内容説明
What kind of advice was available to somebody wishing to embark upon oil painting in England between 1850 and 1900? This book offers a collection of Victorian instruction on how and what to paint, linked to crucial advice about art, its meaning and its relation to contemporary life, given mostly by practising artists, important and often popular in their time, but whose lectures and writings are long overdue for reappraisal: Leslie, Hamerton, O'Neil, Poynter, Watts, Leighton, Armitage, Quilter and Herkomer. Here beyond the familiar voices of Ruskin, Whistler and Pater, we have a whole range of experience from an age in which issues about painting were hotly debated by large numbers of people: professional artists, amateurs, critics, gallery-goers and Academy students. This anthology brings back to life the humour, seriousness, ambitions, eccentricities and controversies of people whose work deserves recognition for having shaped the nature of mainstream Victorian art. It includes Mrs Jonathon Foster's advice on how to select a proper subject; G.F.
Watts' evidence to the commission of enquiry into the Royal Academy in 1863, and his own notes on his palette and technique; the remarks by Poynter about Ruskin's ideas which caused controversy in 1872; Herkomer's exasperated account of the follies of art students in his "academy" at Bushey; and Hamerton's problems painting in the Scottish highlands in the 1860's packing a revolver for protection. There are short biographical introductions to each writer, and an appendix containing a reproduction of the Rules of the Royal Academy in 1899, and a list of the pallettes of major Victorian artists.
