  • Netherlands / ART the 10 Most Important Old Masters in Dutch
    Netherlands / ART The 10 Most Important Old Masters in Dutch Painting by Samuel Spencer, CultureTrip.com https://theculturetrip.com/europe/the-netherlands/articles/the-10-most-important-old-masters- in-dutch-painting/ From stunning originals like Hieronymus Bosch through to the Dutch Golden Age of the 1650s, The Netherlands produced countless masterpieces across every category of painting. Most are familiar with towering figures like Rembrandt or Vermeer, but there is more to an art movement than two figures. From an internationally successful woman to Dürer’s great Dutch rival, the country has so much to offer art fans. Explore Holland with our guide to its best Old Masters. Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669) Perhaps the greatest and most famous portrait painter of all time, Rembrandt van Rijn was a master of observation, chiaroscuro and, perhaps most importantly, brutal honesty, as seen in his most famous works, the self-portraits. Critics and scholars disagree over how many he undertook, but whatever the actual number, it is a staggering collection including approximately 45 paintings, 30 etchings and seven drawings. These depict the ravages of time on the artist’s face without any sense of vanity, and are heartbreaking if seen in succession. His Biblical scenes and etchings are also superb, but it is those portraits that are his legacy. Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) Virtually ignored in his own time, Vermeer is now truly considered an Old Master. Like many from the Golden Age of Dutch Painting, Vermeer’s fascination was light, and the faithful and beautiful reproduction of it on canvas. This can best be seen on his most famous work Girl With a Pearl Earring, in which the interplay of light upon the various fabrics and the wonderful reflection shining on that pearl earring make it one of the masterpieces of western art.

  • Frans Hals — Press Release
    XT H E WAL LACE COLLECTION Frans Hals: The Male Portrait 22 September 2021 - 30 January 2022 #TheMalePortrait Frans Hals (c.1582/3–1666) is one of the greatest masters of the Dutch Golden Age, praised by his contemporaries for his capacity to paint lifelike portraits that seem ‘to live and breathe’. In autumn 2021, The Wallace Collection will celebrate Hals’s most famous and beloved, yet still enigmatic, painting The Laughing Cavalier (1624). The historic purchase of The Laughing Cavalier in 1865 by the 4th Marquess of Hertford (1800– 1870), the Wallace Collection’s principal founder, was instrumental in the revival of Frans Hals during the 19th century. Prior to this, Hals had been lost to obscurity. At a sale in Paris, Lord Hertford sensationally outbid Baron James de Rothschild (1792–1868) paying the astronomical sum of 51,000 francs for the picture (more than six times the estimate). The publicity around the sale led to the immediate fame of the painting and of Hals, causing prices of his works to soar. This iconic image has never been seen together with other works by the artist and will form the centrepiece of Frans Hals: The Male Portrait - the first ever show to focus solely on Hals’s portraits of men posing on their own – placing The Laughing Cavalier within the broader context of Hals’s depictions of male sitters. The exhibition will bring together over a dozen of the artist’s best male portraits from collections across the UK, Europe, and North America, making this the first major international loan exhibition at the Wallace Collection.

  • Frans Hals: Verdonck Michael Hill 1 / 2 April 2015
    Art Appreciation Lecture Series 2015 Meet the Masters: Highlights from the Scottish National Gallery Frans Hals: Verdonck Michael Hill 1 / 2 April 2015 Lecture summary: Frans Hals made a career portraying men and women of the middle and upper classes. Verdonck, however, is no bourgeois man, but a dolt destined for the poorhouse. We know this because of a contemporary print made after Hals’s painting, and because of the way Hals observed genre conventions of low subjects. That Hals nevertheless invested life in such an abject man – and in others like him – is the one of the wonders of art history. Slide list: 1. Frans Hals, Verdonck, 1627, Nat Gall of Scotland 2.

