Book excerpt: Accompanying a major retrospective of Anders Zorn’s work, this is the first volume in English to explore the Swedish Impressionist’s entire career in depth. Anders Zorn (1860–1920) is one of Sweden’s most accomplished and beloved artists. Renowned for his light, expressive watercolors, he attained mastery of the genre at an early age and later applied his techniques to oil painting. Zorn is often compared with the artists John Singer Sargent and Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida, contemporaries who also were known for their portraits of high-society figures. Taking up residence in London and then in Paris, Zorn established himself as an international portrait painter, depicting fashionable clients in a style both elegant and relaxed. He became a favorite among wealthy American collectors, bankers, and industrialists who sat for him, including art collector Isabella Stewart Gardner and three U.S. presidents. Although perhaps best known for his portraits, Zorn brought equal skill to painting genre scenes and views of nature. This handsome volume provides a thorough introduction to the artist and his works, from portraiture to landscapes and his famous nudes. Four illustrated essays are accompanied by a chronology, selected bibliography, an exhibition checklist, and an index.

Book Synopsis Anders Zorn, 101 Etchings by : Anders Zorn
Download or read book Anders Zorn, 101 Etchings written by Anders Zorn and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2018-11-07 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "painters' painter," Anders Zorn (1860–1920) studied at the Stockholm Royal Academy of Art and took up residence in London and Paris, where he established an international roster of high-society clients. His striking portraits rivaled those of his contemporary John Singer Sargent in their popularity. Zorn excelled at both watercolor and oil painting, and his etchings are of the highest quality. Uninhibited by the limitations of the medium, the Swedish artist exhibited complete mastery of the plate, bending the art form to suit his own direction. His etchings display the same characteristics and likeness of his paintings, consisting chiefly of portraits and genre scenes. This collection of Zorn's finest etchings, which date from 1883 to 1918, features art from the 1922 Verlag Ernst Arnold edition. An ideal showcase of Zorn's artistic style and technical ability, this book provides a captivating gallery of people in repose and in motion—making music, riding horses, boating, and swimming. Some of the etchings are nude, others depict the fashions of the day. This new edition is enriched by a Foreword by James Gurney, author of Color and Light: A Guide for the Realist Painter and Imaginative Realism.
Book Synopsis Anders Zorn: 124 Paintings by : Arron Adams
Download or read book Anders Zorn: 124 Paintings written by Arron Adams and published by Osmora Incorporated. This book was released on 2014-09-22 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anders Leonard Zorn (1860 –1920) was Sweden’s artist who obtained international success as a painter, sculptor and print-maker in etching. His fame abroad is founded mostly on his portraiture where he had the ability to capture the character and the personality of the depicted person. But also his graphic work, where he is among the most talented of all times, is well-known. Known as the "Swedish Impressionist", the painter Anders Zorn is best known for his alfresco nudes. These female figures were mainly depicted outdoors, using the plein air painting technique, often by the sea and in natural light. He strove to reflect a synthesis between nature and the human body manipulating paint onto canvas with rapid brushstrokes. His works were particularly popular in America at the time of his death, his prints sometimes selling for more than those of his mentor Rembrandt. Paintings by Anders Zorn can now be seen in several of the best art museums around the world.

Download or read book Anders Zorn written by Jessica Findley and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-12-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anders Zorn was one of Sweden's foremost artists who obtained international success as a painter, sculptor and print maker in etching. His fame abroad is founded mostly on his portraiture where he had the ability to capture the character and the personality of the depicted person. His incisive ability to depict the individual character of his model is, for example, apparent in portraits of prominent cultural personalities. The model's surroundings were important; Zorn believed that a portrait should be painted in an environment that was natural for the model. An artificial studio environment was not to his taste. Beginning in 1910, Zorn focused on developing his control of the technique and motif. He accomplished this with such certainty that the process of painting can assume the dominant role, sometimes to the detriment of the work's emotional expression.

