Book Constable and Salisbury

Download or read book Constable and Salisbury written by Timothy Wilcox and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apart from the Stour Valley on the borders of Suffolk and Essex, where he grew up, Constable made more paintings and drawings in and around Salisbury than in any other part of England. He was a regular visitor for nearly twenty years, staying in the Close, first as guest of the bishop, then with his nephew, Archdeacon John Fisher. Paintings and drawings of Salisbury figure in every exhibition of Constable's art, but they have never been considered in isolation. This new study examines every aspect of Constable's connections with Salisbury, casting new light not only on the places and people, but on his intriguing interpretations of such familiar monuments as Salisbury Cathedral, Old Sarum and Stonehenge. Published to accompany the exhibition Constable and Salisbury, The Soul of Landscape at the Museum of Salisbury and South Wiltshire, situated within Salisbury Cathedral Close, it promotes a fresh understanding of Constable's art. AUTHOR: Timothy Wilcox is a writer and curator with a particular interest in British landscape painting and watercolours. He is the author of Samuel Palmer and The Glory of Watercolour and a contributor to Constable's Clouds and The Solitude of Mountains: Constable in the Lake District. 157 colour illustrations

Book John Constable and the Fishers

Download or read book John Constable and the Fishers written by R B Beckett and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-02-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1952, John Constable and the Fishers is based on original letters which have never been published in full before. These have been woven into a connected narrative dealing with the friendship which existed between Constable and various members of the Fisher family, more particularly the Bishop of Salisbury (a personal friend of George III who entrusted him with the education of Princess Charlotte as heiress to the throne) and his nephew the Archdeacon of Berkshire. The Archdeacon’s letters give a picture of life in a cathedral closed and country vicarages, reminiscent of Trollope’s Barchester and Thomas Hardy’s Wessex. In return Constable confides his ideals and ambitions; and as Mr. Grigson suggests in his introduction, the encouragement he received from the Fishers may have had a decisive effect on the future of landscape art. The letters are fully annotated and are illustrated with connected works done by Constable. This book will of interest to students of history, art and literature.

Book Elegy Landscapes  Constable and Turner and the Intimate Sublime

Download or read book Elegy Landscapes Constable and Turner and the Intimate Sublime written by Stanley Plumly and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping look at the lives and work of two important English Romantic painters, from a Los Angeles Times Book Prize–winning author. Renowned poet Stanley Plumly, who has been praised for his “obsessive, intricate, intimate and brilliant” (Washington Post) nonfiction, explores immortality in art through the work of two impressive landscape artists: John Constable and J.M.W. Turner. How is it that this disparate pair will come to be regarded as Britain’s supreme landscape painters, precursors to Impressionism and Modernism? How did each painter’s life influence his work? Almost exact contemporaries, both legendary artists experience a life-changing tragedy—for Constable it is the long illness and death of his wife; for Turner, the death of his singular parent and supporter, his father. Their work will take on new power thereafter: Constable, his Hampstead cloud studies; Turner, his Venetian watercolors and oils. Seeking the transcendent aesthetic awe of the sublime and reeling from their personal anguish, these talented painters portrayed the terrible beauty of the natural world from an intimate, close-up perspective. Plumly studies the paintings against the pull of the artists’ lives, probing how each finds the sublime in different, though inherently connected, worlds. At once a meditation on the difficulties in achieving truly immortal works of art and an exploration of the relationship between artist and artwork, Elegy Landscapes takes a wide-angle look at the philosophy of the sublime.
