Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Work of John S. Sargent, R. A: With an Introductory Note Ven the critic of some twenty years ago, to whom the drama of life seemed literary and therefore not fit for painting, must confess to an interest in the subject of a picture when that picture is a portrait. The painter's perception of the character of his sitter is an essential part of his work, even of his execution. There is an insight in portraiture of which no one is afraid to speak. Even when, in the last century, the crime of literature was discovered, this was not accused of literature, and no man charged this kind of reading with that sin. Most justly did the portrait painter pass unrebuked. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Years of Modern Painting, Corot to Sargent I am not concerned just now to argue the point. I will only express my gratitude to both. But Constable's frank enjoyment of nature gave great Offence to his contemporaries. He painted the sparkle Of sunshine on wet leaves, and it was derisively called Con stable's snow. Chantrey, one varnishing-day, took a brush and passed a brown glaze over it all Sir George Beaumont took Offence because Constable, who loved the spring and the summer, painted the woodlands green, as he saw them in those seasons, and did not put in the brown tree of the conventional recipe. The painter who suffered thus from tradition might well fear that it would soon have a fatally deadening effect on art. A general comparison Of past and present would help to confirm his fear. The great race Of portrait painters had passed away, leaving a much feebler succession. Reynolds and Gainsborough were long dead; Romney only more recently; Hoppner died in 1810; Raeburn in 1823; Lawrence had still several years to live but he does not rank with those who have already been mentioned. Only the student easily calls to mind the next generation of por trait painters. Howard, Hilton, and Haydon, the painters Of historical subjects, however we may estimate their success, were still seeking to emulate the great Italian masters Of the late Renaissance. This is true also Of Etty, though he ranks high as a colourist, and was an enthusiastic painter Of flesh. The painters Of genre subjects, Wilkie, Mulready, Leslie, and others, worked according to academic rule; and one need not be hostile to the subject in art to weary Of their generally commonplace treatment Of trivial subjects. By the great majority of the painters Of this period, neither nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Painting and Its Tradition: As Represented by Inness, Wyant, Martin, Homer, La Farge, Whistler, Chase, Alexander, Sargent The painters about whom these chapters are written helped to make up the period in American painting dating, generally, from about 1878 to, say, 1915. That period has practically closed in the sense that a newer generation with different aims and aspirations has come forward, and the men who broke ground years ago in the Society of American Artists have turned their furrow and had their day. Indeed, those I have chosen to write about herein, with the exception of Sargent, have passed on and passed out. Not only their period but their work has ended. We are now beginning to see them in something like historic perspective. Perhaps, then, the time is opportune for speaking of them as a group and of their in uence upon American art. Not all of the one-me new movement originated and died with these nine men. Dozens of painters became identified with American art just after the Centennial, and many of those who came back from Munich and Paris in the late seventies and the early eighties are still living and producing. But while the nine were by no means the whole count they were certainly representative of the movement, and their works speak for almost every phase of it. The value of the movement to American art can be rightly enough judged from them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Strapless written by Deborah Davis and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-05-03 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of John Singer Sargent's most famous painting was twenty-three-year-old New Orleans Creole Virginie Gautreau, who moved to Paris and quickly became the "it girl" of her day. A relative unknown at the time, Sargent won the commission to paint her; the two must have recognized in each other a like-minded hunger for fame. Unveiled at the 1884 Paris Salon, Gautreau's portrait generated the attention she craved-but it led to infamy rather than stardom. Sargent had painted one strap of Gautreau's dress dangling from her shoulder, suggesting either the prelude to or the aftermath of sex. Her reputation irreparably damaged, Gautreau retired from public life, destroying all the mirrors in her home. Drawing on documents from private collections and other previously unexamined materials, and featuring a cast of characters including Oscar Wilde and Richard Wagner, Strapless is a tale of art and celebrity, obsession and betrayal.
