Imagem, Paisagem e Turismo: a construção do olhar romântico
Abstract
This review discusses the notion of landscape as it emerges thematically in the Romantic painting. The romantic construction of image as it is systematic in the landscape in that period prioritized the picturesque, ie, the nature as a harmonic and welcoming garden. This article is affiliated to Barthes text theory and it aims to link this landscape aesthetics to tourism, considering it as social and economic phenomenon that was structured and expanded in the same period. The aesthetics of the picturesque will mark not only the first destinations of mountain and coastal areas as will be present throughout the twentieth century tourism visually
