    sargent, monet... and manet Elaine Kilmurray In December 2006, I went to Paris to look at a cache of over a thousand letters written to Claude Monet by fellow artists (Caillebotte, Mary Cassatt, Cézanne, Manet, Pissarro, Renoir, Rodin, Sisley), writers (Octave Mirbeau, Gustave Geffroy) and his principal dealer (Paul Durand-Ruel) that had remained in the collection of Monet’s descendents and were about to be auctioned. They had passed through generations of the Monet family and many were unreleased and/or unpublished. Those of us working on the John Singer Sargent catalogue raisonné project were particularly interested in seventeen letters from Sargent to Monet. There has always been a sense of the provisional in accounts of the relationship between the two artists, a scarcity of fixed points and an absence of detail. We wanted to see how illuminating these letters were and how helpful they might be in filling lacunae and deepening our understanding. The timing was fortuitous: we were engaged on research for Volume V of the catalogue raisonné, in which we would catalogue Sargent’s most ‘Impressionist’ paintings. At the Artcurial auction house, I spoke to Thierry Bodin, who had done initial transcriptions of all the letters for the sale catalogue to a daunting deadline. The members of the catalogue raisonné team have struggled with Sargent’s writing (especially when in French, Italian or Spanish) for decades, and it was gratifying to hear from M. Bodin that, while Octave Mirbeau’s tight, closely worked hand had given him the most trouble, Sargent’s had come a close second.

  • Rose Standish Nichols and the Cornish Art Colony
    Life at Mastlands: Rose Standish Nichols and the Cornish Art Colony Maggie Dimock 2014 Julie Linsdell and Georgia Linsdell Enders Research Intern Introduction This paper summarizes research conducted in the summer of 2014 in pursuit of information relating to the Nichols family’s life at Mastlands, their country home in Cornish, New Hampshire. This project was conceived with the aim of establishing a clearer picture of Rose Standish Nichols’s attachment to the Cornish Art Colony and providing insight into Rose’s development as a garden architect, designer, writer, and authority on garden design. The primary sources consulted consisted predominantly of correspondence, diaries, and other personal ephemera in several archival collections in Boston and New Hampshire, including the Nichols Family Papers at the Nichols House Museum, the Rose Standish Nichols Papers at the Houghton Library at Harvard University, the Papers of the Nichols-Shurtleff Family at the Schlesinger Library at the Radcliffe Institute, and the Papers of Augustus Saint Gaudens, the Papers of Maxfield Parrish, and collections relating to several other Cornish Colony artists at the Rauner Special Collections Library at Dartmouth College. After examining large quantities of letters and diaries, a complex portrait of Rose Nichols’s development emerges. These first-hand accounts reveal a woman who, at an early age, was intensely drawn to the artistic society of the Cornish Colony and modeled herself as one of its artists. Benefitting from the influence of her famous uncle Augustus Saint Gaudens, Rose was given opportunities to study and mingle with some of the leading artistic and architectural luminaries of her day in Cornish, Boston, New York, and Europe.

  • Treaties and Congressional-Executive Or Presidential Agreements: Interchangeable Instruments of National Policy: Ii
    TREATIES AND CONGRESSIONAL-EXECUTIVE OR PRESIDENTIAL AGREEMENTS: INTERCHANGEABLE INSTRUMENTS OF NATIONAL POLICY: II MYRES S. McDOUGALt AND ASHER LANSt VII. THE REQUIREMENTS OF A DEMOCRATIC FOREIGN POLIcy FOR THE WHOLE NATION The existence under our Constitution of the variety of interchange- able techniques, described in the previous Sections of this article,' for perfecting international agreements has obviously served the nation well in the past. It may in the future, 2 if the facts of variety and inter- changeability are fully recognized and acted upon by the public and by all branches of the Government, provide a system for the conduct of our foreign relations which is adequate both to cope with the im- peratives of survival and to secure our other national interests in the contemporary world-that is, a system whereby policy is quickly and easily formed by democratic means for the nation as a whole, and whereby the execution of policy is prompt and efficient, without being subjected to the adventitious whims and disintegrating attacks of obstructionist minority control. The flexibility and dispatch which such a system may require are available in the President's powers to make the initial decision as to how any particular agree- ment is to be perfected and to make and perform, on his own responsibility, all agreements needed to meet war and other emergen- cies. Conversely, ample check upon any arbitrary or unwise exercise of executive power, beyond what is imposed by public opinion and the President's unique responsibility to the voters of the whole nation, is insured by the fact that, without the aid of the Congress, the powers of the President, or even of the President and the Senate, to perform important international agreements are in the long run severely limited.

