National Life & Landscapes: Australian Painting 1900-1940 by Ian Burn is an important study of Australian landscape painting and national identity in the first half of the twentieth century. Burn examines the role of landscape imagery in Australian cultural history and reassesses artists and traditions that had often been treated as conservative or peripheral within modernist art history.
