Book Synopsis Whistler and His Mother by : Sarah Walden
Download or read book Whistler and His Mother written by Sarah Walden and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James McNeill Whistler painted his mother on impulse, when she came to London to escape the American Civil War, forcing him to evict his mistress from his house. It is hard to imagine a greater contrast than that between Whistler's outrageously flamboyant life in London--where he famously befriended Oscar Wilde and Dante Gabriel Rossetti--and the subdued, touchingly melancholic depiction of his Puritan mother he entitled "Arrangement in Grey and Black." This portrait has become one of the world's best-known paintings and an American icon, yet we know remarkably little about it. While restoring the painting for the Louvre, Sarah Walden became intrigued by the extraordinary and complex history of the painting, which had never been fully explored. From French, British, and American sources, Walden uncovers the intersections between Whistler's flawed genius, his struggle for recognition, his troubled relationship with his mother and mistresses, and the unprecedented historical response to his greatest work. Walden's findings read like a detective story, and her controversial and progressive views on art restoration combine with biography and criticism to create a gripping narrative that skillfully weaves history and aesthetics into a seamless tapestry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Whistler The time when Rossetti and his circle were foregathering chiefly at Rossetti's house, quiet Chelsea scarcely knew how daily were associations added which will always cluster round her name. Whistler's share in those associations is very large, and he has left in his paintings the memory of many a night, as he returned beside the river. Before Whistler painted it, night was.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Whistler Journal Roberts and Mr. Bier, who helped us to install it in the Print Di vision, and Miss Wright and Miss Bier for much work. It has been the American public alone which has shown no interest. The American public of the present will not last, or the country will not last. But the name and fame of Whistler will endure. Messrs. Knoedler have greatly aided us by furnishing us with many photographs and much information about works in their possession. Messrs. Rosenbach supplied us with the Greaves portraits in abun dance, and we have shown and told the performances of the Brothers Greaves for the first time. Mrs. Eddy has given us the portrait of her husband which, during his lifetime, he refused to publish even in his own book on Whistler. Messrs. Keppel have, as usual, helped in many ways, and Messrs. Kennedy and Co. Especially, permitting us to use the illustrations in their catalogue of the lithographs; and so have other dealers who know and under stand. They have also shown us, and consulted us about, the end less fakes with which the country is flooded, and are a delightful contrast to those amateur collectors who know everything about Whistler and cannot - some of them - tell his signature from Harper Pennington's to say nothing of a good work from a bad imitation; a contrast also to the amateur amateurs and the business men who, if they employed the same methods in collecting cash as they do in collecting art, would find themselves in the bank ruptcy court in six months - and occasionally they do. The re storer too is abroad and works have been utterly ruined, notably The Lange Leizen in the Johnson Collection, all the skin cleaned, scraped, scrubbed ofi it.

Book Synopsis Recollections and Impressions of James A. McNeill Whistler (Classic Reprint) by : Arthur Jerome Eddy
Download or read book Recollections and Impressions of James A. McNeill Whistler (Classic Reprint) written by Arthur Jerome Eddy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections and Impressions of James A. McNeill Whistler The reminiscences are mostly personal. Many of the anecdotes - though perhaps equally familiar to others - were had from the artist's own lips. The views concerning his art, whether right or wrong, were formed while watching him at work day after day, and after many interviews in which, now and then, he would speak plainly concerning art.' At the same time not so much as a thought must be attributed to him unless expressly quoted. The biographical data - just sufficient to furnish a connecting thread and aid in the appreciation - have been gathered from casual sources, and are, no doubt, subject to incidental corrections. Only when a duly authorized life and letters is published by those who have access to the material that must exist will the great artist be known by the world as he really was - a profoundly earnest, serious, loving, and lovable man. Meanwhile, those who believe in his art must like the writer - speak their convictions for what they are worth.

He preferred rather to draw and paint.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