Performing Identities in the art of John Singer Sargent Abstract In the elegant society portraits by John Singer Sargent, body language created social identities. The fallen dress strap and obvious makeup in Madame X, for example, declared her a “professional beauty”; the costume of Charles Stewart proclaimed him a British lord. Critics often conflated appearance and character in Sargent's images, yet Sargent used theatre and masquerade in numerous works to problematize essentialist links between appearance and character that were fundamental to turn-of-the-century class, gender, and racial stereotypes. This dissertation concentrates on the art Sargent produced after Madame X, as he recovered from the scandal it provoked in 1884 and as he established his patron base in England and America. Many of Sargent's later works can be seen as a response to the issues raised by Madame X concerning the relationship between appearance and character. An analysis of theatrical elements in Sargent's paintings elucidates the function of these images in variously maintaining and challenging notions of social identity. Chapter One discusses the critical reception of Sargent's art in the context of a turn-of-the-century culture engaged in classification and performance activities.

  • 1 the Descendants of William Robblee And
    The Descendants of William Robblee and Keturah Baker of Lanesborough, MA Compiled by Cindy Walcott <cwalcott141 at gmail.com> Fall 2018 William Robblee and his wife Keturah Baker apparently started their married life in Dutchess Co., NY. William bought land in Lanesborough, MA in 1768. Presumably, the couple moved there – across the line from New York to Massahusetts – about that time. Their younger children were born there. William died at age 60, when several of his children were still minors. Keturah stayed in Lanesborough for some time. However, the majority of her living children joined the northward migration of Lanesborough families to New Haven, VT by the 1790s. Later, she would join them, and marry the Quaker Stephen Haight. Some of Keturah’s family of origin were also Quaker; perhaps she practiced this religion as well. One of her sons, William (although he may have lived briefly in New Haven) stayed in Lanesborough. He used the spelling Rubblee for his surname. However, those in Vermont adopted the spelling Rublee. Her daughters remained in New Haven. However, her sons soon continued their move northward, settling in Berkshire, VT. Some stayed there; others moved to Quebec, New York, Wisconsin and beyond. William Rubblee’s descendants removed to Ellington, NY where many have remained to this day. Most individuals with the surname Rublee belong to this family. But there is an exception. There is a Rublee family on Wisconsin that is descended from Even Knudson Ruble and his wife Birgit Olsdatter Onsgard, both born in Norway. Even was the son of Khud Evensen Hoyme and Seborg Haagensdatter.

Please make a tax-deductible donation today. This April LALH celebrated the publication of John Nolen, Landscape Architect and City Planner, R. Bruce Stephenson’s biography of one of the twentieth century’s most important landscape practitioners. Later this summer, we will see William E. O’Brien’s Landscapes of Exclusion, the first study of segregated state parks during the Jim Crow era. Both books represent landmark scholarship in the field, and in this issue of VIEW Stephenson and O’Brien bring their perspectives to bear on the history of racism in landscape planning. Themes of social and environmental justice also run through Elizabeth Barlow Rogers’s article on Gary Hilderbrand’s visionary landscape plan for the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Rogers’s interview reveals how Hilderbrand’s landscape ethic was influenced by his experience growing up in the Hudson River valley, when the threat of a Con Edison power plant loomed large. LALH education director Jane Roy Brown writes about the issues involved in the construction of another museum addition, the Mary and Charlie Babcock Wing, designed by Beyer Blinder Belle for Reynolda House Museum of American Art. She discusses the architects’ efforts to minimize the impact of the building on the historic landscape of Reynolda and how an LALH book, A World of Her Own Making, provided guidance in the process.
