Each picture is in the form of a landscape painting, in which the traditional elements of natural beauty have been supplanted with factories, chimneys, bridges and other elements of an industrial city environment.
One of the most noted Industrial Landscape pieces is a 1955 painting in the Tate Gallery in London; other paintings of the same title are held in the collections of several galleries around the United Kingdom, such as The Lowry in Salford, while others are in private collections.
