 English school of painting   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Generally, the term "school" is used to designate a special collection of traditions and processes, a particular method, a peculiar style in design, and an equally peculiar taste in colouring - all contributing to the representation of a national ideal existing in the minds of native artists at the same time.
Some other experts are of the opinion that, in the 17th century, the Flemish painter Sir Anthony van Dyck, who came to London in 1632, may be called the founder of an English school of painting, as Many English portraitists were his artistic heirs.
In the 18th and early 19th century, a number of outstanding British artists produced portraits among them were Thomas Gainsborough; Sir Joshua Reynolds, founder of the Royal Academy of Arts; George Romney; Sir Henry Raeburn; and Sir Thomas Lawrence.

At the peak of his career—from the mid-1840s through the 1870s—Cropsey enjoyed fame in both England and the United States for his views of American scenery, particularly his richly colored canvases capturing the glories of the American autumn.

Rather they grimly acknowledged that the list was just business as usual, symptomatic of an increasingly dumbed-down film culture that continues to outflank our shrinking expectations.
But the malaise provoked by the list of 100 movies isn't just a response to the uselessness of the AFI; it's also a response to an increasing lack of distinction between corporate greed and what used to be called public works.
I've also decided to list my choices alphabetically rather than impose an order based on merit, since that would be tantamount to ranking oranges over apples or declaring cherries superior to grapes.

 Contemporary British Landscape Painters
British Contemporary landscape artists featured on Art Angel include Howard Coles, and Jim Whitty, both generating excitement in the British Art scene as their work becomes widely know and increasingly critically appraised.
Many of the Artists featured on Art Angel have landscape painting as a major or central part of their work, although would probably not want to be labeled as "landscape artists"; it is, at least, contemporary landscape painting, and rather uses landscape as a medium for expressing change.
Both Howard Coles and Jim Whitty, whist at either end of a generational spectrum (!) are set to make an impact on the British Art scene as they are increasingly realised as major British Contemporary artists.
