Download or read book LANDSCAPES LOUIS REMY MIGNOT written by MANTHORNE KATHERINE and published by Smithsonian. This book was released on 1996-10-17 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Landscape painter Louis Remy Mignot (1831-1870) was acclaimed during his lifetime as "one of the finest artists of our country." As a Catholic in a Protestant nation, a southerner in the North, and an American abroad, Mignot continually redefined himself in his paintings. His work displays a versatility and delicacy unsurpassed by his contemporaries. Fully illustrated, this first complete appraisal of Mignot's art reestablishes the prominence of a painter who all but disappeared from the annals of art after his death in 1870. Beginning with only fifteen known paintings, the authors retraced Mignot's life and have identified as his more than one hundred paintings and sketches in private collections and museums. The Landscapes of Louis Remy Mignot showcases for the first time the full spectrum of Mignot's diverse body of work. Encompassing snow scenes in Holland, New England farmscapes, views of the English countryside, and pre-Impressionist images of Paris, his chromatically nuanced portrayals of open, empty spaces, ruined buildings, and twilit skies reflect a melancholic sensibility that aligns him with intellectual romanticism.

Book Synopsis Essences of Charleston by : Stuart Robinson
Download or read book Essences of Charleston written by Stuart Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1857, Hudson River School painter Louis Remy Mignot (1831-1870) traveled to Ecuador with, and at the request of, Frederic Edwin Church (1826-1900). The two artists spent most of their time exploring the Andes mountains, yet, from 1857 to 1859, Mignot painted mainly low-horizon river scenes of Ecuador. In this study, I explain that the artist's childhood in Charleston, South Carolina influenced this pictorial preference. In chapter one, I use theories of perception found in environmental psychology and human geography to argue that the landscape of one's childhood remains as an ever-present prism through which future landscapes are viewed. Drawing from the work of phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1908-1961), I argue that, in art, the childhood landscape is traceable through the "essences, "defined as the identifiable characteristics of a landscape that congeal in memory. Essences include elements of topography, climate, and vegetation. In chapter two, I examine Mignot's depictions of Charleston's three essences - rivers, humid skies, and tropical plant life. I argue that Mignot recreated the essences of Charleston in his tropical landscape paintings from 1857 to 1859. Mignot left a scant written record about his art and life. Therefore, in both chapters I use the letters, sketches, and paintings of South America by Church to reflect on Mignot's tropical landscape paintings. Church, who was born in Hartford, Connecticut, represents the Northern counterpart to Mignot's Southern perception of South America.
Download or read book A Southern Collection written by and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1993-02-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Southern Collection presents select masterworks from the permanent collection of the Morris Museum of Art on the occasion of the institution's inaugural exhibition. Drawn from a comprehensive survey collection of painting in the South from the late eighteenth century to the present day, the museum's opening exhibit explores an artistic terrain as rich and diverse as the South itself, arranged in categories that reflect critical chronological developments in the art world. A survey of painting activity in the South begins with the travels of itinerant portrait artists working prior to the Civil War. At the same time, landscape painting encompasses a sensitive response to the swamps, bayous and fertile fields of the South. Late in the nineteenth century strong and vivid genre painting competes with the nostalgic effects realized by Southern impressionists, whose shimmering, liquid images are invested with an elusive spirit of place. In this century, those strains of realism and naturalism that characterize the classic body of Southern writing appear in the representational art of painters who defied the modern abstract dictum. And finally, the exciting, compelling works of a current generation of both self-taught artists and sophisticated contemporary painters complete this fascinating, though sometimes neglected, chapter in American art history.
Book Synopsis The Unforgettables by : Charles C. Eldredge
Download or read book The Unforgettables written by Charles C. Eldredge and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eminent art historian Charles C. Eldredge brings together top scholars to celebrate forgotten artists and create a more inclusive history of American art. Why do some artists become canonical, while others, equally respected in their time, fall into obscurity? This question is central to The Unforgettables, a vibrant collection of essays by leading experts on American art. Each contributor presents a brief for an artist deserving of new or renewed attention, including artists from the colonial era to recent years working in a wide variety of mediums. Histories of American art have traditionally highlighted the work of a familiar roster of artists, largely white and male. The achievements of their peers, notably women and artists of color, have gone uncelebrated. The essays in this volume provide a new and richer understanding of American art, expanding the canon to include many worthy talents. A number of these artists were acclaimed in their day; others, having missed that acclaim, may achieve it now. With contributions from major scholars and museum professionals, The Unforgettables rescues and revises reputations as it enhances and enriches the history of American art.
