John Boydell's Shakespeare Gallery and the Promotion of a National Aesthetic

It explores a number of trajectories embarked upon by Boydell and his artists in their collective attempt to promote an English aesthetic. It broadly argues that the Shakespeare Gallery offered an antidote to a variety of perceived problems which had emerged at the Royal Academy over the previous twenty years, defining itself against Academic theory and practice. Identifying and examining the cluster of spatial, ideological and aesthetic concerns which characterised the Shakespeare Gallery, my research suggests that the Gallery promoted a vision for a national art form which corresponded to contemporary senses of English cultural and political identity, and takes issue with current art-historical perceptions about the 'failure' of Boydell's scheme. The introduction maps out some of the existing scholarship in this area and exposes the gaps which art historians have previously left in our understanding of the Shakespeare Gallery. -

Chapter 30: the Berners Estate: Berners and Newman Streets
DRAFT CHAPTER 30 The Berners Estate: Berners and Newman Streets This chapter gives an account of the former Berners estate, a freehold of some twenty-five acres, and the two high-class streets which constituted its heartland, Berners and Newman Streets. Running north from a lucrative Oxford Street frontage, these streets are a visual disappointment today, retaining little that is more than 130 years old. But their history is a rich one, and in their heyday they boasted excellent houses, built chiefly in the 1760s. The limits of the main part of the estate were Oxford Street on the south, Wells Street on the west and Riding House Street on the north, the eastern boundary running between Newman Street and Rathbone Place. The old Middlesex Hospital site was alienated from it before development had advanced far. To the north, a narrow strip along the whole west side of Cleveland Street also formed part of the estate, representing an old line of access to the original fields or closes. The Berners–Allsopp Estate today owns only a scatter of properties in Berners and Newman Streets. The following pages comprise an overall history of the Berners estate and of Berners and Newman Streets, divided into two chronological sections. Those streets which fronted only partly on the estate – Cleveland, Eastcastle, Mortimer, Riding House and Wells Streets, and Nassau Street, are discussed in other chapters. The Oxford Street frontage of the estate and its shops will be covered in a future volume of the Survey. Survey of London © Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London Website: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/architecture/research/survey-london 1 DRAFT The estate up to 1890 In late medieval times the land which became the Berners estate was called Newlands. -
