PANORAMAS OF THE FAR EAST: Photographs by Lois Conner (Smithsonian Institution Press: $15.95; 61 pp., paperback original). The Smithsonian’s excellent “Photographers at Work” series continues with a celebration of Lois Conner’s stunning vistas of East Asia. A concise interview and technical notes supplement the unusually clear reproductions. The most striking pictures reveal that the great Sung Dynasty painters didn’t stylize their work, they merely depicted the landscapes they saw.