  • September 2020
    https://u3asites.org.uk/collingham NEWSLETTER - September 2020 Welcome to the September Newsletter These unusual times have enabled us to experience the use of a variety of media that previ- ously we may not have chosen to use. For example, as you know our AGM will take place on Zoom on Wednesday 23rd September at 2pm. You have already received the papers for the AGM either by email or by post. If you are unable to join us on Zoom, we would still like to receive your votes. So please take the opportunity to vote on the decisions we will be making. You can do this by returning your completed voting form to Mary Hughes, the Business Secretary at: [email protected] Earlier this month I attended an on-line tutorial offered by the Third Age Trust and led by mem- bers. It was about running AGMs on-line. I found this a positive experience but this may have been because I already had some experience of using Zoom. One hundred and twenty-two participants attended the tutorial. They were from U3As across the UK who, like us, will be run- ning their AGMs on-line. I hope ours will go as smoothly as possible but I think we just have to be prepared for the unexpected. Thank you to everyone who submits material for the Newsletter. I have had many positive com- ments about how valuable and beneficial the Newsletter has been to individual members over the last few months. Best wishes, Jannet Wright, Chair, Executive Committee Can you help? Dear Members, As you may be aware, for the last 4 or 5 years our U3A has been sponsoring and caring for the 2 planters at either end of the village; 1 at the entry of the Medical Centre car park and the other by the old village memorial cross opposite the One Stop shop.

  • CLEAR II Baroque and Rococo Visual Arts Packet by Jeremy Hixson 1. a Lifesize Peacock Dominates One Of
    CLEAR II Baroque and Rococo Visual Arts Packet by Jeremy Hixson 1. A life­size peacock dominates one of these objects, which also features a dragonfly sitting on a mushroom and an owl in a cage and which was designed by James Cox. One style of these objects is the "tete de poupee", which are named for their appearance in profile and which were decorated with its creator's namesake Boulle marquetry of inlaid brass or pewter arabesques in a turtle­shell veneer. Jean­Jacques and Philippe Caffieri did the bronze work on one of these objects housed in Versailles and designed by Claude­Simeon Passemant; that piece is topped by a transparent globus which displays a rotating model of heavenly bodies. A painting of the "Flight into Egypt" by Francesco Trevisani appears on the front of a "nocturnal" example of these objects, which was designed by Pier Tommaso Campani for Pope Alexander VII and which uses a lamp in the back to shine through carved numbers in a rotating dial. For 10 points, identify these time­keeping instruments, often used as decorative objects. ANSWER: Clock [accept "Timepieces" until "time" is said; accept "Automata" before "tete" is said] ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. Barend Oortkras designed the second clock mechanism and Nicolaus Derck poorly cast the second set of 38 bells, including the 7,000 pound Quint Bell, for this cathedral's carillon after the originals were destroyed in a fire in 1756. Harman van Boles designed this cathedral's large gilt spire, which dominates the skyline of the city in which this cathedral is located and which is topped by the figure of an angel holding a cross, which serves as a weathervane.

  • Wallace Collection Announces 2021 Exhibitions on Rubens and Frans Hals
    WALLACE COLLECTION ANNOUNCES 2021 EXHIBITIONS ON RUBENS AND FRANS HALS Peter Paul Rubens, The Rainbow Landscape, c. 1636 and Frans Hals, The Laughing Cavalier, 1624 © Trustees of The Wallace Collection, London. Following the extraordinary circumstances of 2020, the Wallace Collection is delighted to announce its revised 2021 exhibitions programme, which centres on two of the Wallace Collection’s most revered paintings from the permanent collection, and masterpieces of Flemish and Dutch art - Peter Paul Rubens’s Rainbow Landscape and Frans Hals’s Laughing Cavalier. As works of exceptional international renown, these two works will, for the first time, both be seen in the broader context of their authors’ oeuvre alongside pendant and similar works. Dr Xavier Bray, Director of the Wallace Collection, said: "It's absolutely thrilling for me that for the first time ever, two of the finest jewels of our collection will each be shown next to other works by their artists, giving them a completely new context. It shines a much-deserved light on our rich holdings of Dutch and Flemish painting, which includes works by Van Dyck, Rembrandt and Willem Van de Velde, as well as Rubens and Frans Hals. After the difficult events of 2020, we hope that these wonderful exhibitions for 2021 bring hope, inspiration, solace and joy to all our audiences.” Rubens: Reuniting the Great Landscapes 21 April - 15 August 2021 Admission Charge #ReunitingRubens In partnership with VISITFLANDERS For the first time in over two hundred years, Peter Paul Rubens’s (1577-1640) two great masterpieces of landscape painting, The Rainbow Landscape (The Wallace Collection) and A View of Het Steen in the Early Morning (The National Gallery) will be reunited as part of an exhibition at the Wallace Collection.

He is notable for his loose painterly brushwork, and helped introduce this lively style of painting into Dutch art. Hals was also instrumental in the evolution of 17th century group portraiture. Hals was born in 1580 or 1581, in Antwerp. Like many, Hals' family fled during the Fall of Antwerp (1584-1585) from the Spanish Netherlands to Haarlem, where he lived for the remainder of his life.
