  • Stephen Poyntz Denning and the Herne Hill Art Set
    The Dulwich Society from http://www.dulwichsociety.com/ Winter 2014 Artist in Residence – Stephen Poyntz Denning and the Herne Hill Art Set by Brian Green Published on Wednesday, 17 December 2014 16:20 It is quite a coincidence that two major movies are being released at the moment, the principle characters of which were members of the Herne Hill art set. However, like the elephant in the room, a central figure - Elhanan Bicknell, has been excised in Mike Leigh’s award winning film Mr Turner. As indeed has the subject of this article, the artist Stephen Poynzt Denning, a prominent member of the Herne Hill art set and friend of the Bicknell family. The early life of Stephen Poyntz Denning is something of a mystery. His father, Thomas Denning was born in Gloucestershire in 1767 and moved to Newington, Southwark where Stephen was born in 1795. There is no information regarding his mother. His middle name, Poyntz had customarily been used by the Denning family. There must have been some tragedy or misfortune early in Denning’s life. It was partially revealed, when, soon after he was elected curator or custodian of the newly opened Dulwich College Picture Gallery he received a group of Royal Academician visitors, led by Joseph Farington and including Sir Thomas Lawrence. The reason for the visit was to inspect the pictures and select some to be copied by students at the Academy. Denning, who may already have been acquainted with Lawrence, got into conversation with them and clearly impressed Farington who wrote in his diary, “Mr Denning is an artist and excels in miniature painting.

Trade, freedom, and the occasional dynastic rule combined to produce great wealth, and perhaps more surprisingly, a love of the arts and Hamburg, Hannover & The Hague the garden. Traveling with us is art historian Olivier Bernier whose lectures at The Metropolitan Museum of Art delight an enthusiastic audience. Mr. Bernier’s memories and experiences of travel to Northern Europe date back to trips with his grandparents, and he has designed this trip to include some of his favorite places. Hamburg, one of the great Hanseatic cities, flourished for centuries and even the destruction of World War II served in the end to rejuvenate this bustling city. Its museums are justly famous; the restoration and conversion of its waterfront are great examples of post-war Renaissance. Hannover has a very different history. Its dynasty built palaces and gardens before it was taken over by the English throne. As a result, this city has interesting architecture and two fascinating museums, as well as a beautifully restored Baroque garden. On our way to The Hague, the Kröller-Müller Museum with its extraordinary collections of Van Gogh and Mondrian will offer the perfect introduction to the almost limitless art treasures of the Netherlands.

  • The Adventurous History of Sabrina Sidney
    CONSTRUCTING THE EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY WOMAN: THE ADVENTUROUS HISTORY OF SABRINA SIDNEY By KATHARINE ILES A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham For the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham April 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The story of Thomas Day’s attempt to educate a young girl according to the theories of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, with the aim of marrying her, has often been referred to as a footnote in Enlightenment history. However, the girl chosen by Day, Sabrina Sidney, has never been placed at the centre of any historical enquiry, nor has the experiment been explored in any depth. This study places Sabrina at its centre to investigate its impact on her and to examine the intellectual and societal debates that informed Thomas Day’s decision to educate a wife. This thesis argues that Sabrina Sidney was in a constant state of construction, which changed depending on a myriad of factors and that constructions of her were fluid and flexible.

  • The Likeness of Lucinda Sarah Bicknell (Née Browne)
    The likeness of Lucinda Sarah Bicknell (née Browne) by Marcus Bicknell, great great grandson of Lucinda Bicknell née Browne I do not believe the portrait by Denning in the National Portrait Gallery (NPG) (Annex 1) called “ probably Lucinda Sarah Bicknell (née Browne) ” (image, right) is Lucinda. It looks neither like the other image we have of her nor does it match the descriptions given of her. The sitter does, however, look like two of Sabrina Bicknell (no relation) by Denning also in the NPG (see page 4). The bust by Baily There are several reasons why the likeness taken from the death mask of Lucinda (1850) attributed to E.H.Baily 1 (image below) is considered a correct likeness of Lucinda Bicknell; the bust has been passed down the family line and is owned by Mark Bicknell, another of her great great grandsons; and it conforms to the written descriptions (see below) and the body language expected. Written descriptions “Lucinda was tiny and beautiful, with lovely hands and an elegant neck and shoulders. Talented and absolutely charming, she spoke fluent French, played the piano and the harp” 2. The lady in the Denning portrait (the NPG engraving) is hardly beautiful, she does not have lovely hands and she does not have an elegant neck. Body language According to Edgar Browne, Lucinda’s nephew and a close friend of Lucinda’s son Clarence, was “a notable woman, and managed her household affairs with a skill truly early Victorian. She had that art of organizing which comes from natural capability, and which made 1 Valerie Lester, Phiz – The Man who Drew Dickens Chatto & Windus 2004 pp.

