Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Society of Artists of Great Britain, 1760-1791, the Free Society of Artists, 1761-1783: A Complete Dictionary of Contributors and Their Work From the Foundation of the Societies to 1791 The Royal Academy Exhibitors have induced me to continue the series by producing a companion volume of the two earlier Societies, thereby carrying the records of the works of English artists back to the year 1760, when the first public exhibition took place in England. In common with the Lists of Exhibitors at other London Exhibitions, this work was compiled over thirty years ago, and the manuscript volumes have ever since been of great use for reference. The catalogues of these early exhibitions are very difficult to obtain, and there is, I believe, no complete set of printed copies in existence, those in public institutions being completed by manuscript copies. To lovers of art this volume will present the only easily available means of knowing what pictures were exhibited by well-known artists before the foundation of the Royal Academy. Upwards of works were Shown at these exhibitions. To make the volume still more interesting, I have endeavoured to give an account of these Societies by reprinting portions of books written at the time of the exhibitions, or shortly afterwards. In this very little attempt has been made to introduce original matter, but I feel that the extracts from books now exceedingly scarce will prove of value.

Book Synopsis The King's Artists : The Royal Academy of Arts and the Politics of British Culture 1760-1840 by : Holger Hoock
Download or read book The King's Artists : The Royal Academy of Arts and the Politics of British Culture 1760-1840 written by Holger Hoock and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2003-11-13 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the forging of a national cultural institution in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Britain. The Royal Academy of Arts was the dominant art school and exhibition society in London and a model for art societies across the British Isles and North America. This is the first study of its early years, re-evaluating the Academy's significance in national cultural life and its profile in an international context. Holger Hoock reassesses royal and state patronage of the arts and explores the concepts and practices of cultural patriotism and the politicization of art during the American and French Revolutions. By demonstrating how the Academy shaped the notions of an English and British school of art and influenced the emergence of the British cultural state, he illuminates the politics of national culture and the character of British public life in an age of war, revolution, and reform.

Book Synopsis Class, Gender, and Sexuality in Thomas Gainsborough’s Blue Boy by : Valerie Hedquist
Download or read book Class, Gender, and Sexuality in Thomas Gainsborough’s Blue Boy written by Valerie Hedquist and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-08 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reception of Thomas Gainsborough’s Blue Boy from its origins to its appearances in contemporary visual culture reveals how its popularity was achieved and maintained by diverse audiences and in varied venues. Performative manifestations resulted in contradictory characterizations of the painted youth as an aristocrat or a "regular fellow," as masculine or feminine, or as heterosexual or gay. In private and public spaces where viewers saw the actual painting and where living and rendered replicas circulated, Gainsborough’s painting was often the centerpiece where dominant and subordinate classes met, gender identities were enacted, and sexuality was implicitly or overtly expressed.

Book Synopsis Punch and Shakespeare in the Victorian Era by : Alan R. Young
Download or read book Punch and Shakespeare in the Victorian Era written by Alan R. Young and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English humour magazine Punch, or the London Charivari, which first appeared in 1841, quickly became something of a national institution with a large and multi-layered readership. Though comic in tone, Punch was deeply serious about upholding high literary and artistic standards, about dealing with serious subject-matter, and about attempting to nurture its readers' appreciation of the national drama and of Shakespeare's plays in particular. The author's detailed examination of Punch's constant advocacy of Shakespeare reveals telling new evidence concerning the ubiquitous presence of Shakespeare within Victorian culture. New research in the Punch archives and elsewhere also reveals the identities of many of the Punch authors and artists. The author shows how those who worked for Punch often subsumed their collective identities within the single persona of Mr. Punch, a fictional creation who repeatedly presents himself in both texts and graphics as a close friend and admirer of Shakespeare, a man able to remind Victorian readers constantly of the supreme literary and moral values represented by Shakespeare's works.
Book Synopsis The Wife of Bath in Afterlife by : Betsy Bowden
Download or read book The Wife of Bath in Afterlife written by Betsy Bowden and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By focusing on one literary character, as interpreted in both verbal art and visual art at a point midway in time between the author’s era and our own, this study applies methodology appropriate for overcoming limitations posed by historical periodization and by isolation among academic specialities. Current trends in Chaucer scholarship call for diachronic afterlife studies like this one, sometimes termed “medievalism.” So far, however, nearly all such work by-passes the eighteenth century (here designated 1660-1810). Furthermore, medieval authors’ afterlives during any time period have not been analyzed by way of the multiple fields of specialization integrated into this study. The Wife of Bath is regarded through the disciplinary lenses of eighteenth-century literature, visual art, print marketing, education, folklore, music, equitation, and especially theater both in London and on the Continent.
Book Synopsis The Iconography of Sir Isaac Newton to 1800 by : Milo Keynes
Download or read book The Iconography of Sir Isaac Newton to 1800 written by Milo Keynes and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalogue and iconography of the extraordinary wealth of images of Sir Isaac Newton, both before and after his death. Sir Isaac Newton [1642-1727] is rare among figures of the past for the number of authentic paintings, engravings and images of him which survive. He was painted by some nine different artists in the latter part of his life, and after his death both portraits and sculptures continued to proliferate, the amazing demand for representations of his image demonstrating his immense fame. This iconography, lavishly illustrated in both colour and black and white, and involving the disciplines of History of Art and History of Science, catalogues 231 icons in two sections, and is thus an invaluable guide to the images. Part I contains 122 portraits and Part II 109 sculptures, about fifty of which were produced before his death, the rest from then until 1800.
Book Synopsis Portraits and Poses by : Beatrijs Vanacker
Download or read book Portraits and Poses written by Beatrijs Vanacker and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2022-04-28 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interdisciplinary and cross-cultural view on authority construction among early modern female intellectuals The complex relation between gender and the representation of intellectual authority has deep roots in European history. Portraits and Poses adopts a historical approach to shed new light on this topical subject. It addresses various modes and strategies by which learned women (authors, scientists, jurists, midwifes, painters, and others) sought to negotiate and legitimise their authority at the dawn of modern science in Early Modern and Enlightenment Europe (1600–1800). This volume explores the transnational dimensions of intellectual networks in France, Italy, Britain, the German states and the Low Countries, among others. Drawing on a wide range of case studies from different spheres of professionalisation, it examines both individual and collective constructions of female intellectual authority through word and image. In its innovative combination of an interdisciplinary and transnational approach, this volume contributes to the growing literature on women and intellectual authority in the Early Modern Era and outlines contours for future research.
