  • The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain
    Crossing the Channel: The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain By Catherine Cheney Senior Honors Thesis Department of Art History University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 8, 2016 Approved: 1 Introduction: French Impressionism in England As Impressionism spread throughout Europe in the late nineteenth century, the movement took hold in the British art community and helped to change the fundamental ways in which people viewed and collected art. Impressionism made its debut in London in 1870 when Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Paul Durand-Ruel sought safe haven in London during the Franco- Prussian war. The two artists created works of London landscapes done in the new Impressionist style. Paul Durand-Ruel, a commercial dealer, marketed the Impressionist works of these two artists and of the other Impressionist artists that he brought over from Paris. The movement was officially organized for the First Impressionist Exhibition in 1874 in Paris, but the initial introduction in London laid the groundwork for promoting this new style throughout the international art world. This thesis will explore, first, the cultural transformations of London that allowed for the introduction of Impressionism as a new style in England; second, the now- famous Thames series that Monet created in the 1890s and notable exhibitions held in London during the time; and finally, the impact Impressionism had on private collectors and adding Impressionist works to the national collections. With the exception of Edouard Manet, who met with success at the Salon in Paris over the years and did not exhibit with the Impressionists, the modern artists were not received well.

It was one of the streets that Charles Dickens has written about and named it as ‘the Devil’s acre’. However it has since become the epicentre of the British political establishment, situated as it is, literally a stone’s throw from the Houses of Parliament. Architecturally, the area in which Great Peter Street sits has quintessen- tially been described as ‘the essence of Old Westminster’. This exceptional location is surrounded by Grade II listed houses from the 1700s. The building itself is a homage to Georgian architecture and also it is prevalent in the area.

  • Bond Street Transformation Will Secure the Future of This West End Icon a £10 Million Transformation of Bond Street’S Streetscape Has Officially Been Completed
    Bond Street transformation will secure the future of this West End icon A £10 million transformation of Bond Street’s streetscape has officially been completed • £50 million invested on Bond Street through 10 new brand openings and 7 major store refurbishments • 2017 turnover in Bond reached £1 billion annually, £3 million a day Today marks the official completion of the most ambitious public realm improvement scheme in Bond Street in over 30 years, a major £10 million transformation of the streetscape. The project will significantly enhance the experience for pedestrians, while still allowing traffic on the street. Delivered by Westminster City Council in partnership with New West End Company, GLA, Transport for London and with the support of Bond Street businesses, this scheme completes the first phase of a multi-million investment programme for the wider West End and marks a major moment for the street as a globally competitive luxury destination. Bond Street’s mix of internationally renowned jewellers, fashion powerhouses and critically acclaimed galleries has cemented its position as one of the most sought after destinations for luxury brands looking to locate their global flagships. Since the improvement scheme began in April 2017, Bond Street has seen an unprecedented level of investment, with £50 million invested through 10 new brand openings and 7 major store refurbishments, as brands look to Bond Street as their new home. Some of the highlights of the revitalised Bond Street includes: • A brand new public square outside Ralph Lauren at the Burlington Gardens junction • More space for pedestrians through decluttering • High quality materials and lighting that complements and showcases the iconic brands The completion of the Bond Street public realm project is the first phase in a wider scheme of investment into the West End, including Hanover Square and widespread improvements proposed for the Oxford Street District.

It was the largest Empire in history. If the Empire’s beating heart was London, then The Strand was one of its major arteries. This mile- long street beside the River Thames was home to some of the Empire’s administrative, legal and commercial functions. The days of Empire are long gone but its legacy remains in the landscape. A walk down this modern London street is a fascinating journey through Britain’s imperial history. This walk was created in 2012 by Mike Jackson and Gary Gray, both Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG). It was originally part of a series that explored how our towns and cities have been shaped for many centuries by some of the 206 participating nations in the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
