Download or read book John Ruskin written by James S. Dearden and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite professing a dislike of having his portrait taken, John Ruskin's footsteps were dogged by portrait painters, sculptors, caricaturists and photographers from the cradle to the grave and beyond. A thoroughly accessible book it lists and describes some 331likenesses made between 1822 and 1998. The three introductory chapters to this book survey Ruskin portraiture and the portraits, his general physical appearance througout his life, his hands, his mouth, his various illnesses and their effect on his appearance, his clothes, style of dress, size, tailors, their bills, etc. These opening chapters include many descriptions and reminiscences by Ruskin's friends and acquaintances, and those who portrayed him. The principal part of the book deals with the individual portraits, their history, where and why they were made, what Ruskin was doing at that time of his life and what his connection was with the artists in question. He was portrayed so regularly that this section is also effectively a potted Ruskin biography, based on the portraits. A 'catalogue raisonne' of the Ruskin portraits follows where the physical details of the works are listed, together with details of reproductions, exhibitions and provenance.

Download or read book Ruskin in Italy Letters to His Parents 1845 written by John Ruskin and published by Oxford : Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1972 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The letters Ruskin wrote home almost daily during his Italian tour of 1845 are here fully published for the first time. The tour had an immediate effect on the first two volumes of Modern Painters and marks the beginning of Ruskin's lifelong concern with Italian painting and with Italian Romanesque and Gothic architecture. The letters record the influences on him, his changing views and feelings, and are therefore an essential document for the understanding of his development as a critic. They also contribute a good deal of evidence toward the understanding of his enormously important relationship with his ageing parents. Not least important, the letters taken altogether make a delightful travel book, for they were written not only to inform, but to entertain"--Jacket.

Download or read book The Aesthetics of Matter written by Sarah Posman and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has often been argued that the arrival of the early-20th-century avant-gardes and modernisms coincided with an in-depth exploration of the materiality of art and writing. The European historical avant-gardes and modernisms excelled in their attempts to establish the specificity of media and art forms as well as in experimenting with the hybridity of the materials of their multiple disciplines. This third volume of the series European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies sheds light on the full range and import of this aspect in avant-garde and modernist aesthetics across all art forms and throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. The book’s contributions, written by experts from some 20 countries, seek to answer the following questions: What sort of objects and material, works and media help us to properly grasp the avant-garde and modernist “aesthetics of matter”? How were affects, emotions and sensory and bodily experiences transferred and transformed in the experiment with matter? How were “immaterial” things such as concepts of time changed in this aesthetic moment? What “material meanings” were disseminated in the cultural transfer and translation of objects? How did subsequent avant-gardes deal with the “aesthetics of matter” in their response to historical predecessors?