Download or read book Sargent written by John Singer Sargent and published by Turner Palermo/Fundacion Coleccion Thyssen-Bornemisza. This book was released on 2006 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida (1863-1923) studied painting from the age of 15 in his native Valencia, then in Madrid and eventually Rome. On his return to Spain, he became the major portraitist of his time, and worked with subjects including King Alphonso and Queen Victoria Eugénie. Like John Singer Sargent (1856-1925), whose career was unfolding on American shores, Sorolla remained firmly outside of the Impressionist vanguard and was all but indifferent to other popular artistic movements of the day, but nevertheless achieved international renown in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Both artists focused on society portraits but also undertook independent work and commissions for cultural institutions. They encountered one another occasionally, and held one another in very special regard. Sargent & Sorolla highlights the affinities between not just their personal and professional lives but their work itself: the expressive use of color and light, the development of a Modernist sensibility from Naturalist techniques, and the tremendous renown and commercial success each man reached independently. An essential exploration of how the careers of the two great artists ran parallel to each other, intersected, and also diverged.

Book Synopsis "Interior Portraiture and Masculine Identity in France, 1789?914 " by : HeatherBelnap Jensen
Download or read book "Interior Portraiture and Masculine Identity in France, 1789?914 " written by HeatherBelnap Jensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing specifically on portraiture as a genre, this volume challenges scholarly assumptions that regard interior spaces as uniquely feminine. Contributors analyze portraits of men in domestic and studio spaces in France during the long nineteenth century; the preponderance of such portraits alone supports the book's premise that the alignment of men with public life is oversimplified and more myth than reality. The volume offers analysis of works by a mix of artists, from familiar names such as David, Delacroix, Courbet, Manet, Rodin, and Matisse to less well-known image makers including Dominique Doncre, Constance Mayer, Anders Zorn and Lucien-Etienne Melingue. The essays cover a range of media from paintings and prints to photographs and sculpture that allows exploration of the relation between masculinity and interiority across the visual culture of the period. The home and other interior spaces emerge from these studies as rich and complex locations for both masculine self-expression and artistic creativity. Interior Portraiture and Masculine Identity in France, 1789-1914 provides a much-needed rethinking of modern masculinity in this period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... When Zorn was working in London in 1882 it was natural that the young Swedish artist should visit his fellow-countryman who was then best known in England, Axel Herman Haig, the etcher, who had already achieved a certain success. This meeting was to be of importance for Zorn. Haig immediately appreciated his dazzling gifts and became his instructor in the art of etching. In 1882 Zorn executed his first plate, a portrait of Haig, and this marks the beginning of his triumphal progress as an etcher, which is familiar to everyone interested in this branch of art. Swedish graphic art at the period of this memorable event forms a dark background to Zorn's own brilliant contribution. Copper engraving and lithography had by this time lost their importance as means of artistic expression. We had really one etcher of importance, Georg von Rosen, who had, however, devoted only a small portion of his creative power to his historical etched glass of the 'sixties and 'seventies. In the spring of 1875 original etching began for the first time to be regarded with interest by leading artists in Sweden. It was then that the Belgian artist, L. Lowenstam, opened his school of etching in Stockholm and some well-known artists began to practise the art, either directly as his pupils, or under the influence of the newly aroused interest for this branch of art. The painters of 'paysage intime were most typical of this period. But the pupil of Lowenstam who was to have the most brilliant future was Carl Larsson, well known later as one of the few Swedes, after Zorn, who were successful in achieving some reputation as etchers. But it was only the technique of etching that Zorn had to learn from Haig. The most thorough investigation would not produce any evidence...
Download or read book Rembrandt written by Christian Tümpel and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 1993 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book which is the result of more than 20 years of research and offers new interpretations of the art of Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669). It was designed to be a catalogue raisonne of works by the artist or works traditionally attributed to him. In a text that incorporates his own scholarship as well as the latest findings of the Rembrandt Research Project, the author explores the development of Rembrandt's art through the story of the artist's life. First, Tumpel frees the iconographic interpretation of Rembrandt's art of its traditional literary connections. Second, he demonstrates that Rembrandt was inspired by various 16th-century visual materials and was therefore less original than was assumed until now. The author also analyzes the stylistic traditions of Rembrandt's time and ultimately presents a series of convincing interpretations of Rembrandt's famous history pieces.
