This book was released on 2018-06-27 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Confessions of a Caricaturist, Vol. 2 by Harry Furniss Excerpt In the year 1887 he startled the town and made a Society sensation by means of an exceedingly original enterprise which any man of less audacious and prodigious power of work would have shrunk from in its very inception. For years this Titanic task was in hand. This was his celebrated 'artistic joke, ' the name given by the 'Times' to a bold parody on a large scale of an average Royal Academy Exhibition. This great show was held at the Gainsborough Gallery, New Bond Street, and consisted of some eighty-seven pictures of considerable size, executed in monochrome, and presenting to a marvelling public travesties-some excruciatingly humorous and daringly satirical, others really exquisite in their rendering of physical traits and landscape features-of the styles, techniques, and peculiar choice of subjects of a number of the leading artists, R.A.'s and others, who annually exhibit at Burlington House.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harry Lauder, at Home and on Tour Some people can read romance in everything a degree removed from the commonplace, but in the story Of Harry Lauder's life unfolded in these pages there is very little of the romantic as the word is generally under stood. Here indeed, there is always more of fight than of favour, a deal more Of pluck than of luck. Certainly Lauder's genius was ever-present, making fame and fortune possible to him, but how many geniuses succumb in the struggle, lacking the essential quality Of determination, and die, un known and unsung? Harry Lauder is, I repeat, a genius, but he has nursed and fostered his natural endowments until to-day he is hailed wherever he goes as the outstanding figure in the profession which he adorns.

Download or read book Picturing the City written by Rebecca Zurier and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2006-09-06 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Zurier vividly locates the Ashcan School artists within the early twentieth-century crosscurrents of newspaper journalism, literary realism, illustration, sociology, and urban spectatorship. Her compassionate study newly assesses the artists' rejection of 'genteel' New York, their alignments with mass media, and their innovative ways of seeing in the modern city."—Wanda M. Corn, author of The Great American Thing: Modern Art and National Identity, 1915-35 If the Ashcan School brought a special and embracing eye to the city, Rebecca Zurier in her richly contextual and impressively interdisciplinary book explains and evokes that historically specific urban vision in all its richness. Finally, in Picturing the City, we have the study these painters have long deserved. And we gain new and delightful access to New York City at the moment of its emergence as a compelling embodiment of metropolitan modernity."—Thomas Bender, Director, International Center for Advanced Studies, New York University "Picturing the City is both meticulous and wide-ranging in its assessment of the Ashcan artists and their passionate efforts to represent New York. It charts their pleasures and problems, warmth and prejudices, generosity and differences, originality and formula. It takes seriously their habits as journalists and provides the most complete sense of their immersion in a world of urban spectatorship and vision. Rebecca Zurier has written a wonderful, timely book that will be a benchmark for any future discussions of them."—Anthony W. Lee, author of Picturing Chinatown: Art and Orientalism in San Francisco "Rebecca Zurier takes us on an intellectually exhilarating and breathtakingly beautiful visual voyage through turn-of-the-century New York City as the Ashcan painters saw it. As we watch them learn a new way of looking in the commercially dynamic, sensual New York of a century ago, we too see that time and place with fresh eyes. Inevitably, thanks to Zurier, the way we look at city life today will change as well."—Lizabeth Cohen, author of A Consumers' Republic: The Politics of Mass Consumption in Postwar America
