Download or read book Old Masters Worldwide written by Susanna Avery-Quash and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a result of the Napoleonic wars, vast numbers of Old Master paintings were released on to the market from public and private collections across continental Europe. The knock-on effect was the growth of the market for Old Masters from the 1790s up to the early 1930s, when the Great Depression put an end to its expansion. This book explores the global movement of Old Master paintings and investigates some of the changes in the art market that took place as a result of this new interest. Arguably, the most important phenomenon was the diminishing of the traditional figure of the art agent and the rise of more visible, increasingly professional, dealerships; firms such as Colnaghi and Agnew's in Britain, Goupil in France and Knoedler in the USA, came into existence. Old Masters Worldwide explores the ways in which the pioneering practices of such businesses contributed to shape a changing market.

Moreover, in other pictures painted by Fra Angelico about this time we find portraits of living personages, friends, and associates of his own. What is more likely than that he M should have painted the portrait of an artistic colleague for whom he evidently had a very great admiration? If, then, this figure with a black capuchon be a portrait of Michelozzo, as I hold it is, we have here another clue to the date of the picture. According to this representation, he would appear to have been about forty-five to fifty years old when the " Deposition " was painted. As Michelozzo is believed to have been born in 1396, this would place the execution of the picture between the years 1441 and 1446; and that is just the period to which considerations of style would lead us to assign it. There is another picture1 closely allied to this in which the portrait of Michelozzo occurs, and that is the dead Christ which the artist painted for the Confraternity of the Temple,2 and which is now in the Florentine Academy. It is in every way a much inferior work to the " Deposition," and the only really charming passage in it is the landscape with its distant hills and tranquil evening sky. "t-These three pictures, then--that is, the San Marco altar-piece and the two " Depositions " of Sta. Trinita and the Confraternity of the Temple--are the principal works in tempera of Fra Angelico's third period. We now come to the consideration of the monumental task which occupied the friar for the greater part of the time of his residence at S. Marco. Fra Angelico, we are told, began to decorate the walls of the new convent before the building was quite finished; but he cannot very well have set to work there until the...
Download or read book Behold the Dark Gray Man written by Katherine Campbell and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katharine Campbell's father Sholto Douglas was the hero of her childhood, an unconventional senior commander in the Royal Air Force described as 'a gloriously contentious character'. Following childhood abandonment and poverty, Sholto rose through the ranks of the fledgling RAF in the First World War before taking on a crucial role in the Second as head of Fighter Command and going on to serve as Military Governor in Germany in the war's devastating aftermath. But when Katharine was five years old, he began to be stolen away by strange night-time wanderings and daytime distress – including vivid flashbacks to his time signing death warrants in post-war Germany. The doctors called it dementia, but decades later, Katharine started researching her father's story and realised that she had observed the undiagnosed consequences of post-traumatic stress disorder. PTSD is a hot topic today. We're aware of the front-line soldier suffering from 'shell-shock' – but what about the senior officer giving the orders, who may be carrying hidden wounds accumulated over many years? We don't expect our military leaders to have PTSD, nor is it something they often recognise or acknowledge in themselves, yet this secret burden likely affects a surprising number of those making important tactical decisions. A thought-provoking insight into the damage done by military conflict, Behold the Dark Gray Man is the story of a daughter's search to understand the impact of war upon one of its most charismatic senior commanders.
