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 Whistler The time when Rossetti and his circle were foregathering chiefly at Rossetti's house, quiet Chelsea scarcely knew how daily were associations added which will always cluster round her name. 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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from James McNeill Whistler Those, however, who attempted to give prae tical expression to their dislike by breaking the butterfly on the wheel of hostile criticism, found in it an unexpected resisting force, rendering futile every effort to crush it. It arose phoenix like in fresh vigour from every attack, and com bined with its ethereal beauty a sting as piercing as that of a wasp. Whistler Wielded the pen with a virile force equal to that of his brush; he was an expert in the art Of self-defence, to which he gave the characteristic name of the Gentle Art Of Making Enemies, and he succeeded in con verting to his own point of View many of those who were most bitter against him, whilst he silenced the little remnant, who, though still un convinced, shrank from incurring his withering contempt. James mcneill Whistler was the son Of Major George Washington Whistler, whose father, a well-born Irish gentleman, emigrated to America in the early part of the nineteenth century. The wife of Major Whistler belonged to an aristocratic family of Baltimore, and her ancestors were amongst the first settlers in the Southern States Of the Union. The future master had, therefore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A National Book Critics Circle Finalist for Criticism A deeply Malcolmian volume on painters, photographers, writers, and critics. Janet Malcolm's In the Freud Archives and The Journalist and the Murderer, as well as her books about Sylvia Plath and Gertrude Stein, are canonical in the realm of nonfiction—as is the title essay of this collection, with its forty-one "false starts," or serial attempts to capture the essence of the painter David Salle, which becomes a dazzling portrait of an artist. Malcolm is "among the most intellectually provocative of authors," writes David Lehman in The Boston Globe, "able to turn epiphanies of perception into explosions of insight." Here, in Forty-one False Starts, Malcolm brings together essays published over the course of several decades (largely in The New Yorker and The New York Review of Books) that reflect her preoccupation with artists and their work. Her subjects are painters, photographers, writers, and critics. She explores Bloomsbury's obsessive desire to create things visual and literary; the "passionate collaborations" behind Edward Weston's nudes; and the character of the German art photographer Thomas Struth, who is "haunted by the Nazi past," yet whose photographs have "a lightness of spirit." In "The Woman Who Hated Women," Malcolm delves beneath the "onyx surface" of Edith Wharton's fiction, while in "Advanced Placement" she relishes the black comedy of the Gossip Girl novels of Cecily von Zeigesar. In "Salinger's Cigarettes," Malcolm writes that "the pettiness, vulgarity, banality, and vanity that few of us are free of, and thus can tolerate in others, are like ragweed for Salinger's helplessly uncontaminated heroes and heroines." "Over and over," as Ian Frazier writes in his introduction, "she has demonstrated that nonfiction—a book of reporting, an article in a magazine, something we see every day—can rise to the highest level of literature."
