As of 2015, a number of National Trust properties have occupied the property.
The 'answer' was unveiled in a single show - Landscape Artist of the Year: National Trust Favorites - which was broadcast on Sky Arts on 2 February to celebrate the National Trust buildings - and accompanying plaques. (Note: the program will re-air on different days and times this week.)
Furthermore? There were absolutely no 5 or 6 landscape series and only 14 landscape series in the top ten - polls in 2019, 2020 - and 2018 respectively - but there were some amazing landscape paintings owned by the National Trust in this series. ...
I think this is because the National Trust properties were very specific in rounds 1, 2 and 3 - then very few in rounds 4, 5 and 6. To emphasize my point - I have one of the below right now Qualifiers written and reviewed!
Anyway, the software was a very nice and satisfying combination of:
- A roundup of the top 10 paintings - by audience - to win the series playoffs since 2015 (but which series???)
- An introduction to places you've never been and a reminder of previous visits to specific websites you've visited.
The ten best paintings will be chosen by the public. So there is no interference from the judges - this is a show for everyone who writes every week that they disagree with the judges!!
Share your thoughts on your favorite paintings from the countries we love in a special episode of Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year.

The panels are explained in reverse order - so that's the order I'll use below. I refer to the website and the artist - and link where it goes without saying.
Some of the profile information comes from the always useful blog posts from Cass Arts - the program partner.
