Since the foundation of the Royal Academy of Arts in 1768, its Member s have included artists committed to landscape painting, addressing the ch anging meaning of ‘truth to nature’ and the discourses surrounding the beau tiful, the sublime and the picturesque. During the 18th and 19th centur ies there was a shift in style in landscape painting, represented here in the works of Gainsborough, the emotionally charged and sublime landscapes of Turner and Constable’s sentimental, romantic scenes.
