Download or read book British and Irish Paintings in Public Collections written by Christopher Wright and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets a new standard as a work of reference. It covers British and Irish art in public collections from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the end of the nineteenth, and it encompasses nearly 9,000 painters and 90,000 paintings in more than 1,700 separate collections. The book includes as well pictures that are now lost, some as a consequence of the Second World War and others because of de-accessioning, mostly from 1950 to about 1975 when Victorian art was out of fashion. By listing many tens of thousands of previously unpublished works, including around 13,000 which do not yet have any form of attribution, this book becomes a unique and indispensable work of reference, one that will transform the study of British and Irish painting.

Book excerpt: Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) est l'un des peintres les plus raffinés et les plus singuliers de l'époque victorienne. Né citoyen des Pays-Bas, il s'établit à Londres en 1870, où il s'illustre par des oeuvres dépeignant le luxe et la décadence de l'Empire romain, avec des personnages alanguis se prélassant dans de somptueux décors de marbre ou sur fond de mer et de ciel méditerranéens bleu azur. Dans cet ouvrage riche et original, Rosemary Barrow dresse un portrait captivant et souvent amusant de ce personnage haut en couleur qui parvint à imposer avec brio son art au sein de l'élite artistique et culturelle londonienne. Par un regard neuf et minutieux porté sur ses oeuvres, elle montre en outre qu'Alma-Tadema était un grand connaisseur de l'Antiquité, qui puisait constamment à de nombreuses sources littéraires et archéologiques. Il plaçait ainsi dans des scènes en apparence anodines des citations de textes ou des statues qui, pour le spectateur initié, donnaient au tableau un sens caché plus audacieux. L'oeuvre d'Alma-Tadema, comme celle de ses contemporains, fut reléguée dans l'oubli après sa mort. Aujourd'hui, le public en redécouvre la beauté et la parfaite maîtrise de la lumière, de la couleur et de la matière. Cet ouvrage contribue à réhabiliter ce grand artiste, en éclairant d'un oeil neuf sa personnalité comme ses intentions.
