Publisher’s Note It would be hard to overestimate the luminous and enduring power of Van Gogh’s late work.We are delighted to be publishing Vincent van Gogh:TheYears in France, Complete Paintings 1886–1890 by the leading expert Walter Feilchenfeldt. Showing every known painting from those years at relative scale, not only does this book present a wealth of important new scholarship on the artist’s climactic period in France but it is the first to discuss the latest painting attributed to Van Gogh: the Sunset at Montmajour recently found in Amsterdam.

This year our relationship with Dulwich Picture Gallery has borne further fruit with two exciting publications looking at key periods in the work of some influential artists: Ben Nicholson andWinifred Nicholson andWhistler and the Thames. Both of these books are linked to important travelling exhibitions.We are very pleased to have worked with the Museum of London again – London’s Lost Jewels:The Cheapside Hoard sheds light on a peerless collection

of treasures both fascinating and exquisite.

Meanwhile our connection has continued with the Holburne Museum in Bath (JosephWright of Derby) and Watts Gallery (Frank Holl). A new collaboration with the National Trust sees a detailed examination of the Sixtus Cabinet at Stourhead – a Roman pietre dure masterpiece in the most elegant of English settings.

JOSEPH WRIGHT OF DERBY BATH AND BEYOND

Joseph Wright of Derby Bath and Beyond Amina Wright

Amina Wright

Am i n a Wr i gh t

Joseph Wright (1734–1797) arrived in Bath from his native Derby in November 1775. Recently returned from a tour of Italy, he came to the fashionable spa town to re-establish his business as a portrait painter, hoping to fill the vacancy left by Thomas Gainsborough the previous year. He returned to Derby just eighteen months later.

This book, the first to examine Wright’s little-known Bath period, places the artist in the context of a city then at the height of its unique cultural significance and dominated by lively social networks of literary salons, scientific clubs and well-to-do tradesmen. Using rarely-seen illustrations of his work, it considers his attempts to conquer a saturated portrait market with images of local celebrities, and his use of domestic spaces for public exhibition. In Bath, Wright employed his recollections of ‘wonderful sights’ in Italy to draw a crowd and amaze the public with cinematic spectacle. His celebrated views of fireworks in Rome and the terrors of Vesuvius were first exhibited in Bath.

The beauty he had experienced abroad would later inspire his depictions of the Derbyshire countryside as Wright reinvented himself as a landscape painter.

He also began to explore subjects from contemporary sentimental literature, inspired by antique sculpture, Laurence Sterne and his growing friendship with the poet William Hayley.

Beautifully illustrated and highly readable, JosephWright of Derby: Bath and Beyond sheds new light on a key moment in this important English artist’s career, deepening our understanding of his life and work as a whole.

The Art of the Dominican and Franciscan Orders in Renaissance Italy SANCTITY PICTURED

Trinita Kennedy With contributions by Donal Cooper, Holly Flora, Amy Neff and Janet Robson

The Art of the Dominican and Franciscan Orders in Renaissance Italy

Italy in the thirteenth century was transformed by two new religious orders, the Dominicans and the Franciscans. Whereas earlier religious orders had secluded themselves in monasteries in the countryside and lived off income from their property, the Dominicans and Franciscans settled in urban centres and lived as mendicants, or beggars, administering to the laity. The founding members of both orders took a vow of poverty, yet soon after their deaths their successors were building churches that rivalled cathedrals in size and splendour throughout Italy. The friars and nuns of these orders created a tremendous demand for works of all kinds – painted altarpieces, crucifixes, fresco cycles, illuminated choir books, and liturgical objects – to decorate their churches.

The works they commissioned illustrate the lives of their saints and depict miracles such as Saint Francis preaching to the birds, Saint Dominic dividing a single loaf of bread into enough food to feed many hungry friars, and Saint Clare rescuing a child mauled by a wolf. These visual narratives are notable for their naturalistic treatment and the emphasis on expressive gestures to show human emotions, both of which were significant new developments in Italian art.

This book accompanies an exhibition at the Frist Center for the Visual Arts featuring works of art from the collections of major American museums and libraries and of the Vatican. It is the first major study to examine the art of these rival religious orders together, exploring the ways in which they used art as propaganda to promote the charisma of their saints and to articulate their revolutionary concept of religious vocation. The essayists provide new insights into the significant contributions made by the Dominicans and the Franciscans to the artistic Renaissance in Italy during the period 1200 to 1550.

ROMAN SPLENDOUR, ENGLISH ARCADIA The Pope’s Cabinet at Stourhead

Roman Splendour, English Arcadia

The Pope’s Cabinet at Stourhead Simon Swynfen Jervis and Dudley Dodd

Simon Swynfen Jervis and Dudley Dodd

At Stourhead in Wiltshire, the Palladian mansion contains an extraordinary Roman cabinet glittering with gilt-bronze mounts, semi-precious stones and elaborate architectural ornament. Its façade conceals over 125 more-or-less secret drawers. The cabinet was brought to Stourhead in 1740 by Henry Hoare ‘the Magnificent’, of the Hoare banking dynasty; he had purchased it in Rome as made for Pope Sixtus V, the great rebuilder, whose papacy, from 1585 to 1590, coincided with the Spanish Armada. The superb quality of the ‘Sixtus Cabinet’ became apparent during restoration in 2006–7 and this prompted an investigation into its history.

