New Titles The Drawings of Peter Paul Rubens

A Critical Catalogue, Volume One (1590–1608)

By Anne-Marie Logan & Kristin Lohse Belkin 2 vols, 536 p., 250+ col. ills, ISBN 978-2-503-59570-2 Book series: Pictura Nova, vol. 22

This is Volume I of the three-volume catalogue raisonné of all drawings considered by the authors to be by Rubens. It is the first publication that presents the artist’s entire drawn oeuvre in chronological order, previous such publications containing only selections of drawings. By leafing through the illustrations, this arrangement provides the user with a quick visual impression of the variety of techniques, media, subject and functions of Rubens’s drawings at an one time.

Scottish Portraiture 1644-1714

David and John Scougall and Their Contemporaries

By Carla van de Puttelaar 2 vols., 754 p., 1265 col. ills, ISBN 978-2-503-59727-0 New Book Series: Irreplaceable Portraits, vol. 1

This book is the first comprehensive publication on Scottish portraiture from the period 1644 to 1714, with an emphasis on the painters David Scougall (1625-1685), and his son John Scougall (1657-1737). Countless paintings have been photographed anew or for the first time, and have been compared in detail, which had hardly been done before, while information is also included on technical aspects and (original) frames.

Many Antwerp Hands

Collaborations in Netherlandish Art Edited by Abigail D. Newman and Lieneke Nijkamp 242 p., 80 col. ills, ISBN 978-1-912554-73-7

A fresh look at the phenomenon of artistic collaboration in the early modern Low Countries. The essays in this book draw upon economic and social history, current interests in immigration and mobility, print studies, and technical analysis, embracing a range of literary and archival sources along the way.

Interdisciplinary in their perspectives and methodologically diverse, these essays present both theoretical reflections on artistic collaboration and in-depth studies of particular artistpartnerships and collaboratively made objects.

9–13 SEPTEMBER 2021 Due to the ongoing pandemic and the global fluctuations of the covid-19 virus, travel restrictions have once again thwarted the staging of a physical incarnation of TEFAF Maastricht (usually held in March).

This autumn, TEFAF Online 2021 will offer a scaled down digital version of the fair with an even stronger emphasis on quality. The 255 exhibitors will only be permitted to show up to three objects that ‘tell a single, compelling story when in conversation with one another’.

Here we present a small group of highlights to illustrate some of the styles, eras, cultures and mediums embodied by the 700 or so objects to be offered.

Copley and West in England 1775–1815

art of both countries.

West and Copley have always and properly been viewed as the two pre-eminent eighteenth-century American artists, despite the fact that, at the age of twenty-one, West left his native shores in 1760, never to return. He went on to become immensely successful in England, becoming, among other things, the second president of the Royal Academy of Arts. Copley spent half his working life also in England. For a time, the two expatriate Americans had a close working relationship, that we can see substantially reflected in both the formal language and the subject matter of many of their best works, but it eventually and inevitably turned into rivalry.

The book begins with a brief prologue discussing the earliest of West’s depictions of recent historical events and of subjects set in America, painted prior to Copley’s arrival in England. It then follows the year-by-year evolution of Copley’s painting from 1775 to his death in 1815, with an underlying focus upon his ongoing give-andtake with West, and it ends with examination of hitherto little-known and unstudied major late paintings, from after 1800, by both artists.
