Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arthur Boyd Houghton: A Selection From His Work in Black and White, Printed for the Most Part From the Original Wood-Blocks; With an Introduction Essay C iiarisen, a school of such moment and intellectual dignity as the one made familiar to us under the fancy name chosen by its first founders - the preraphaelite: and that work, so full of the instinct for decorative fitness, should have come to us submerged in popular editions whose binding, paper, and decorative borders combine to rob it of its effect, and Obscure the apparentness of its aim. In the books produced during its first decade the school had to carry out its mission in partibus infidelibus its influence was strictly limited to the wood-blocks on which its work appeared, and did not extend to page or to type. It had not, as since, disciplined printer, binder and publisher to its demands. All that it could do, so far as the forms of printing went, was to supply an element of incongruity, by setting down beauty and distinction amid the sordid conventions Of common-place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997, this volume will revolutionise the study of watercolour painting in Britain. The Royal Watercolour Society archive constitutes a major academic resource covering two hundred years of the history of watercolour painting in Britain. The rediscovery in 1980 of ‘the Jenkins Papers’, the early records of the Society, was a major find for the history of British art. The archives are substantial and remarkably comprehensive. Minutes of annual general meetings, Council and committees, are all intact; extraordinarily, the Society’s catalogues for its own exhibitions have also survived, with details of who bought the pictures and for how much. It contains biographical information on several hundred artists who practised throughout the United Kingdom from the end of the eighteenth century to the present day. Prepared by the archivist to the RWS, Simon Fenwick, this is not just a work of reference, but an absorbing book to dip into again and again. The Society of Painters in Water Colours, as it was then titled, was founded in 1804 to promote the interests of painters using watercolour and to provide a platform for members to sell their work. As such, its archives provide an excellent insight into the evolving debate on the status of the artists and their medium, and an authoritative account of the way in which watercolour paintings were sold, distributed and acquired. The substantial introduction by Greg Smith surveys some of the purposes and practices of watercolour from 1750 to the present day and highlights key issues, many yet to be examined, relating to the study of watercolour. His survey is arranged around a number of topics including the notion of watercolour as a British art, collecting and display, book illustration, architectural drawing, map-making and topography, antiquarian studies, decorative arts, printmaking, portrait miniatures and drawings, amateur practices and the changing status of the sketch.