This book commences with a comprehensive account of the insatiable English taste for Italian pietre dure, from the sixteenth century to the twentieth, and follows with a survey of the Roman pietre dure industry, hitherto unjustly neglected by comparison with Florence. A description and stylistic analysis of the cabinet itself precedes a trail of detection which takes it back to Pope Sixtus’s Roman villa, and then explores its tortuous descent through the Pope’s family to sale in 1740. Henry Hoare’s grand tour and his purchase of the cabinet led to its installation in a cabinet room at Stourhead, surrounded by Old Masters and with a new pedestal of triumphal arch form, incorporating reliefs of Pope Sixtus and his Roman monuments. Later his great-nephew, Sir Richard Colt Hoare created a new cabinet room, with embellishments by Thomas Chippendale the Younger. Horace Walpole and William Beckford were among the admirers of the cabinet, the focus of this remarkably wide-ranging study of Italian and English artistry, patronage and taste.

The text is lavishly illustrated with photographs of the cabinet and examples of other pieces of pietre dure inlaid furniture in English collections.

Frank Holl

Emerging from the Shadows

Francis ‘Frank’ Montague Holl (1845–1888) was one of the great painters of the Victorian era, notable for his tragic social realism as well as his penetrating portraits. Although highly respected in his lifetime, his early death meant that he never fully received the acclaim that his work merited.

This book represents the first retrospective of this significant artist. Exploring in parallel the subject paintings and the portraits, it considers the importance of Holl’s output and his continued relevance today. Leading scholars in the field look at different aspects of Holl’s painting, while full catalogue entries examine certain works in detail.

Emerging from the Shadows Edited by Mark Bills

Bills, Funnell and Sellars

Holl was a prodigiously talented artist who entered the Royal Academy Schools at the age of fifteen, where he won a gold medal for religious painting in 1863. A year later two of his paintings were accepted for exhibition at the Royal Academy, where he showed work regularly until his death.

He was commissioned by Queen Victoria to paint No Tidings from the Sea (1871; Royal Collection).

Holl became part of an informal school of socialrealist painting that flourished during the 1870s; its aim was to draw attention to the everyday conditions of the working classes and the poor, and implicitly to criticize the social structures that maintained such conditions. His great subject pictures, often on bleak themes, were frequently criticized for their darkness but found great favour with the public, who empathized with his depictions. Funeral processions, child mortality and grief were very much part of life and his emotive images struck a chord with his audience.

With contributions from Peter Funnell, Jane Sellars, Barbara Bryant, Sophie Gilmartin, Mary McMahon, Philip McEvansoneya and Carol Blackett-Ord

Frank Holl

In 1879, when Holl exhibited a portrait of the engraver Samuel Cousins at the Royal Academy it created a sensation. In the nine years of life that remained he painted over 150 portraits, some of the greatest of his age – achievements which can be seen on a par with those of Watts and Millais. His influence was felt in his lifetime and later through the work of Van Gogh who greatly admired Holl.

The Heath and the Horse

THE HEATH

AND

THE HORSE

A History of Newmarket Heath

The Heath and the Horse

A History of Newmarket Heath David Oldrey and Timothy Cox

David Oldrey and Timothy Cox

As might be imagined from its historic position as the acknowledged home of horseracing, there is no shortage of books about Newmarket; none, however, provides a definitive history of Newmarket Heath and the key figures who contributed to its transformation from untamed heath land to the world’s finest racing ground. This comprehensive and authoritative book is the first to trace this history from its early beginnings to the present day and to show how and why the sport of horseracing developed on the heath and spread globally from that base. All of the turf’s greatest racehorses and the larger-than-life characters integral to the heath’s history are included.

The first part provides a broad chronological history of the heath – from its discovery by James I in 1605 to the present day – and examines its relationship with and influence on racing nationally. The importance of the royal court in the development of the heath, the various swings of fortune it experienced once the monarchy lost interest, and the formation of the Jockey Club to control both the heath and the sport, are traced. Also discussed are Newmarket Heath’s influence in the breeding of a superior thoroughbred horse from native and eastern stock to be tested on its unique heath land, the methods of training down the centuries, and the many trainers and jockeys involved.

The second part concentrates on the heath and the Jockey Club. The topography and buildings of the heath are illustrated with maps, paintings and prints.

The development of the racecourses and races are traced in detail. There is a full account of the Jockey Club, its ownership of the heath and important new research into the pre-1750s existence of the club.

Before the days of photography paintings and prints provided the only visual evidence of how racing was conducted and what Newmarket looked like. Many of the pictures here reproduced show a general racing scene or the portrait of an unnamed horse. In a special feature the authors have analysed ten pictures in forensic detail to provide a richer understanding of the historic record.

WHISTLER

AND THE THAMES

An American in London

In the 1860s and 1870s Whistler produced a body of work based on the Thames. Pivotal to his career, this beautiful group of paintings, prints and drawings permits a detailed examination of his approach to composition, subject and technique. The earliest paintings, notably Brown and Silver: Old Battersea Bridge, produced soon after his arrival in London, mark one of his most profound and successful challenges to the art establishment of the time.

As well as allowing a detailed study of the evolution of an artist, these works show the Thames under contrasting climatic conditions, from Chelsea in Ice to the lovely Nocturne: Grey and Gold – Westminster Bridge, which depicts the deep blue of warm summer evenings. They bring to life Victorian London: the workers and women who frequented the Thames-side wharves and pubs, the shipping that thronged the Pool, the barges that navigated the perilous passage under the bridges, and the steamboats and ferries crowded with daytrippers.

Whistler and the Thames Margaret F. MacDonald and Patricia de Montfort

Margaret F. MacDonald

The Nocturnes of the 1870s mark an important breakthrough in Whistler’s art: his shift from French Realism to sophisticated harmony, based on mood and atmosphere, but still rooted in a literal rendering of the Thames waterside. The famous Blue and Gold – Old Battersea Bridge is the culmination of his bridge paintings; here the influence of Japanese prints reached its fullest form.

