Download or read book Canvases and Careers written by Harrison C. White and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1993-03 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, the Académie des Beaux Arts, and institution of central importance to the artistic life of France for over two hundred years, yielded much of its power to the present system of art distribution, which is dependent upon critics, dealers, and small exhibitions. In Canvases and Careers, Harrison and Cynthia White examine in scrupulous and fascinating detail how and why this shift occurred. Assimilating a wide range of historical and sociological data, the authors argue convincingly that the Academy, by neglecting to address the social and economic conditions of its time, undermined its own ability to maintain authority and control. Originally published in 1965, this ground-breaking work is a classic piece of empirical research in the sociology of art. In this edition, Harrison C. White's new Foreword compares the marketing approaches of two contemporary painters, while Cynthia A. White's new Afterword reviews recent scholarship in the field.

For the very first time every known piece of work undertaken by the artist is included in this definitive volume.

It includes untraced works about which the author has uncovered copious amounts of information. A concise, comprehensive biographical text outlines Sandys' life, not only correcting mistakes, but also introducing previously unknown, newly researched aspects of the artists life. The catalogue is divided into five chronological periods and lavishly illustrated with glorious colour plates and hundreds of black and white photographs. This truly is the definitive guide to the life and works of Frederick Sandys. 75 colour & 450 b/w illustrations

Book The Academy and French Painting in the Nineteenth Century

Download or read book The Academy and French Painting in the Nineteenth Century written by Albert Boime and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Using words and works of both pupils and masters of the French Academy of Beaux-Arts, this fascinating book provides a wealth of information about the environment and studio practices of French official art from 1830 to 1890. Albert Boime describes the training of new pupils in the Academic ateliers, from the time they began and were set to copy engravings and casts to their copying of the old masters in the Louvre to their work before the live model and landscape painting out-of-doors. Boime's account includes not only a history of the transition from guild-controlled arts sanctioned by the church to an academic system sponsored by the state but also a reassessment of the positive role played by the Academy's teaching program in the evolution of the independent movements of the nineteenth century"--Publisher's description.

Book The Folkungs

  • Author : Margaretha Espersson Javits
  • Publisher : Bookbaby
  • Release : 2021-06
  • ISBN : 9781098369538
  • Pages : 660 pages

Download or read book The Folkungs written by Margaretha Espersson Javits and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2021-06 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on 14th Century Scandinavian actual events, The Folkungs--Sweden's royal family--is a generational saga interwoven with jealousy, conspiracy, rivalry, treason, regicide, exorcism, paganism, torture, witchcraft, shamanism, Falconry, folklore, power struggles, and deeply touching love stories. It begins at Nykoping Castle, Sweden, 1291. King Magnus is dead and his three young sons--Birger who is now king, Erik, and Valdemar --await the arrival of the appointed Regent of Sweden, a powerful noble and celebrated warrior, who will teach them the arts of governing, knighthood and skills of war until the young king comes of age. Under his tutelage, Erik will show himself to be the most intelligent and skilful of the three; Valdemar, the youngest, will look on in admiration, while the fledgling King, will bridle with insecurity. Arriving with the Regent is his young daughter, Kristina, who stares aghast at the royal fortress rising before her like a grim symbol of doom. Her fear is well founded: here wastes away a King usurped and imprisoned by his brother, where the future holds even darker treachery. As the young princes mature, King Birger proves himself to be increasingly weak and manipulated by the self-seeking Regent. Can Sweden be left prey to his inept rule? Alliances are formed across the borders as the royals start taking sides. Along with Scandinavia's folklore, magic and myths, the author's words are brought to life across the snowy landscapes, light summer nights, and medieval castles of Scandinavia.
