Download or read book John Golding written by Dawn Ades and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Golding (1929-2012) was a British artist, scholar and curator.Perhaps best known for his seminal book, Cubism: A history and an Analysis 1907-1914 (1959) he actually considered himself primarily a painter and exhibited extensively both in the UK and internationally during a career that spanned almost six decades. In retrospect, his reputation as a notable art historian somewhat, arguably, overshadowed his own practice as an artist. So, this new monograph endeavours to reveal and celebrate the other side of his oeuvre.'Golding's knowledge of Renaissance painting, especially the great Venetians [...] informed his own work as he moved out of figuration and into abstract canvases in which light was the subject. He painted vertical streaks of colour down his canvases like pleated light (as he put it) and occasionally on, say, a misty blue, he would scatter clusters of gold pigment to reflect the actual light. After the end of the 20th century, he started to structure his paintings so that they appeared to be based on photographs from thousands of feet above the Earth, with 'roads' and 'bridges' and 'canals'...' - Michael McNay, 2012 (The Guardian)Golding's work was additionally shown alongside Bridget Riley, John Hoyland, Frank Auerbach, Peter Blake and David Hockney in important group exhibitions in London such as, British Painting 74' at Hayward Gallery and, British Painting 1952-77 at the Royal Academy of Arts.

Download or read book Paul Delaroche written by Stephen Bann and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 1997 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Delaroche's works were heralded as masterpieces in the nineteenth century, and the man himself was lauded in 1853 by one Italian critic as "at the summit of all living painters." But while his paintings themselves are still familiar to many, Delaroche the artist fell into almost total obscurity during the twentieth century. Stephen Bann addresses this lacuna in art scholarship, presenting an in-depth examination of Delaroche's career. Bann situates Delaroche and his wide-ranging oeuvre in the context of early nineteenth-century visual culture. From his early historical paintings to experimental pieces influenced by photography, the book analyzes each stage of Delaroche's artistic development--as well as his major masterpieces such as The Execution of Lady Jane Grey and The Princes in the Tower. Bann also analyzes the numerous reproductions of Delaroche's works in a variety of visual mediums, including engravings by Mercuri and Henriquel-Dupont, lithographs, popular prints, and the photographs that illustrated Delaroche's first retrospective catalog. An unparalleled and lushly illustrated study, Paul Delaroche restores a neglected master to his rightful place in nineteenth-century European art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Delaroche was a hugely popular painter during his lifetime, first making his name with a series of historical scenes which enjoyed great acclaim at the Paris Salon. His renown extended far beyond his native country. Honored by almost every major academy, his pictures were sought by collectors in Britain, Germany, and Russia. One of his British patrons, Richard Seymour Conway (1800-1870), 4th Marquis of Hertford, acquired ten of his oil paintings and two watercolors. This group, one of the most extensive outside France, is in The Wallace Collection, which houses Lord Hertford's collections in what was once his London residence. Curator Stephen Duffy discusses in detail the twelve works, and in an introductory essay examines the life and career of the artist, on whom there will be also an exhibition at the National Gallery, London, 2010.

Download or read book The Narrow Sea written by Peter Unwin and published by Headline Book Pub Limited. This book was released on 2003 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English Channel separates Britain from Europe, keeping invaders out of Britain and making the island and islanders different from the continent and their fellow Europeans. But the Channel also serves as a link between mainland and island, bearing settlers, missionaries, merchants, refugees and conquerors back and forth over the millennia. Explorers and adventurers have sailed its waters, and leaders from Julius Caesar to Napoleon and Hitler have battled for sovereignty over these narrow seas. Peter Unwin tells the story of the English Channel from the land-bridge that linked Britain to the continent nine thousand years ago to the Channel tunnel of the 21st century, charting the landscape and seascape of northern Europe's gateway to the oceans.

Book Synopsis The Life and Work of James Ward, R.A., 1769-1859 by : Oliver Beckett
Download or read book The Life and Work of James Ward, R.A., 1769-1859 written by Oliver Beckett and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually ignored for a century, the painting of James Ward are at last being re-evaluated, and we are again discovering the charm and skill of one of Britain's foremost animal painters. From a harsh boyhood spent among the crowded tenements and Thames-side wharves of George III's London, Ward became first an engraver of the highest rank and then a painter and Royal Academician with a thriving practice among the aristocracy. Although tending to specialize in horses, prize livestock and other animals, Ward was a notable landscape and portrait painter, and his draughtsmanship was superb. Perhaps best know for his large romantic version of Gordale Scar, in the Tate Gallery, his work also included a vast allegorical painting of the Triumph of Waterloo, ill-received by the public, and since lost. This well-researched biography brings Ward's whole oeuvre into the context of his long life and brings a new dimension to our view of this neglected yet highly talented artist.-- Publisher description.
Book Synopsis Treasures of the Black Death by : Christine Descatoire
Download or read book Treasures of the Black Death written by Christine Descatoire and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the middle of the 14th century, Europe was devastated by an appalling epidemic which killed a third of its population. Accused of having spread the disease, Jewish communities faced terrible persecutions, which often led them to bury their most valuable goods. Two of these hoards, discovered at Colmar in 1863 and at Erfurt in 1998, are discussed and illustrated here. Comprising a great variety of jewelry, gold- and silversmiths' work, and coins, these two hoards constitute an exceptional source for the study of secular metalwork in the 13th and 14th centuries, very few examples of which have otherwise come down to us. They provide precious evidence of the economic activities and daily life of the medieval Jewish communities, but also of their precarious position within Christian Europe. In Erfurt over 1,000 people were killed, the entire Jewish population. Some of the objects, because of their very personal character, are deeply poignant.
