Summary:"Merging art, science, and history, this book explores the broad arc of ecological events on the island--the formation and abandonment of pastureland, forest recovery, and the critical importance of land conservation--through their representation in visual art. Indeed, for well over a century, painters, photographers, printmakers, and cartographers alike have observed and depicted this dynamic landscape" --
