Book Synopsis European Porcelain in The Metropolitan Museum of Art by : Jeffrey Munger
Download or read book European Porcelain in The Metropolitan Museum of Art written by Jeffrey Munger and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2018-05-09 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porcelain imported from China was the most highly coveted new medium in sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Europe. Its pure white color, translucency, and durability, as well as the delicacy of decoration, were impossible to achieve in European earthenware and stoneware. In response, European ceramic factories set out to discover the process of producing porcelain in the Chinese manner, with significant artistic, technical, and commercial ramifications for Britain and the Continent. Indeed, not only artisans, but kings, noble patrons, and entrepreneurs all joined in the quest, hoping to gain both prestige and profit from the enterprises they established. This beautifully illustrated volume showcases ninety works that span the late sixteenth to the mid-nineteenth century and reflect the major currents of European porcelain production. Each work is illustrated with glorious new photography, accompanied by analysis and interpretation by one of the leading experts in European decorative arts. Among the wide range of porcelains selected are rare blue-and-white wares and figures from Italy, superb examples from the Meissen factory in Germany and the Sèvres factory in France, and ceramics produced by leading British eighteenth-century artisans. Taken together, they reveal why the Metropolitan Museum’s holdings in this field are among the finest in the world. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana}

Book Synopsis The Rise Of The House Of Duveen by : James Henry Duveen
Download or read book The Rise Of The House Of Duveen written by James Henry Duveen and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-27 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an exciting portrayal of the history of the Duveen family in the art business up to 1939. “THOUGH MANY REASONS have contributed to impel me to write this hook, the chief one is the memory of my uncle Joel Joseph Duveen. On the death of my father at the untimely age of twenty-nine, when I was four years old, my uncle was appointed my guardian by the Dutch court. He took a constant interest in me as I grew up; and, seeing how much I admired his energy and brilliance, he loved to tell me his interesting experiences. I was an eager listener and made notes of all he told me. He frequently invited me to accompany him on long journeys, and I spent many holidays with him on the Continent; the most pleasurable and exciting parts of these travels with him were the stories of his early life and the reminiscences of his business career. “A friend [...] sent me in 1954 a fascinating book, Duveen, by S. N. Behrman, a gifted American author, which I read with the greatest interest. In it he has produced a brilliant picture of Lord Duveen’s character and methods, and he is to be congratulated on his successful portrait. But this exciting book is chiefly concerned with the period of Lord Duveen; and I am grateful to its author for inspiring me to take up my pen again and place on record the greatness of the older generation who, by more brilliant but less grandiose methods, created the firm Lord Duveen raised to a height that may never again be equalled. “I therefore began [...] to set down my memories of a line of great and intrepid connoisseurs in art. In our careers the art treasures in which we dealt and the great figures who formed our clientele are more interesting than we are ourselves. For this reason I have tried to picture the characters of my family by their adventurous dealings rather than by long biographical sketches; the incidents related are authentic in all details except names, some of which have been disguised for obvious reasons.”

Book Synopsis Art Market Research by : Tom McNulty
Download or read book Art Market Research written by Tom McNulty and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for art market researchers at all levels. A brief overview of the global art market and its major stakeholders precedes an analysis of the various sales venues (auction, commercial gallery, etc.). Library research skills are reviewed, and advanced methods are explored in a chapter devoted to basic market research. Because the monetary value of artwork cannot be established without reference to the aesthetic qualities and art historical significance of our subject works, two substantial chapters detail the processes involved in researching and documenting the fine and decorative arts, respectively, and provide annotated bibliographies. Methods for assigning values for art objects are explored, and sources of price data, both in print and online, are identified and described in detail. In recent years, art historical scholarship increasingly has addressed issues related to the history of art and its markets: a chapter on resources for the historian of the art market offers a wide range of sources. Finally, provenance and art law are discussed, with particular reference to their relevance to dealers, collectors, artists and other art market stakeholders.
