIkoma Journal of Economics 15 (1) 127 - 142 2017/07After publishing his An Essay upon Prints in 1768, William Gilpin began several tours around the British Island starting 1769. The records of his travels were published as a series later in his life. One of such writings, Tour to the Lakes published in 1786 was based on the record of his“picturesque tour"to the Lake District in 1772. While the subject of Gilpin's theory of picturesque beauty in An Essay upon Prints was artificial productions created by the masters of prints, in Tour to the Lakes his aesthetic theory was applied to evaluate the beauty of natural landscapes. The ideas of“picturesque eye"and“imagination"play important roles in his discussions of landscape beauty.
- IWAI ShigeakiIkoma Journal of Economics 近畿大学経済学会 12 (1) 21 - 45 1348-8686 2014/07In his Observation on the River Wye published in 1782, William Gilpin criticizes the landscape descriptions made by the poet John Dyer in his landscape poem"Grongar Hill"(1726). Gilpin's criticism is based on his "Principles of Picturesque Beauty" and he indicates that many of Dyer's landscape descriptions deviate from such principles. Why Gilpin is very strict on the "Principles of Picturesque Beauty" ? The author attributes Gilpin's adherence to the principles to his view of nature, and argues that his principles are the only means to visualize the"invisible"in nature, which is the harmonious wholeness hidden from the human eye.
