Download or read book The Procaccini and the Business of Painting in Early Modern Milan written by Angelo Lo Conte and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book investigates the lives and careers of the Procaccini brothers: Camillo (1561–1629), Carlo Antonio (1571–1631) and Giulio Cesare (1574–1625), the most important family of painters working in northern Italy at the start of the seventeenth century. The Procaccinis' work is here analysed by interconnecting their individual stories and understanding their success as the combination of mutual artistic choices, a high level of specialization and precise business organization. The book looks at this family of painters as entrepreneurs, emphasizing their conscious response to the requests of public and private patrons, as well as their ability to balance instances of originality and imitation in an era characterized by a wide range of artistic opportunities, including religious commissions, national and international patronage and multifaceted markets. This book will be of interest to scholars studying art history, early modern studies, the art market, Italian studies and Italian history.

Download or read book Forgotten Masters written by William Dalrymple and published by Philip Wilson Publishers. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the East India Company extended its sway across India in the late eighteenth century, many remarkable artworks were commissioned by Company officials from Indian painters who had previously worked for the Mughals. Published to coincide with the first UK exhibition of these masterworks at The Wallace Collection, this book celebrates the work of a series of extraordinary Indian artists, each with their own style and tastes and agency, all of whom worked for British patrons between the 1770s and the bloody end of the Mughal rule in 1857. Edited by writer and historian William Dalrymple, these hybrid paintings explore both the beauty of the Indian natural world and the social realities of the time in one hundred masterpieces, often of astonishing brilliance and originality. They shed light on a forgotten moment in Anglo-Indian history during which Indian artists responded to European influences while keeping intact their own artistic visions and styles. These artists represent the last phase of Indian artistic genius before the onset of the twin assaults - photography and the influence of western colonial art schools - ended an unbroken tradition of painting going back two thousand years. As these masterworks show, the greatest of these painters deserve to be remembered as among the most remarkable Indian artists of all time.

Book excerpt: There is nothing quite like having your own business to make you feel financially independent and in charge of your own destiny. One easy business that you can start up, that is just right for the current economy, is a home painting business. Why home painting? People always need services. Even in the Great Depression, service businesses were still in hot demand. Since most people are not selling their homes and are staying put, many of them want to spruce things up a bit. Painting is one of the most inexpensive ways that people can fix up their surroundings. Most people do not know how to paint nor do they want to learn. They would rather hire a painter who is in the business to do this necessary, but messy, job. House painting is a recession proof business. It also works well when the economy is good and people are selling their homes. One of the first things that a real estate agent will advise someone who is looking to rent or sell a home is to give it a fresh paint job. House painting entails both inside and outside house painting. Both of them are basically the same concept, although different paints are used for inside and outside. Your company should offer as many services as possible in order to fit the needs of just about every customer. This book will teach you all you need to know about how to start your own home painting business, how to hire help, how to get customers, and what you need to know about starting any type of business. It will also give you an insight as to which are the right paints to use, the difference between paints, the different types of finishes and designs people like to have in the home, stains and even how to deal with customers who do not pay. It is not difficult to learn to paint. It is one of the few trades that does not require vocational training. You just need the right equipment, the willingness to work hard, a few simple tips and the desire to succeed and you will have so many painting jobs that you will not know what to do with them all. Even in today’s economy, people are searching for those who perform services. You can develop your own prosperous business and never look back at the 9 to 5 world again!

Download or read book The Business of Painting written by Arthur Cole and published by . This book was released on 2012-10-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year many highly skilled professionals in the painting trade attempt to go into business on their own. Even though they may be excellent painters, almost all of them fail. They fail because they don't know how to run a painting enterprise as a business. Knowing the trade is necessary but not enough. This book teaches the professional how to succeed in business from the initial organization to the most complex management skills. It provides easy-to-follow lessons in all the needed methods of management in the business of painting. (See the table of contents on its website, THEBUSINESSOFPAINTING.COM.)The author is a college graduate, a veteran of army's counterintelligence corps, a former public high school history teacher, and apprentice painter in his teens who thought he knew a lot about the trade. (he didn't).Even while teaching school he ran a sideline business in house painting and hired experienced painters to work for him while he was busy in the school. During school vacations he worked alongside of his more skilled employees and learned from them a lot more of the trade. He also picked up lots of management acumen by way of trial and error and quizzing other business people who always seemed willing to pass along their knowledge. This seemingly foolish approach to a career as a painting contractor did actually work but it took years to perfect. Following the guidance of this book can allow the professional painter to bypass all the mistakes made by the author in his progress to success. the business he started by doing the work by himself now employs fifty painters and works in six states.the author decided very early that he disliked working for homeowners and moved into commercial work where quality requirements were high and most of the customers were honest. As of this publication date, the author is now in his twentieth year of retirement.His teaching background influenced his urge to write this book and he sincerely hopes and expects that all painting contractors who follow its advice can succeed.
