Book Synopsis The Eye of Thomas Jefferson by : William Howard Adams
Download or read book The Eye of Thomas Jefferson written by William Howard Adams and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the occasion of the anniversary of Thomas Jefferson's birth, The Eye of Thomas Jefferson, a major contribution to the study of Jefferson and his world, is available once again. This extensive catalogue was originally produced by the National Gallery of Art to accompany a vast exhibition of Jeffersonian artifacts for the bicentennial of the American Revolution. Because Jefferson's world was wide, his eye discerning, and his intellect extraordinary, the exhibition catalogue is wide-ranging. From the United States and Europe, the book brings together works of art from Jefferson's world: paintings and sculptures that he admired, works that he owned, and portraits and sculptures of himself and his contemporaries. Items of material culture, including furniture and silver, are also included, along with reflections of Jefferson's architectural interests and achievements, revealed in the buildings he admired and those that he designed. Highlights of the exhibition catalogue include The Medici Venus; David's The Death of Socrates; Houdon's marble busts of Washington, Franklin, and Jefferson; Trumbull's famous series of paintings of the American Revolution; examples of paintings from the Paris Salons of 1785, 1787, and 1789, which Jefferson visited while minister to France; Saint-Memin's portraits of Osage Indians; and much more. With more than 600 illustrations, The Eye of Thomas Jefferson is a major work of scholarship. The thoroughness of the entries, written by well-qualified scholars, makes this an indispensable reference work not only on Jefferson, but also on the world of the arts in the era of the American and French Revolutions. The book is an incomparable source to the rich backgroundof Jefferson's life and work.

Book Synopsis Jean-Antoine Houdon by : Anne L. Poulet
Download or read book Jean-Antoine Houdon written by Anne L. Poulet and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2003-07-15 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Antoine Houdon (1741-1826) has long been recognized as the greatest European portrait sculptor of the late eighteenth century, flourishing during both the American and French Revolutions as well as during the Directoire and Empire in France. Whether sculpting a head of state, an intellectual, or a young child, Houdon had an uncanny ability to capture the essence of his subject with a characteristic pose or expression. Yet until now, Houdon's exquisite sculptures have never been the subject of a major exhibition. This lavish exhibition catalogue will immediately take its rightful place as the definitive work on Houdon. With more than one hundred color plates and two hundred black and white halftones, Jean-Antoine Houdon: Sculptor of the Enlightenment illustrates every stage of the sculptor's fascinating career, from his early portrayals of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette to his stunning portraits of American patriots such as George Washington, the Marquis de Lafayette, John Paul Jones, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson. Indeed the images we hold dear of legendary Enlightenment figures like Diderot, Rousseau, d'Alembert, and Voltaire are based on works by Houdon. More than mere representations, these sculptures provide us fascinating, intimate glimpses into the very core of who these figures were. Houdon's genius animated even his less illustrious subjects, like his portraits of his family and friends, and filled his sculptures of children with delicacy and freshness. Accompanying the images of Houdon's masterworks are four insightful essays that discuss Houdon's views on art (based in part on a newly discovered manuscript written by the artist) as well as his prominence in the highly varied cultures of eighteenth-century France, Germany, and Russia. From aristocrats to revolutionaries, actors to philosophers, Houdon's amazingly vivid portraits constitute the visual record of the Enlightenment and capture the true spirit of a remarkable age. Jean-Antoine Houdon finally gives these gorgeous works their due.
