Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue of the Notable Paintings by Great Masters: Belonging to the Estate of the Late M.C.D. Borden, Esq. We may wonder how it came about that an artist like Frans Hals, whom we picture mentally as a manner Of Falstaff, should be particularly successful in portraying ministers Of the Gospel; yet he painted many of them. It is clear that an under standing Of malve piety, such as was imparted by gentle preach ers, was not incompatible with the rough belligerent natures of that time. In fact, war itself aided in furthering the influence of the priests, for a nation whose chief preoccupation is the defense Of its territory is more apt to give the church its rights than a people living in peace and having time for reflection and therefore for scepticism. These Dutch ministers also seem to have fostered a simple conception of life quite in accordance with the practical problems so close at hand, and by means Of a jovial cordiality to have brought themselves close to their flock. Sibelius is not portrayed as a complex nature; on the contrary, his friendly bearing, the clear, intelligent look in his small eyes, the encouraging, eloquent position Of his hands, do not reveal a man of philosophical and speculative mind with thoughts running in deep channels, but one Of simple nature who understands his immediate task of heartening and com forting. The artist himself was the same sort Of man as his sitter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists 50th anniversary edition written by Linda Nochlin and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fiftieth anniversary edition of the essay that is now recognized as the first major work of feminist art theory—published together with author Linda Nochlin’s reflections three decades later. Many scholars have called Linda Nochlin’s seminal essay on women artists the first real attempt at a feminist history of art. In her revolutionary essay, Nochlin refused to answer the question of why there had been no “great women artists” on its own corrupted terms, and instead, she dismantled the very concept of greatness, unraveling the basic assumptions that created the male-centric genius in art. With unparalleled insight and wit, Nochlin questioned the acceptance of a white male viewpoint in art history. And future freedom, as she saw it, requires women to leap into the unknown and risk demolishing the art world’s institutions in order to rebuild them anew. In this stand-alone anniversary edition, Nochlin’s essay is published alongside its reappraisal, “Thirty Years After.” Written in an era of thriving feminist theory, as well as queer theory, race, and postcolonial studies, “Thirty Years After” is a striking reflection on the emergence of a whole new canon. With reference to Joan Mitchell, Louise Bourgeois, Cindy Sherman, and many more, Nochlin diagnoses the state of women and art with unmatched precision and verve. “Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?” has become a slogan and rallying cry that resonates across culture and society. In the 2020s, Nochlin’s message could not be more urgent: as she put it in 2015, “There is still a long way to go.”

Griscom, Esq., Of Philadelphia: Unrestricted Public Sale by Order of Mrs. Griscom; In the Grand Ballroom of the Plaza on the Dates Herein Stated A characteristic portrait of a large, brown and white, Shaggy-haired sheep dog, painted close at hand out on the fields, with a background of landscape and heavily clouded, leaden sky. The dog is standing athwart the View, facing the left, his head up and tongue lolling lightly. The grayish white and yellowish-brown coat is strongly marked, and the long, bushy tail hangs in a deep loop-curve. The sunshine throws a bit of a shadow on the light green short grass at his feet, and a few detached trees appear in the distance before more distant low hills.
