SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT

I am working on a university project, and I am creating this editing this stub because it was requested in the WikiProject.Danube School The most common section headings in the Philosophy/Aesthetics project regarded background, the key figures, the underlying philosophy, key moments in the history of the movement and then a section on influence where criticisms and reception are discussed.

a. I would suggest adding the above headings because they are common across articles relating to aesthetics and they would help structure the discussion of the movement.

b. The WikiProject would want my work because I am suggesting revisions that allow for consistency throughout the project.

c. I would suggest reading the Metropolitan Museum’s article Genre Painting in Northern Europe because it could contribute the facts around background and the underlying philosophy of the movement. Here is the source:

Meagher, Jennifer. “Genre Painting in Northern Europe.” In Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History. New York: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2000–. http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/gnrn/hd_gnrn.htm (April 2008)--Maimonides Marxe (talk) 05:20, 18 September 2018 (UTC).

Source material

I think this article could benefit from some more variety of source material and improved citation formatting. I've included some sources that I think would be beneficial to this article but I don't have access to currently.

• "Landscape" by Erika Langmuir (Yale University Press, 1997) - This book is a pocket guide to landscapes and contains a section on the Danube School
• "Wolf Huber studies : aspects of Renaissance thought and practice in Danube School painting" by Patricia Rose (Garland Pub., 1977) - This book could help improve both the notable artists section and the characteristics of the Danube school section
• "Der Wald in der Malerei und der Graphik des Donaustils" by Margit Stadlober (Böhlau, 2006) - The title of this book loosely translates to "The Forest in the Paintings and Imagery of the Danube School" and I think it would be a great asset to improve this article. Unfortunately I only have an access record of it and not the actual book.
• "Malerei der Donauschule" by Alfred Strange (Bruckmann, 1971) - The title of this book is "Painting of the Danube School" and appears to be fairly extensive from its access record. I'm not able to find a copy of this one.

If any other editors speak German and are able to translate source material into English, I think this article could greatly improve. For such a notable topic in the history of German art, I'm amazed that I was unable to find more sources in English. Kmitchell2015 (talk) 05:21, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

There will be plenty in English. For example, Wood, Christopher S., Albrecht Altdorfer and the Origins of Landscape, 1993, Reaktion Books, London, ISBN 0948462469 is a significant book. I'm dubious that the recent changes by your colleague are an improvement, so far. Johnbod (talk) 13:30, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
