Landmark: The Fields of Landscape Photography is a comprehensive and visually stunning survey of contemporary landscape photography curated by William A. Ewing. The book categorizes the work of over 100 world-renowned photographers into ten distinct themes, ranging from “Sublime” and “Pastoral” to “Scars” and “Control.” By examining how modern photographers engage with the environment—from pristine wilderness to industrial devastation—Ewing illustrates a profound shift in the genre. It is no longer just about beauty; it is a critical dialogue about our planetary footprint, resources, and the complex relationship between humanity and the natural world.