Patricia de Montfort

This comprehensive and handsomely illustrated study presents the definitive examples of Whistler’s radical new aesthetic approach to the time-honoured subject of the city and river. In addition, the works reveal to us his world – the exhibitions, the personalities, the buildings, the style, and the atmosphere which inform his art and root this American cosmopolitan securely in the ranks of artists inspired by London and the Thames.

As well as allowing a detailed study of the evolution of an artist, these works show the Thames under contrasting climatic conditions, from Chelsea in Ice to the lovely Nocturne: Grey and Gold – Westminster Bridge, which depicts the deep blue of warm summer evenings. They bring to life Victorian London: the workers and women who frequented the Thames-side wharves and pubs, the shipping that thronged the Pool, the barges that navigated the perilous passage under the bridges, and the steamboats and ferries crowded with daytrippers.

The nocturnes of the 1870s mark an important breakthrough in Whistler’s art: his shift from French realism to sophisticated harmony, based on mood and atmosphere, but still rooted in a literal rendering of the Thames waterside.

The famous Blue and Gold – Old Battersea Bridge is the culmination of his bridge paintings; here the influence of Japanese prints reached its fullest form.

This comprehensive and handsomely illustrated study presents the definitive examples of Whistler’s radical new aesthetic approach to the time-honoured subject of the city and river. In addition, the works reveal to us his world – the exhibitions, the personalities, the buildings, the style, and the atmosphere which inform his art and root this American cosmopolitan securely in the ranks of artists inspired by London and the Thames.

Alberto Giacometti

Alberto Giacometti The Art of Relation Timothy Mathews Revised, updated and expanded edition

Spindly, emaciated figures – like striding, skeletal angels. A woman who lies with her throat cut in a pool of bronze blood – a tangle of sexual violence and submission. The art of Alberto Giacometti demands a strong response; this book investigates why.

Giacometti was one of the most significant artists of the twentieth century.

His sensitive, often harrowing depictions of the human form continue to engage artists, theorists and audiences – Sartre, Breton and Winnicott are among the thinkers who were drawn to, and drew upon, these artworks. In The Art of Relation, Timothy Mathews explores the themes of space, fragility, trauma and relationality in the art of Giacometti, and the texts that respond or refer to them. Through the novels of W.G. Sebald, Samuel Beckett and Cees Nooteboom, and the theories of Bertolt Brecht, which recasts the iconic L’Homme qui marche as Walter Benjamin’s Angel of History, Matthews asks what encounters with Giacometti’s pieces can tell us about the history of our own time, and the ways in which we look at the world.

After dramatically changing his style during the Second World War, embarking on a lifelong quest to represent the human form, locate it in space and bear witness to the experience of the other, Giacometti repeatedly returned to the key themes of depth and flatness, memory and attachment through his diverse and agile sculptures and writings. This book traces his search for the humanity at the heart of Cubism, Surrealism and Futurism, his uneasy engagement with different representations of modernity, and locates the force in Giacometti’s attenuated human figures, bold yet elusive, reaching out while retreating from any possibility of being fully owned.

Both a critical study of Giacometti’s life, art and writing style, and an investigation of their uncanny and enduring affective power, Alberto Giacometti:The Art of Relation engages meaningfully with contemporary critical discourse to uncover the nature of human attachment, and the humility of relating to art.

The Stylemakers

The Stylemakers

Classic Modernist Design 1915–1945 Mo Amelia Teitelbaum

In 1920s Paris a new style was born. Turning his back on the curves and embellishments of Art Nouveau and Art Deco, iconic interior decorator Jean-Michel Frank allied the linear proportions of late eighteenth-century furniture to a twentieth-century perception, paring down superfluous detail to the essence of classic modernism.

This new style would have been the first manifestation of minimalism and classic modernism had Frank’s ideas not been advocated and practised, long before, by the woman to whom he said he owed more or less everything he knew. This ‘Lady from Chile’ as Cecil Beaton called her, was Eugenia Errázuriz, early patron and lifelong friend of Picasso and Stravinsky.

Although she spent sixty years of her life in Europe, Eugenia Errázuriz was from Chile and came to be part of a truly international group of stylemakers in Paris. A circle of artists, musicians, composers, choreographers, fashion designers, interior designers, writers, patrons of the arts and collectors came together. Avant-garde in every sense of the term, they flouted convention and openly shared their passions artistically, socially and sexually. Prominent in the circle were wealthy South Americans, whose love for the fine French cabinetmakers of the late eighteenth century and willingness to move boldly into the twentieth century, to espouse the new while respecting the best of the past, meant that they made a significant contribution to the success of the classicmodernist style.

The names of those who were part of this charmed circle appear on the cover of this book. Their lives and lifestyle, their interchange of partners and ideas led to innovation in every field of the arts.

Following a BA in French and an MA in South Asian studies, Mo Teitelbaum found herself in Paris in the early 1970s, engaged in research for a PhD on the history of French Indochina. One single event then made her change focus as a historian – a meeting with Eileen Gray.

The article she wrote on the ninetysix-year-old designer, published in the Sunday Times Magazine, was the first to reach a mass readership. Major museum exhibitions on Eileen Gray followed.

Concerned now that other extraordinary lives and talents may have been overlooked, Teitelbaum now dedicates herself to retrieving ‘lost’ histories to present to a wider public. For example, she wrote about the little-known stark and unique architecture of the first modernist villa on the Mediterranean – Mallet-Stevens’ Villa Noailles – published in The World of Interiors. Six years of research in South America resulted in The Stylemakers.