  • Enlightenment Biographies
    Enlightenment Biographies John Anderson (1726–96) A Professor of Natural Philosophy at the University of Glasgow, John Anderson dedicated himself to promoting women’s higher education. Born in Dumbartonshire, the son of devout Presbyterians (both his father and grandfather were ministers), Anderson demon- strated an early and persistent belief that women – contra popular theories of the period – were ‘rational beings’ and deserved every opportunity to ‘cultivate’ their understanding. This commitment culminated in a deathbed wish to found a coeducational technical university. In a detailed will, Anderson outlined a plan whereby ‘the ladies of Glasgow’ might be provided with ‘such a stock of general knowledge’ as to make them the ‘most cultivated in all of Europe’. His school would offer a ‘Ladies Course’ in Natural Philosophy where women, ‘for a small fee,’ would be introduced to a range of scientific subjects. Although Anderson did not live to see his dream realized, the school, aptly named Anderson’s Institution, was successfully established in 1796. As Anderson had requested, the Institution offered women courses in astronomy, electricity, magnetism, hydrostatics, hydraulics and optics. Thomas Garnett, one of the school’s early instructors, praised Anderson for his recognition that providing women with a better education was a neces- sary part of the ‘civilizing’ process. As Garnett wrote in his 1800 Observations on a Tour through the Highlands, ‘The ladies of this city are undoubtedly much indebted to the founder [Anderson], as being

Dear Readers, Dear Visitors following in the footsteps of the Guelphs, For centuries, the history of the former Kingdom of Hanover and of the present-day State of Lower Saxony was closely intertwined with the story of the Electors and Kings of Hanover. When George Louis, Elector of Hanover, ascended the British throne as King George I in 1714, this marked the beginning of the 123-year reign of the House of Guelph over Great Britain, where it was known as the House of Hanover. As a result, the Guelphs, the oldest royal dynasty in Europe, left a decisive imprint on European, American and world history. Numerous testimonies to the days when the region was ruled by the House of Guelph are still to be found in and around Hanover today.

    3D ACQUISITION, MODELLING AND VISUALIZATION OF NORTH GERMAN CASTLES BY DIGITAL ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAMMETRY Th. Kersten, C. Acevedo Pardo, M. Lindstaedt Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, Department of Geomatics, Hebebrandstrasse 1, 22297 Hamburg, Germany [t.kersten, c.acevedo, m.lindstaedt]@rzcn.haw-hamburg.de ISPRS WG V/2 Scene Modelling and Virtual Reality KEY WORDS: Architecture, CAD, Cultural Heritage, Digital, Modelling, Photogrammetry, Virtual Reality, Visualization ABSTRACT: In order to create virtual realities, three-dimensional scenes must be generated digitally. Frequently such scenes are freely invented in computer games and have little or nothing to do with reality. The Department of Geomatics of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences (HAW Hamburg) records historical buildings and castles for detailed virtual reality applications, which can be used in visualizations, simulation and planning for tourism, navigation, facility management, architecture, cultural heritage and city planning. A condition of such modelling and visualization is a complete 3D acquisition of the objects, e.g. with geodetic measuring techniques, terrestrial laser scanners or with digital architectural photogrammetry. Three north German castles in Celle (Lower Saxony), Ahrensburg and Glücksburg (both in Schleswig-Holstein) were recorded photogrammetrically using a digital SLR Camera (Fujifilm FinePix S1 Pro) and later modelled and visualized.
