Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Whistler and Others Masterpieces do not very often require or invite this method of treatment; and I confess that masterpieces seem to me worthiest of study, and likeliest to inspire delight. But this method - this order of Criticism - has, in some measure, caught on amongst us, because in England the contribution of an idea is ever less welcome, as it is also ever less easy, than the contribution of a fact.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of James McNeill Whistler: An Appreciation Years' study of Mr. Whistler's art, and the aim of the authors has been to point out the characteristics of his works, accepting them as they are, and not attempting to find in them qualities which they do not possess. It is their desire to lead others, to whom his art has hitherto been unfamiliar or incomprehensible, to a study which cannot fail to be a source of delight. The book was begun some two and a half years ago, but was put aside for a time and when taken up again, it was with the intention of laying it before Mr. Whistler as a slight testimony of the writers' admiration for his genius. His sudden death, how ever, which occurred while the proofs were pass ing through the press, prevented the fulfilment of.

Whistler's share in those associations is very large, and he has left in his paintings the memory of many a night, as he returned beside the river. Before Whistler painted it, night was.

Book The Whistler Journal  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Whistler Journal Classic Reprint written by E. R. Pennell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Whistler Journal Roberts and Mr. Bier, who helped us to install it in the Print Di vision, and Miss Wright and Miss Bier for much work. It has been the American public alone which has shown no interest. The American public of the present will not last, or the country will not last. But the name and fame of Whistler will endure. Messrs. Knoedler have greatly aided us by furnishing us with many photographs and much information about works in their possession. Messrs. Rosenbach supplied us with the Greaves portraits in abun dance, and we have shown and told the performances of the Brothers Greaves for the first time. Mrs. Eddy has given us the portrait of her husband which, during his lifetime, he refused to publish even in his own book on Whistler. Messrs. Keppel have, as usual, helped in many ways, and Messrs. Kennedy and Co. Especially, permitting us to use the illustrations in their catalogue of the lithographs; and so have other dealers who know and under stand. They have also shown us, and consulted us about, the end less fakes with which the country is flooded, and are a delightful contrast to those amateur collectors who know everything about Whistler and cannot - some of them - tell his signature from Harper Pennington's to say nothing of a good work from a bad imitation; a contrast also to the amateur amateurs and the business men who, if they employed the same methods in collecting cash as they do in collecting art, would find themselves in the bank ruptcy court in six months - and occasionally they do. The re storer too is abroad and works have been utterly ruined, notably The Lange Leizen in the Johnson Collection, all the skin cleaned, scraped, scrubbed ofi it.

Book Recollections and Impressions of James A  McNeill Whistler  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Recollections and Impressions of James A McNeill Whistler Classic Reprint written by Arthur Jerome Eddy and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections and Impressions of James A. McNeill Whistler Most of what is contained herein has been collected from time to time within the past ten years and jotted down for use in certain lectures on Whistler and his art. The lectures were, as is this book, a tribute to the great painter. The reminiscences are mostly personal. Many of the anecdotes - though perhaps equally familiar to others - were had from the artist's own lips. The views concerning his art, whether right or wrong, were formed while watching him at work day after day, and after many interviews in which, now and then, he would speak plainly concerning art. At the same time not so much as a thought must be attributed to him unless expressly quoted. The biographical data - just sufficient to furnish a connecting thread and aid in the appreciation - have been gathered from casual sources, and are, no doubt, subject to incidental corrections. Only when a duly authorized "life and letters" is published by those who have access to the material that must exist will the great artist be known by the world as he really was - a profoundly earnest, serious, loving, and lovable man. Meanwhile, those who believe in his art must - like the writer -speak their convictions for what they are worth.
