Book Synopsis Bayard Taylor Berndt by : David Berndt
Download or read book Bayard Taylor Berndt written by David Berndt and published by . This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his foreword, John Schoonover, dean of Wilmington's storied art community, explains why Bayard Berndt was one of its leaders from 1950 until his death in 1987. In his introductory comments, Charles Allmond, Wilmington sculptor and friend of the artist, remembers Bayard's life-long interest in history and art and explains how Wilmington became a center for art. The artist's son, David Berndt, remembers his father in a charming narrative before discussing his art, which he presents in thirteen thematic collections. Bayard Berndt was taught to paint by Howard Pyle-trained illustrators: Thornton Oakley, Stanley Arthurs, N.C. Wyeth, and Frank Schoonover. His early works reflect his interaction with these illustrators while teaching at the Wilmington Academy of Art. Soon after marrying one of his students in 1935, Bayard and his wife Rita moved ten miles north of Wilmington to Fairville, Pennsylvania where they lived for the rest of their lives. David notices the transition that took place in his father's art after moving to the rolling hills of Chester County. Over the next 50 years, he painted hundreds of plein aire scenes along Brandywine Creek and in its surrounding countryside. After WWII Bayard became the proprietor of Wilmington's most popular art supply and framing shop. His freedom to paint was limited by his responsibilities as a businessman. During the following decade he developed two artistic styles fitting with his double career. He became colorist and brush virtuoso painting rapidly to capture fleeting outdoor light. His works in this genre are reminiscent of Charles Woodbury and George Bellows, and N.C. Wyeth. In his studio, he painted mural-like scenes of historic Wilmington. His works in this genre are reminiscent of Thomas Hart Benton, Grant Wood. The book contains many wonderful examples of both genres. David introduces each collection of paintings with maps that show where they were painted. Many paintings are accompanied by "asides" which highlight the forgotten past of a Brandywine Valley landmark. The book is thus an artistic travelogue through the Brandywine Valley. It is perfect for browsing and a delightful memorial to Bayard Berndt's love of art and history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bayard Taylor (1825–1878) was a nineteenth-century American who combined in his writings and career a catalog of accomplishments and creations that made him one of the most celebrated literary men of his time. The range and significance of Taylor’s oeuvre explains his growing importance today to scholars working in the fields of American studies, gender and queer theory, and the aesthetics of racial and class identities. In less than 35 years, he wrote seventeen volumes of poetry, four novels, eight critical works and translations of German classics, nineteen travel narratives, innumerable magazine essays, stories, and reviews, and thousands of letters to friends, admirers, hostile reviewers, business acquaintances, and intimate male companions. His extraordinary success on the public lecture circuit made him one of the best-known men of his day. Taylor's diplomatic career enhanced his reputation and influence as a travel writer and included service as a writer for the Perry Expedition to Japan, as a charge d’affaires to Russia during the Civil War, and ambassador to Germany in 1878. This analysis of Taylor’s life and works helps to explain three important shifts in American culture: the contradictory development of American ethnocentrism and cosmopolitanism in the nineteenth century; the impact of homophobia and homophilia upon American literary production, criticism, and culture; and the inspirational role played by poetry within a religious and economically-driven society. The introduction describes Taylor's changing fortunes within literary history and presents a methodological approach to the Genteel tradition that recovers its distinctive aesthetic and social values and explains how Taylor is its most winning and significant representative. Taylor was a key figure in the genealogy of American interactions with the Islamic world, and his travel writing demonstrates how individual advancement in an egalitarian society can be linked with aggressive imperialism abroad. Taylor’s novels display a subtle pattern of transgressive sexuality and demonstrate how Taylor's manipulation of reputation and genteel aesthetics created a space for individual expression and freedom. Taylor’s 1870 novel, Joseph and His Friend, is frequently cited as America's first gay novel. This book's analysis of Taylor’s poetry draws the strands of egalitarian racialization and male-male intimacy together with his abiding concern with regional American identities and the mixed influences of religious subcultures.