The Origins of Romantic Painting

The Origins of Romantic Painting Delacroix and his Forgotten World

The Origins of Romantic Painting

Delacroix and his Forgotten World Margaret MacNamidhe

Margaret MacNamidhe

The image of Eugène Delacroix as an august artist with an august oeuvre was initially frozen into place by posthumous tributes and it has continued to the present. He was one of the finest yet least understood painters of the nineteenth century, the golden age of the French Romantic movement. He is remembered best for his masterpiece, La Liberté guidant le people, but few of his works have received the kind of constant, fascinated revisiting that has sealed the iconic status of Théodore Géricault’s Le Radeau de la Méduse, for example. This book is one of the first to look carefully at individual paintings by Delacroix, especially at one of his most important works – a crucial but often overlooked painting from early Romanticism’s heyday, Scène des massacres de Scio.

The Scio ostensibly depicts an episodic aftermath of violent events from the Greek War of Independence (1821–32) but its slumped figures and subdued atmosphere do nothing to earn this description. Its defining characteristic – figures that appear simultaneously overwrought and utterly listless – remains unexplained by the attention to political contexts, gender roles, or other concerns that have articulated the reception of Delacroix. Margaret MacNamidhe brilliantly argues that the Scio represents an effort to furnish new models in a tradition that had become increasingly problematic. The painting’s mass of bodies arguably defines Delacroix’s contribution to French painting: his ebbing interest in depicting a purposeful, singular subjectivity, his increasing concentration on groups simultaneously trapped by and released from the most anguished of circumstances.

The Sacred Architecture of Byzantium

The Sacred Architecture of Byzantium

Art, Liturgy and Symbolism in Early Christian Churches Nicholas N. Patricios

The churches of the Byzantine era were built to represent heaven on earth.

Architecture, art and liturgy were intertwined in them to a degree that has never been replicated elsewhere, and the symbolism of this relationship had deep and profound meanings. Sacred buildings and their spiritual art underpinned the Eastern liturgical rites, which in turn influenced architectural design and the decoration which accompanied it.

Nicholas N. Patricios here offers a comprehensive survey, from the age of Constantine to the fall of Constantinople, of the nexus between buildings, worship and art. His identification of seven distinct Byzantine church types, based on a close analysis of 370 church building plans, will have considerable appeal to Byzantinists, lay and scholarly. Beyond categorizing and describing the churches themselves, which are richly illustrated with photographs, plans and diagrams, the author interprets the sacred liturgy that took place within these holy buildings, tracing the development of the worship in conjunction with architectural advances made up to the fifteenth century. Focusing on buildings located in twenty-two different locations, this sumptuous book is an essential guide to individual features such as the synthronon, templon and ambo and also to the wider significance of Byzantine art and architecture.

The Lost Manuscript of Frédéric Cailliaud

The Lost Manuscript of Frédéric Cailliaud Arts and Crafts of the Ancient Egyptians, Nubians, and Ethiopians Translated and edited by Andrew Bednarski

The travel accounts, drawings, and collections of Frédéric Cailliaud were an important early contribution to the birth of the new scientific discipline of Egyptology in the first half of the nineteenth century. But one of his major works – on the arts and crafts of ancient Egypt – was never published. For the first time here, his exquisite colour plates are presented alongside a translation of his original French text describing them. Explanatory material by Andrew Bednarski and other scholars puts the work in context.

Arriving in Egypt in 1815, Cailliaud embarked upon a series of explorations that included the rediscovery of the Roman emerald mines at Mount Zabora and ancient routes to the Red Sea, and expeditions in the Eastern and Western Deserts and the land we know today as Ethiopia. He made copious notes on the flora and fauna, people and antiquities he saw, and took a collection of over two thousand objects back to France. Cailliaud’s beautifully rendered watercolours of scenes on ancient Egyptian tombs and temples (viewed before Champollion’s deciphering of Egyptian hieroglyphs) show animated depictions of ancient daily life, with which he draws parallels to the nineteenth-century activities he observed around him. This is a work that will appeal not only to Egyptologists (professional and amateur), but also to historians, art historians, and readers interested in design. The original French text, never before published, is included in electronic form.

Frédéric Cailliaud (1787–1869) was a French naturalist and mineralogist, and curator of the museum of Nantes. In 1815 he arrived in Egypt and began his extensive explorations of the country, reaching also into modern Sudan and Ethiopia, making copious notes and sketches as he traveled.

The Visual World of Muslim India

The Visual World of Muslim India

The Art, Culture and Society of the Deccan in the Early Modern Era Laura E. Parodi

Between the fourteenth and eighteenth centuries, the Deccan stood at the crossroads of far-reaching commercial and diplomatic networks. It ranged from Arabia and Iran to East Asia and, increasingly, fell within the orbit of European colonial expansion. This resulted in an immensely rich visual culture in the region, shaped further by the dynamic encounters between the different versions of Islam patronized by the ruling dynasties of the period, and diverse local linguistic, religious and artistic traditions.

This new book is the first richly illustrated and comprehensive exploration of the art of the late medieval and early modern Deccan. It explores the ways in which court art, artefacts and built environments were created and experienced, the reasons behind their creation, and the other agencies involved besides and beyond the court. This will be an invaluable resource for all interested in the visual culture of the Islamic world.

The Practical Watch Escapement

The Practical Watch Escapement George Daniels

One of George Daniels’s central contributions to horology was his co-axial escapement. Observing over many years that the dominant lever escapement begins to change its rate after a year or two – a disturbance undoubtedly caused by the sliding action of the impulse elements of the escapement – Daniels set about developing a mechanism that avoided this problem. The result of his efforts was the co-axial escapement, a mechanism in which he sought to combine the strengths and eliminate the deficiencies of existing watch escapements, the lever escapement foremost among them. First devised in 1977, today it remains largely the same as fitted in watches of Daniels’s own manufacture, as well as those of several wrist-watch manufacturers. This book explains the action of the escapement in terms accessible to both expert and layperson, and is accompanied by a series of detailed line drawings.

