Description: "Product Description A highly important figure in the late eighteenth-century British art world John Raphael Smith was the most robust and prolific printmaker of his time. Smith not only produced nearly 400 prints -- about 130 of his own design and the others by such noted British artists as Joshua Reynolds George Romney and Joseph Wright of Derby -- he was also appointed "Mezzotinto Engraver" to the Prince of Wales and became an impresario of the print-publishing trade. This book is the first full-length study for nearly a hundred years of Smith's remarkable career in printmaking. Ellen D'Oench investigates how Smith conducted his engraving and publishing business and what his prints drawings and paintings reveal about the culture and morality of the society that viewed them. She includes a chronological catalogue raisonne with newly discovered works an inventory of his firm's publications and a catalogue of prints reproduced from his own original work. Along with full biographical information on Smith and his activities as an artist and publisher D'Oench pays close attention to the contemporary art market its operation and the placement of Smith's products within it. She details Smith's fascination with female genre subjects and his use of printed images to both exploit and critique his culture's manners and morals. Historians of paintings and prints social and cultural historians and scholars of women's history will all find in this book an array of delightful illustrations and interesting material." -- with a bonus offer-- . 1998. 0300076304 .

2000réf. 22887Piscataway New Jersey U.S.A.: Rutgers Univ Pr. New. Paperback. FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY BRAND NEW PRISTINE NEVER OPENED -- 207 pages. "Intellectually broad and carefully grounded in fundamental issues affecting the time role and place of the academy in society this collection explores the ways in which art and tradition are either maintained or rearticulated late in the Victorian Era. Art and the Academy forges a distinctive new way to look at the broad range of academic creativity against a complex network of changing social patterns." -Gabriel P. Weisberg department of art history University of Minnesota -- Throughout the nineteenth century academies functioned as the main venues for the teaching promotion and display of art. Contemporary scholars have for the most part denigrated academic art calling it formulaic unoriginal and repetitious. The contributors to Art and the Academy in the Nineteenth Century challenge this entrenched notion and consider how academies worldwide have represented an important system of artistic preservation and transmission. Their essays eschew easy binaries that have reigned in academia for over half a century and that simply oppose the avant-garde to academism. -- The essayists uncover the institutional structures and artistic practices of academies in England France Germany and Brazil. Investigating artistic protocols across national and cultural boundaries the scholars examine the relationship between artistic training and cultural identity. Their essays provide new insights into the ways in which institutions of art helped shape the nineteenth century's view of itself as an age of civilization amidst the turmoil of rapid social and cultural change. With an engaging mix of works by leading scholars Art and the Academy will be essential reading for anyone interested in the artistic cultural and social history of the nineteenth century. -- AUTHORS: Rafael Cardoso Denis is aDJunct professor visiting at the Escola Superior de Desenho Industrial Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Colin Trodd is senior lecturer in art history at the University of Sunderland." -- with a bonus offer--; TOS008324-1; Denis Rafael Cardoso Art and the Academy in the Nineteenth Century 19TH CENTURY ART ART HISTORY ART STUDY TEACHING HISTORY . 2000. 0813527953 .
