Download or read book Painting in Britain, 1530 to 1790 written by Ellis Kirkham Waterhouse and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field covered by this volume includes the work and influence of foreign-born painters such as Holbein and Van Dyck as well as native masters from Gower and Milliard to Gainsborough, Stubbs, and Sandby. We can follow step by step the development and flowering of British painting, and can compare, for example, the work of the English Sir Joshua Reynolds with the Scottish Allan Ramsay. Portrait and landscape, history piece, miniature, watercolour, there is a record of them all. The text is both scholarly and readable and the illustrations include well known examples of British painting and others seldom or never before reproduced between the covers of a book. This is the fifth edition of this work, newly enhanced with colour illustrations.

Download or read book British and Irish Paintings in Public Collections written by Christopher Wright and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets a new standard as a work of reference. It covers British and Irish art in public collections from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the end of the nineteenth, and it encompasses nearly 9,000 painters and 90,000 paintings in more than 1,700 separate collections. The book includes as well pictures that are now lost, some as a consequence of the Second World War and others because of de-accessioning, mostly from 1950 to about 1975 when Victorian art was out of fashion. By listing many tens of thousands of previously unpublished works, including around 13,000 which do not yet have any form of attribution, this book becomes a unique and indispensable work of reference, one that will transform the study of British and Irish painting.

Download or read book Picturing Animals in Britain, 1750-1850 written by Diana Donald and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From fine art paintings by such artists as Stubbs and Landseer to zoological illustrations and popular prints, a vast array of animal images was created in Britain during the century from 1750 to 1850. This highly original book investigates the rich meanings of these visual representations as well as the ways in which animals were actually used and abused. What Diana Donald discovers in this fascinating study is a deep and unresolved ambivalence that lies at the heart of human attitudes toward animals. The author brings to light dichotomies in human thinking about animals throughout this key period: awestruck with the beauty and spirit of wild animals, people nevertheless desired to capture and tame them; the belief that other species are inferior was firmly held, yet at the same time animals in stories and fables were given human attributes; though laws against animal cruelty were introduced, the overworking of horses and the allure of sport hunting persisted. Animals are central in cultural history, Donald concludes, and compelling questions about them--then and now--remain unanswered.

Book excerpt: Im Zuge der Etablierung europèaischer Kunstakademien bildeten sich Aufnahmezeremonien aus, die von den zukèunftigen Mitgliedern ein Probestèuck zum Beweis ihrer Fèahigkeiten forderten. Erstmalig wird in diesem Band ein vergleichender Blick auf die Aufnahmeprozeduren der wichtigsten europèaischen Akademien und auf diese faszinierenden, zumeist kleinformatigen Werke geworfen, die eine eigene Gattung der Bildhauerei darstellen. An keinen konkreten Verwendungszweck gebunden und unbeeinflusst durch Auftraggeberwèunsche, ermèoglichten sie ihren Schèopfern nicht nur eine selbstbewusste Zurschaustellung ihrer Fèahigkeiten, sondern luden auch zur Gattungsreflektion ein. Die virtuosen Schaustèucke fèuhren damit vor Augen, was die Bildhauer der Zeit als Aufgaben und Ziele ihrer Kunst ansahen.

Download or read book Scottish Art, 1460-2000 written by Duncan Macmillan and published by Mainstream Publishing Company. This book was released on 2000 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This magnificent volume offers a richly illustrated survey of art in Scotland, from 1460 to the current day. Its main emphasis is on painting and the graphic arts, and its scope clearly establishes the place of visual art in Scottish culture. Placing in perspective the impact of the Reformation and the richness of late medieval art, the book then follows the growth of art in the new Protestant culture through the 17th century. It culminates with the glorious achievements of the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, of painters such as Ramsay, Raeburn, Mackintosh, and Wilkie. A splendid volume that establishes the claim of Scottish art to a distinct identity and that changes our understanding of the wider history of European art.