The Art of Faith

3,500 Years of Art and Faith in Norfolk

This richly illustrated book examines the principal ways by which artists have explored the geology of the land, paralleling this study with that of the human body. The book is divided into six thematic sections that explore the expression of man’s place in the universe.

G.F. Watts and Mary Watts at Compton

Art at the Rockface

In no other form are the ideals of the Renaissance better exemplified than in small bronze sculpture. This book examines one of the finest collections in the world, and provides a lucid account of the ways in which the sculptures were modelled, cast, assembled, tooled and coloured.

The book tells the story of the impact of G.F.Watts, a major nineteenthcentury artist, and his wife Mary Watts on Compton, a small village in Surrey which became their artists’ retreat and where they built the Watts Gallery, the Compton Pottery, and the extraordinary Cemetery Chapel.

This book celebrates the impact of faith on the art of a region with a long history of migration and diverse patterns of belief. The universality of the theme, along with its clear relevance to the history of one region and its cultural identity, makes this a celebration of more than local importance, with a reach well beyond that of the traditional survey.

Across the centuries, Norfolk has been the home to many and varied faiths. Vikings, AngloSaxons and Romans all came with their own belief systems. During the Roman period, Christians also settled in this region and eventually – after a period of conflict – Christianity became the official religion. Other religions flourished too.

In the middle ages there were thriving Jewish communities in Thetford, Bishops (now Kings) Lynn and Norwich, even though they suffered severe persecution from their Christian fellow citizens.

From the fifteenth century onwards, there was a bewildering number of different branches of Christianity throughout the diocese of Norwich, an area significantly larger than the county boundary of Norfolk today.

In this region, the official and uniform religion of Protestant Christianity was only ever a general truth.

Amongst others, there were Lollards, Catholics, Calvinists, Laudians, Puritans, Huguenots, Presbyterians and Quakers. Over the past two centuries a new pattern of diversity has emerged.

To list but a few of the faiths now practiced by the citizens of Norfolk: there are Sikhs, Muslims, Pagans, Buddhists, Hindus and Mormons as well as older and more recently formed communities of Jews and Christians. Intriguingly, the low-lying landscape of this region of Britain can be seen to have had a lasting impact upon the sacred sites of many of these varied faiths.

Lynda Benglis Art in Context Susan Richmond

Benglis has not merely challenged the status quo. She has tied it in knots, melted it down and poured it across the floor, cast it in glass, clay and bronze. This book examines in depth the work and critical neglect of an artist who, perhaps more than any of her contemporaries, changed the face of American art in the 1960s and 1970s, and continues to demand our attention.

Illustrated throughout with her colourful and vibrant paintings, this is the story of English artist Janice Sylvia Brock.

It follows the fascinating and at times harrowing journey of a unique talent, who survived childhood illness and despite disability became an internationally successful painter.

Janice Sylvia Brock: My Life on Canvas is the first book to combine her full biography with the largest selection of images yet published.

Commencing with Brock’s carefree childhood, we learn how she then started painting from a hospital bed aged eleven, how she built her artistic business, overcame tragic events including the death of her brother, survived broken marriages and of the healing that began with her first travels to the Caribbean – where she finally achieved her dream to have a studio and gallery in Barbados.

From the early, detailed Pre-Raphaelite-inspired pictures, through sun-drenched Caribbean scenes, to the contemplative oval heads that characterise her current paintings, Brock shows the ability to soak up a huge variety of influences – whether they be Impressionism, Expressionism or even elements of Surrealism – then turn them around and give her own interpretation.

Janice divides her time between Barbados and the UK with studios in both and she has a large international following. This is a celebration of an artist at the height of her powers.

Delftware in the fitzwilliam

m

uch that is beautiful and unusual is revealed in this complete catalogue of English and Irish delftware in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. The greater part of the collection was bequeathed

by Dr J.W.L. Glaisher in 1928, and much of it is little known. A detailed publication has long been overdue, and here illustrated in full and resplendent colour are 588 items, many with multiple views. The strength of Dr Glaisher’s collection is the English earthenware of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, particularly delftware: no better assemblage has ever been made by a single collector. He amassed objects with great academic rigour over a period of more than thirty years, concentrating particularly on dated pieces while always exercising a discriminating and aesthetical eye.

Michael Archer’s catalogue provides details of date and place of manufacture, size, body, glaze, decoration and provenance with a full discussion where appropriate. Julia Poole has contributed a fascinating chapter with much new material on Dr Glaisher’s life and the extraordinary breadth of his collecting interests. There is also a general introduction to delftware, including a description of the manufacturing process; further sections give indexes and exhaustive information on all the works.

Eric Kennington (1888–1960) was one of the most talented British portraitists of the twentieth century. His penetrating charcoal and pastel portraits were greatly admired by many of his leading artistic contemporaries including Wyndham Lewis, Stanley Spencer, Paul Nash, Edward Wadsworth, Henry Moore, Augustus John, William Orpen and John Singer Sargent. His draughtsmanship was also held in high regard by famous contemporaries in many fields and he could count as friends such as: T.E. Lawrence; Robert Graves; Siegfried Sassoon; George Bernard Shaw; J.B. Priestley; Kenneth Clark; John Rothenstein; Basil Liddell Hart; Julian Huxley and H.E. Bates.

The Face of Courage Eric Kennington, Portraiture and The Second World War

Jonathan Black

American Originals from the National Archives

Beneath the Skin

The Face of Courage

This is the first book to focus on some of the nearly 230 works he produced during the Second World War, firstly as an official war artist working for Kenneth Clark’s War Artist Advisory Committee at the Ministry of Information and then in a semi-official capacity for the Ministry of Labour, the War Office and London Transport. The majority of his drawings were portraits but also included are examples of his attractive landscapes as well as haunting symbolic works – inspired by powerful feelings evoked in wartime and the individuals in uniform he met as a war artist.

