内容説明

Born in 1798, Eugene Delacroix became the leading history painter of his generation. By his example, rather than as a formal teacher, he led the modern movement towards freedom of expression, lively brushwork, and bold colouring against the debilitated neo-classical tradition. Though labelled a "Romantic" by his contemporaries and to the present day, he was a passionate admirer of the antique and wished to emulate what he considered the true qualities of classical art - breadth of form combined with a feeling of life. He was the greatest colourist of the first half of the nineteenth century, and influenced Renoir, Van Gogh, and Seurat. This complete catalogue of Delacroix's paintings is the first to be attempted since 1885. The first volumes comprise a critical catalogue of the early paintings, and carry a full description, history, and bibliography of each picture. Delacroix's most famous Salon paintings such as "Death of Sardanapalus" and "Liberty Leading the People" are discussed at length. Paintings appear that have not previously been illustrated in books, and untraced or destroyed pictures are illustrated, where possible, from engravings.

内容説明

A sequel to the two highly-acclaimed volumes devoted to the early paintings of Delacroix, these volumes discuss and illustrate all the movable paintings and private decorations from the year of Delacroix's journey to Morocco, up to his death in 1863. The volume of plates contains illustrations of many previously unreproduced paintings, and the text is also generously illustrated with comparative drawings, prints and paintings.

内容説明

This two-volume set completes Lee Johnson's "Catalogue Raisonne" of Delacroix, of which volumes three and four were awarded the Mitchell Prize for the History of Art in November 1987. These final volumes aim to consider all Delacroix's works of art for public places relating them to the preparatory drawings and oil sketches. Besides discussing the preliminary studies and illustrating some that have not previously been published, the catalogue places each scheme in the context of the building or refurbishment project which gave rise to the commission. It also pays attention to questions of iconography and the thematic development of each programme and to later reports on condition and restoration. The views of critics and historians are cited and for works with more complex histories, the author has compiled a separate chronology, quoting the known documentary evidence and discussing the programme, execution, sources (both literary and visual) and critical reception in an interpretive introductory section. As with previous volumes, the finished works are reproduced in one volume, while the preparatory sketches fall within the catalogue text in the other.
