English art is the body of art originating from England. Nikolaus Pevsner attempted a definition in his 1956 book The Englishness of English Art.
It has developed over several millennia, to recent movements such as Brit Art,which now encompasses a variety of forms — painting, photography, sculpture and performance art.
It is often considered that English landscape painting typifies the tradition of English art, mirroring as it does the development of the country house and its landscaping. Famous English artists include JMW Turner and John Constable.