The book draws upon a rich vein of unpublished archival material and documentation while including imagery that has not been reproduced in over half a century as well as works which have never hitherto appeared in colour.

Different chapters discuss the fascinating portraits he produced; of sailors who had survived the Battles of the River Plate and of Narvik, of fighter pilots who flew day and night during the Battle of Britain and the Blitz, of tank crews, munitions workers, men of the Home Guard who had already experienced the hell of the trenches and of employees of London Transport who had displayed ‘grace under pressure’ during the worst of the bombing in 1940–41. The portraits are accompanied by an array of enthralling stories of supposedly ordinary men and women who displayed the most extraordinary physical, mental and moral courage when confronted by the test of Total War. Kennington’s frequently hazardous experiences as a war artist are explored along with his often fractious relations with his employers at the Ministry of Information who were uneasy with his determination to celebrate individual servicemen who had killed for their country rather than promote non-combatants and civilian sitters more compatible with an official narrative that emphasised the ‘People’s War’ and the value of collective endeavour.

Emerging from the Shadows Francis ‘Frank’ Montague Holl (1845–1888) was one of the great painters of the Victorian era, notable for his tragic social realism as well as his penetrating portraits. Although highly respected in his lifetime, his early death meant that he never fully received the acclaim that his work merited.

This book represents the first retrospective of this significant artist. Exploring in parallel the subject paintings and the portraits, it considers the importance of Holl’s output and his continued relevance today. Leading scholars in the field look at different aspects of Holl’s painting, while full catalogue entries examine certain works in detail.

Holl was a prodigiously talented artist who entered the Royal Academy Schools at the age of fifteen, where he won a gold medal for religious painting in 1863. A year later two of his paintings were accepted for exhibition at the Royal Academy, where he showed work regularly until his death.

He was commissioned by Queen Victoria to paint No Tidings from the Sea (1871; Royal Collection).

Holl became part of an informal school of socialrealist painting that flourished during the 1870s; its aim was to draw attention to the everyday conditions of the working classes and the poor, and implicitly to criticize the social structures that maintained such conditions. His great subject pictures, often on bleak themes, were frequently criticized for their darkness but found great favour with the public, who empathized with his depictions. Funeral processions, child mortality and grief were very much part of life and his emotive images struck a chord with his audience.

Frank Holl

In 1879, when Holl exhibited a portrait of the engraver Samuel Cousins at the Royal Academy it created a sensation. In the nine years of life that remained he painted over 150 portraits, some of the greatest of his age – achievements which can be seen on a par with those of Watts and Millais. His influence was felt in his lifetime and later through the work of Van Gogh who greatly admired Holl.

The book explores the paintings that Robinson produced whilst he was at Giverny, France, in the late 1880s and early 1890s. It also shows how Robinson, who came into contact with Monet during his visits to Giverney, absorbed and translated the French master’s working method, style, and subject matter.

This volume celebrates the wealth and diversity of the arts of India created for the life of courts and temples from 1000 BC to the twentieth century.

er image Brooch in the form of a salamander Cheapside Hoard, set with Colombian emeralds n diamonds.

In 1912, labourers on a building site in Cheapside in the City of London unearthed a great trove of gemstones and jewels which had lain undisturbed for some three hundred years. Known and celebrated as the Cheapside Hoard, it is still the largest cache of its kind to have been discovered. These objects, dazzlingly beautiful, intricate and often astonishing, are evocative emissaries from London’s past. The Cheapside Hoard remains the single most important source of our knowledge of the Elizabethan and early Stuart jewellers’ trade and, by extension, life and fashion in London society of the era.

London’s Lost Jewels has been written to accompany a glittering new exhibition at the Museum of London, which marks the hundredth anniversary of the original public display and for the first time reveals the Cheapside Hoard in its entirety.

It provides much new information about the city’s role in the international gem and jewellery trade during one of the most dynamic periods of English history. A wealth of fascinating stories and lavish illustrations bring these exquisite treasures to life.

In 1912, labourers on a building site in Cheapside in the City of London unearthed a great trove of gemstones and jewels which had lain undisturbed for some three hundred years. The wealth of fascinating stories and lavish illustrations presented in this book bring these exquisite treasures to life.

Masheck reads Loos as a witty, ironic rhetorician who has all too often been taken at face value. Far from being the anti-architect of the modern era, Masheck’s Loos is ‘an unruly yet integrally canonical artist-architect’.

This is a brilliantly written revisionist reading of a perennially popular architect.

Sketchbooks and Prints

The definitive work on this major German Expressionist painter

Volume III Sketchbooks and Prints

The Complete Works

Franz Marc (1880–1916) was one of the most important members of the Blue Rider group, together with other outstanding artists such as Vassily Kandinsky, Gabriele Münter, August Macke, Paul Klee and Alfred Kubin. The group marked the high point in German Expressionism and had a profound influence on international art during the brief period from its formation to the beginning of the First World War.

Annegret Hoberg and Isabelle Jansen

This third and final volume of the full-colour catalogue raisonné of Franz Marc covers all the artist’s sketchbooks and prints. The thirty-three sketchbooks have been reconstructed and the leaves presented in their original sequence, including more than 750 new entries taken from the individual folios. The new catalogue on Marc’s prints provides an exhaustive documentation of the various editions of the well-known woodcuts in particular. As in the first two volumes, the chronology of works has been fundamentally revised and brought up to date in line with the most recent research. Together with those two other volumes, the paintings (vol. I), and the watercolours, gouaches, drawings and postcards (vol. II), this book now makes Franz Marc’s complete œuvre accessible to the general public in a form that has never been available before. In doing so it represents the standard work for lovers of art, scholars and collectors alike, giving many fresh insights into this remarkable figure.

