The soul of all scenery : a history of the sky in art/ by Gedzelman, Stanley David,1944-;
The Soul of All Scenery is the definitive cultural and natural history of artistic discovery of the atmosphere's many faces - its colors, optical phenomena, clouds, signs of changing weather, and marks of climate, starting from the Ice Age and continuing to the present. Painted and real skies are compared and explained using a scientific perspective that has, in many cases, become available only during the past century, and long after many of the early artists first portrayed phenomena they identified but could not understand.
