:New roads and, later, railways were essential for the modernisation and rapid economic development of north-western Italy in the early nineteenth century. The new routes also encouraged an increasing number of foreign travellers to visit the region. They opened up fresh tracts of countryside and provided novel viewpoints and points of interest; many travellers took the opportunity to record these views with topographical drawings and watercolours. In this article we make use of some of these views to examine how the modernised transport routes released new places to be celebrated by tourists and became themselves features and objects of especial interest and comment. We examine the works of three artists, one English and two Italian, who depicted landscapes of contrasting rural Ligurian landscapes. Their drawings and prints are contextualised and interpreted with maps, field data, archival documents and contemporary descriptions of roads and railways by travellers and in guidebooks.

19 世纪利古里亚的旅行、现代性和乡村景观

: 新的公路和后来的铁路对于 19 世纪初意大利西北部的现代化和经济快速发展至关重要。新航线也鼓励越来越多的外国游客到访该地区。他们开辟了新的乡村,提供了新颖的观点和兴趣点;许多旅行者借此机会用地形图和水彩画记录了这些景色。在本文中,我们将利用其中的一些观点来研究现代化的交通路线如何释放出新的游客可以庆祝的地方,并成为他们特别感兴趣和评论的特色和对象。我们研究了三位艺术家的作品,一位英国人和两位意大利人,他们描绘了对比鲜明的利古里亚乡村景观。