Munch’s striking and emotive graphic works have fascinated people all over the world for more than a century. He arranged a number of exhibitions of his prints in his lifetime, and was represented in many print rooms and important private collections in Europe before World War II. Since then his fame and influence on subsequent image-making have grown and grown. When he died in 1944 Munch bequeathed his own vast collection of some 17,000 print impressions, from a total output that amounted to between 20,000 and 25,000, to the City of Oslo. In 1963, the Munch Museum opened its doors to the public, and since then Munch’s prints have been shown in numerous exhibitions worldwide.

Oriental Rugs contain few designs that are just designs and this survey aims to elucidate the meaning of the symbols incorporated into them. The book is divided into two parts on Middle Eastern and Turkoman symbols, and Chinese symbols.

MacNamidhe combines study of art theory, theatre and philosophy to help illuminate Delacroix’s great project and to rethink his reputation as a Romantic, along with his position in French painting as a whole.

This monograph reappraises an artist who, at the time of his death in 1931 was probably the best-known painter in Britain. The book reveals the full variety of his work, from his revitalization of the nude to his extraordinary allegories and war paintings, and analyses the self-portraits that are a particular feature of his work.

Situated on the outskirts of London, in Kingston upon Thames, it is a rare surviving example of a spacious and progressive late modern house and garden that remains largely unaltered. Designed by the British modernist architect Kenneth Wood in 1965, it still retains its period interior décor, contemporary furnishings acquired through Terence Conran’s two design firms, Conran Design Group and Conran Contracts, and the distinctive art collection of its owner – including works by Chagall, Frink, Hepworth, Lowry, Rodin and many more – which was an integral part of its conception. Based on previously unpublished material and photographs, this heavily illustrated publication brings together leading researchers in their respective fields who chart the history of the house and its collections.

This text re-examines the work John Piper was officially commissioned to make during the Second World War and puts it context with work from pre-war and post-war years. Examples of Piper’s oeuvre included are his theatre designs, architectural paintings, the Recording Britain project neo-Romanticism and Welsh landscape paintings.

The first book to focus on French artist Camille Pissarro’s transformation from a Barbizon landscape painter to one of the founders of the Impressionist movement. It features fifty paintings, from works exhibited at the Paris Salons of the 1860s to his stunning entries in the first Impressionist exhibition in 1874.

Through his modest and witty autobiography, an essay by an eminent German art critic, and above all, through his paintings and drawings, this book presents a study of a truly remarkable artist-intellectual deeply involved in post-Second World War international art trends and the political and cultural life of Serbia and former Yugoslavia.

Ivor Roberts-Jones (1913–1996) was one of the finest sculptors working in Britain during the twentieth century. This book is the first in-depth study of this compelling artist who was responsible for the magisterial statue of Sir Winston Churchill, unveiled in November 1973, which stands in Parliament Square in London. It incorporates a wealth of new research and never before published imagery of the artist’s fascinating and wide-ranging output, including his numerous major public works such as a haunting figure of controversial painter Augustus John in Fordingbridge, Hampshire (1967), doomed World War I poet Rupert Brooke (Rugby, 1988) and memorials to two British military titans of the Second World War situated in Whitehall: Field Marshal Sir William ‘Bill’ Slim (unveiled in 1990) – architect of victory in the gruelling Burma campaign – and Field Marshal Sir Alan Brooke (unveiled in 1993), the master strategist who prevented many of Churchill’s more unrealistic schemes from being implemented.

The book also provides the first detailed examination of Roberts-Jones’s standing as one of Britain’s greatest portrait sculptors for whom an array of impressive personalities sat ranging from musicians such as Yehudi Menuhin, actors (Hugh Griffiths), writers (Saunders Lewis), politicians (Speaker of the House of Commons, George Thomas) and opera singers (Sir Geraint Evans). Finally it explores his significant achievement as a sculptor of wild animals and his lifelong fascination with the depiction of the blind and visually impaired.

This book deals with the ‘muhaqqaq’ tradition.

John Salt’s exquisite and intriguing evocations of abandoned cars and dilapidated trailers, often depicted in a rural setting, expand our definition of landscape and place him among the foremost realist painters of his generation.

Barbara Loftus is the daughter of a GermanJewish refugee and an Anglo-Irish Communist.

She grew up in London and studied art in the 1960s. Since 1970 she has exhibited widely and has taught at a number of art colleges in London and the South of England. She lives in Brighton and is married to the antiquarian bookseller, David Plumtree.

SIGISMUND’S WATCH

SIGISMUND’S WATCH

This cycle of artworks takes its subtitle from the writings of the cultural critic Siegfried Kracauer. The painter Barbara Loftus reflects on the convergence of public and private life in this study of transgenerational memory. By means of her paintings, bookworks and archival material she focuses on a day in the life of her mother Hildegard. Sigismund’s Watch came into being in response to Hildegard’s recollections from early childhood of the impact of the hyperinflation in Weimar Germany, which was to change her perception of the adult world. With the sudden breaking of her long-held silence in 1995 a door was unlocked into the past of a ruined Europe, revealing to her daughter, Barbara, the traumatic invasion of family life by cataclysmic political events. This account proved to be but a single page in Hildegard’s story, which her daughter has been exhuming through her work since 1995. These works reflect on the emotional milestones of a life lived and how these experiences are transmitted to the next generation.

