Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Benjamin Robert Haydon, Historical Painter If, indeed, "the proper study of mankind is man," a student of the vagaries of the human spirit could journey farther and fare worse than to examine the colorful and tragic career of Benjamin Robert Haydon, the subject ol this biography. Let it be admitted that Haydon wrote his own Life far better than anyone else can ever write it. But in his autobiography and his journals, as inevitably in such works, perspective and objectivity arc often lacking: to supply these lacks is the principal task of his biographer. In this attempt, however, one can never depart for long from Haydon's own record of events and personalities and of himself. To do so would be to lose the unique and essential flavor of the man which pervades his writing. The little hour during which Haydon strutted across the stage of London life lasted some forty-two years. When he came to the city in 1804, George III was on the throne. His greatest triumphs as a painter occurred during the Regency and the reign of George IV. When Haydon died, Victoria had been queen for almost a decade. In those early years, Napoleon was casting his long shadow across Europe and England. Then Waterloo, and the shadow lifted. Industrialism began to hit its stride during the era of peace that followed; political and social reform burgeoned. Haydon was in contact with many of those who were shaping great events; and not content merely to observe, he entered into the life of his time, wherever he could, as an active and courageous protagonist. Haydon is known to students of the early nineteenth century less as a painter, perhaps, than as a friend of literary men and women. In a period of unusually close rapprochement between the worlds of art and letters, he knew, casually or intimately, more writers than any other artist of his day. To many of them he seemed an authentically in a related field. In his own profession he was equally well known but not so highly regarded.

Download or read book The Writings of James Barry and the Genre of History Painting 1775 809 written by Liam Lenihan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the literary career of the eighteenth-century Irish painter James Barry, 1741-1806 through an interdisciplinary methodology, The Writings of James Barry and the Genre of History Painting, 1775-1809 is the first full-length study of the artist?s writings. Liam Lenihan critically assesses the artist?s own aesthetic philosophy about painting and printmaking, and reveals the extent to which Barry wrestles with the significant stylistic transformations of the pre-eminent artistic genre of his age: history painting. Lenihan?s book delves into the connections between Barry?s writings and art, and the cultural and political issues that dominated the public sphere in London during the American and French Revolutions. Barry?s writings are read within the context of the political and aesthetic thought of his distinguished friends and contemporaries, such as Edmund Burke, his first patron; Joshua Reynolds, his sometime friend and rival; Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin, with whom he was later friends; and his students and adversaries, William Blake and Henry Fuseli. Ultimately, Lenihan?s interdisciplinary reading shows the extent to which Barry?s faith in the classical tradition in general, and the genre of history painting in particular, is permeated by the hermeneutics of suspicion. This study explores and contextualizes Barry?s attempt to rethink and remake the preeminent art form of his era.
