Thomas Baines, master of landscape storytelling

Influenced by topographic realism and exploration narratives of his time, he left behind valuable works for the visual history of the territories he traversed. Among his famous works are studies of fauna, scenes of colonization, and landscapes crossed, where technique serves testimony.