Barbara Loftus’s figurative paintings and works in other media are known for their exploration of the interface between personal memory and historical events. In her cycle of artworks, Sigismund’sWatch, she reflects on the convergence of public and private life in a study of transgenerational memory.

This book documents a disappearing artistic and cultural tradition with over three hundred photographs showing individual pieces, rare images of women wearing their jewelry with traditional dress, and the various regions in Yemen where the author did her field research.

Thirty years on, the sixties speak to us in celebration of youth, optimism, protest, and an explosion of art, music, and popular culture. This book is an ambitious Anglo-French collaboration in which, for the first time, photographs and essays from both sides of the Channel are integrated to assess and make vivid the phenomenon of The Sixties.

M I LOS SOBA Ï C

Edward Lucie-Smith is an internationally known art critic and historian, as well as a poet, anthologist and photographer. He has published more than a hundred books, including more than sixty titles on art, chiefly about contemporary work. A number of his art books, among them Movements in Art since 1945, Visual Arts of the Twentieth Century, A Dictionary of Art Terms and Art Today are used as standard texts throughout the world. In Britain he was for many years a well-known broadcaster, appearing regularly on the BBC arts discussion programme The Critics and its successor Critics’ Forum. He has also written for many leading British newspapers and periodicals.

Milos Sobaïc’s work is a torrential outpouring of images in a wide variety of forms – paintings, sculptures, installations, and works that combine both painting and sculpture. These have gained him recognition as the leading Serbian artist of his generation. Like many artists who come from the Balkans, he is a complete cosmopolitan. He has spent a long time living and working in Paris, his residence there the famous Bateau-Lavoir, once inhabited by Picasso, amongst other artists. He also

teaches in China, at the Luxun Academy of Arts in Shenyang, and so is in close touch with the aesthetic revolution now taking place in Chinese art. Yet he has always been careful to maintain his roots in Serbia and Montenegro – his work has the epic sweep, as well as the passion and darkness, associated with traditional Balkan folktales.

By its very nature, Sobaïc’s work is difficult to classify.

It has links to Francis Bacon, to the classical surrealism of Salvador Dalí, and to the romanticism of Gericault.

It is constantly preoccupied, as indeed these artists were, with the bond between the sublime and the abject, and with the tragic nature of the human condition. Above all, however, it represents the world in flux, and it is no accident that one of the images he continues to revisit is that of a swimmer cleaving through water.

Cover painting: The Red Vineyard, Montmajour (F495) November 1888. Pushkin Museum, Moscow This painting was the first Van Gogh sold outside Holland, to a collector in Brussels (Anna Boch).

Vincent van Gogh’s tumultuous final years were the climax of his career as a colourist. In France he reached a sustained height of expression and created a prodigious quantity of work, the importance of which is incontestable. In the landscapes, portraits and still lifes from this period the intensity and singularity of vision finds its apotheosis.

Presented here is a comprehensive illustrated catalogue of Van Gogh’s paintings executed between 1886 and 1890 in Paris, Arles, Saint-Rémy and Auvers-sur-Oise.

Each of some 580 works from that time is reproduced in full colour and appears in related scale to its original size. All known provenance is given. For the first time the paintings recorded in early documents like the ‘Andries Bonger Inventory List’ of 1890 and the 1905 Amsterdam Exhibition are fully identified. This book includes a wealth of new information of crucial importance to collectors, dealers, art historians and public institutions, while providing an extraordinary visual record of the most creative and productive period of Van Gogh’s career. It promises to be one of the most significant and enduring contributions to the understanding of this artist.

In the 1860s and 1870s Whistler produced a body of work based on the Thames. Pivotal to his career, this beautiful group of paintings, prints and drawings permits a detailed examination of his approach to composition, subject and technique. The earliest paintings, notably Brown and Silver: Old Battersea Bridge, produced soon after his arrival in London, mark one of his most profound and successful challenges to the art establishment of the time.

As well as allowing a detailed study of the evolution of an artist, these works show the Thames under contrasting climatic conditions, from Chelsea in Ice to the lovely Nocturne: Grey and Gold – Westminster Bridge, which depicts the deep blue of warm summer evenings. They bring to life Victorian London: the workers and women who frequented the Thames-side wharves and pubs, the shipping that thronged the Pool, the barges that navigated the perilous passage under the bridges, and the steamboats and ferries crowded with daytrippers.

Margaret F. MacDonald

The Nocturnes of the 1870s mark an important breakthrough in Whistler’s art: his shift from French Realism to sophisticated harmony, based on mood and atmosphere, but still rooted in a literal rendering of the Thames waterside. The famous Blue and Gold – Old Battersea Bridge is the culmination of his bridge paintings; here the influence of Japanese prints reached its fullest form.

Joseph Wright of Derby Bath and Beyond Amina Wright

In the 1860s and 1870s Whistler produced a body of work (paintings, prints and drawings) based on the Thames. Pivotal to his career, this beautiful group permits a detailed examination of his approach to composition, subject and technique. The one hundred and sixty illustrations here reproduced reveal his artistic development and allow a detailed study of the evolution of an artist.

Focusing on the last quarter of the nineteenth century, the book features Oscar Wilde as a central, catalytic figure linking London and Paris. Wilde is presented as a multi-faceted artist – not only poet, writer, playwright, but also art critic, journalist and progressive political thinker.

Dorothy Bohm is widely recognized as one of the doyennes of British photography, her career spanning six decades. This book is the first illustrated record of all aspects of her work.

Joseph Wright (1734–1797) arrived in Bath from his native Derby in November 1775. Recently returned from a tour of Italy, he came to the fashionable spa town to re-establish his business as a portrait painter, hoping to fill the vacancy left by Thomas Gainsborough the previous year. This beautifully illustrated book sheds new light on a key moment in this important English artist’s career.
