Download or read book Irish Painting written by Brian Kennedy and published by Roberts Rinehart Publishers. This book was released on 1997 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-colour introduction to Irish painting. It brings together a carefully selected, stimulating and stunning display of paintings and details, creating at once an important picture book and a useful history of Irish painting. Dr Brian P. Kennedy's selection and his essays on the sixty-five painters included reflect his contention that Irish talent has been as evident in the visual arts as it has been in the world of literature. Using over one hundred images from private and public collections, his survey results in a comprehensive history revealing the major developments in Irish painting between 1640 and 1953. The extensive bibliography provides in itself a much-needed resource for anyone interested in Irish painting.
Download or read book Painting Dublin 1886 1949 written by Kathryn Milligan and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-06 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delving into a hitherto unexplored aspect of Irish art history, Painting Dublin, 1886–1949 examines the depiction of Dublin by artists from the late-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Artists’ representations of the city have long been markers of civic pride and identity, yet in Ireland such artworks have been overlooked in favour of the rural and pastoral. Framed by the shift from city of empire to capital of an independent republic, this book examines artworks by Walter Osborne, Rose Barton, Jack B. Yeats, Harry Kernoff, Estella Solomons and Flora Mitchell, encompassing a variety of urban views and artistic themes. While Dublin is already renowned for its representation in literature, this book will demonstrate the many attractions it held for Ireland’s artists, offering a vivid visualisation of the city’s streets and inhabitants at a crucial time in its history.
Download or read book The Troubled Life of Richard Castle Ireland s Pre Eminent Early Eighteenth Century Architect written by Barbara Freitag and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Castle is widely regarded as one of the most important architects in eighteenth-century Ireland, yet this is the first book devoted to both Castle’s personal history and his professional career. The study builds on a wealth of information concerning his background. It investigates Castle’s Dutch and Sephardic ancestors, his father’s position at the Polish court, the military career of his siblings in the Saxon/Polish army, his wife’s Huguenot family, and his kinship with English economist David Ricardo. Making use of extensive research data, the book refutes commonly held misconceptions about Castle’s name, family, nationality and religion. This book will be of interest to architectural historians, readers interested in Irish/European cultural studies, and researchers into the Jewish diaspora and into early modern Europe in general.
Download or read book Inner empire written by Daniel Maudlin and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inner Empire explores the impact of imperial cultures on the landscapes and urban environments of the British Isles from the sixteenth century through to the twentieth century. It asserts that Britain’s four-hundred year entanglement with global empire left its mark upon the British Isles as much as it did the wider world. Buildings stood as one of the most conspicuous manifestations of the myriad relationships that Britain maintained with the theory and practice of colonialism in its modern history. Divided into two main sections, the volume’s content considers ‘internal’ colonisation and its infrastructures of control, order, and suppression, alongside wider relationships between architecture, the imperial economy, and cultural identity. Taken together, the essays in this volume present for the first time a coherent analysis of the British Isles as an imperial setting understood through its buildings, spaces, and infrastructure.

The book brings together Australian and international experts who investigate Piranesi’s world and its connections to the study of art and the practice of artists today.

This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on W.B. Yeats's ideal of mutual support between the arts, Karen Brown sheds new light on how collaborations and differences between members of the Yeats family circle contributed to the metamorphosis of the Irish Cultural Revival into Irish Modernism. Making use of primary materials and fresh archival evidence, Brown delves into a variety of media including embroidery, print, illustration, theatre, costume design, poetry, and painting. Tracing the artistic relationships and outcome of W.B. Yeats's vision through five case studies, Brown explores the poet's early engagement with artistic tradition, contributions to the Dun Emer and Cuala Industries, collaboration between W.B. Yeats and Norah McGuinness, analysis of Thomas MacGreevy's pictorial poetry, and a study of literary influence and debt between Jack Yeats and Samuel Beckett. Having undertaken extensive archival research relating to word and image studies, Brown considers her findings in historical context, with particular emphasis on questions of art and gender and art and national identity. Interdisciplinary, this volume is one of the first full-length studies of the fraternit?es arts surrounding W.B. Yeats. It represents an important contribution to word and image studies and to debates surrounding Irish Cultural Revival and the formation of Irish Modernism.
