at hampton court, brown encountered hannah more in 1782 and she described his "grammatical" manner in her literary terms: ""'now "there said he, pointing his finger, 'i make a comma, and there' pointing to another spot, 'where a more decided turn is proper, i make a colon; at another part, where an interruption is desirable to break the view, a parenthesis; now a full stop, and then i begin another subject'"." brown's patrons saw the idealised landscapes he was creating for them in terms of the italian landscape painters they admired and collected, as kenneth woodbridge first observed in the landscape at stourhead, a "brownian" landscape (with an un-brownian circuit walk) in which brown himself was not involved.
