Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key painters associated with the Barbizon School - Corot, Millet, Rousseau and Courbet - are among the finest landscape artists of the nineteenth century. From their base at the village of Barbizon in the Forest of Fontainebleau, just outside Paris, they painted nature as they saw it, anticipating many of the techniques and effects of Impressionism. In this survey Steven Adams re-evaluates French landscape painting in the half-century before Impressionism, placing this 'return to nature' against the background of the rapid industrialization and political crises of the period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Barbizon School of Painters: Corot, Rousseau, Diaz, Millet, Daubigny, Etc The pictures painted by the group of French artists who lived around Barbizon, have been for many years the admiration of the artistic world. But very little has yet been done to tell their story, and it is the aim of this volume to set forth the biographies of these artists, illustrated with such representations of their works as will give an adequate conception of their methods and achievements. Personal knowledge of these artists I have had none, and for this reason it has been possible, perhaps, to take a less partial view than those writers - nearly all Frenchmen - who have written articles, pamphlets, or monographs on the artists, which have been chiefly eulogies, and at the best have either been brief or unsatisfactory. To those who have not yet felt the influence of the painters of the Barbizon School, the claim of impartiality may appear, in certain instances, somewhat questionable, but I have carefully avoided extreme commendation, and the praise accorded is believed in every case to be fully deserved. The chief interest of this book will by many be found in the illustrations, and to these I have given special attention. In a very few instances I have had to be content with rather weak representations of characteristic or epoch-marking pictures, but only because no better were obtainable. In other cases no apology is required, while grateful thanks are due to the owners of pictures and copyrights who have so kindly given me assistance. Mr. J. S. Forbes has been liberal as well as courteous in the permissions granted. Mr. Alexander Young has allowed me to reproduce several of his pictures, and many other collectors, both in Europe and America, have granted requests made to them. I have especially to mention: - Sir John Day; Heer Mesdag and Heer Tersteeg, The Hague; Mr. R. T. Hamilton Bruce, Edinburgh; Mr. T. G. Arthur, Glasgow; Mr. Charles Roberts, Leeds; Mr. Forbes-White, Dundee; Mr. G. N. Stevens, London; Mr. G. A. Drummond, Montreal, and Mr. G. I. Senev, New York. Messrs. Boussod, Valadon & Co., by whose courtesy the whole work has been prepared, have kindly aided me; Messrs. J. S. Virtue & Co., Messrs. Cassell & Co., M. Durand-Ruel, M. Baschet, and M. Obach have also given me valuable assistance. For the use of other illustrations not accorded to me by the persons and firms named, I have arranged for the copyrights, and to their owners also I have to acknowledge my obligation.

Download or read book Unruly Nature written by Scott Allan and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Théodore Rousseau (1812–1867), arguably the most important French landscape artist of the mid-nineteenth century and a leader of the so-called Barbizon School, occupies a crucial moment of transition from the idealizing effects of academic painting to the radically modern vision of the Impressionists. He was an experimental artist who rejected the traditional historical, biblical, or literary subject matter in favor of “unruly nature,” a Romantic naturalism that confounded his contemporaries with its “bizarre” compositional and coloristic innovations. Lavishly illustrated and thoroughly documented, this volume includes five essays by experts in the field. Scott Allan and Édouard Kopp alternately examine Rousseau’s diverse techniques and working procedures as a painter and as a draftsman, as well as his art’s mixed economic and critical fortunes on the art market and at the Salon. Line Clausen Pedersen’s essay focuses on Mont Blanc Seen from La Faucille, Storm Effect, an early touchstone for the artist and a spectacular example of the Romantic sublime in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek’s collection. This catalogue accompanies an eponymous exhibition on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum from June 21 to September 11, 2016, and at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek from October 13, 2016, to January 8, 2017.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These paintings - dreams of nature as a web of life in which human beings occupy a peripheral role - overwhelmed Rousseau's contemporaries with their novel light effects, original perspective, and "sheer profusion of visual sensation." While Baudelaire considered them superior to even Corot's works, they baffled art critics and have never fit convincingly into the received categories of naturalism, "pre-Impressionism," or modernism."--Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 100 works by artists such as Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot (1796-1875), Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867), Jean-François Millet (1814-1875), Claude Monet (1840-1926), Gustave Le Gray (1820-1884), and Eugène Cuvelier (1837-1900) explore the French phenomenon of plein-air (open-air) painting and photography in the region of Fontainebleau, a pilgrimage site for aspiring landscape artists. The forest also inspired a new school of landscape photography, as figures such as Gustave Le Gray and Eugène Cuvelier, working side by side with painters, explored the camera's potential to reveal nature in a fresh and unadorned manner. The exhibition also includes 19th-century artists' equipment and tourist ephemera.
