  • Empire, Barbarism, and Civilisation: James Cook, William Hodges, and the Return to the Pacific'
    H-Albion Teltscher on Guest, 'Empire, Barbarism, and Civilisation: James Cook, William Hodges, and the Return to the Pacific' Review published on Wednesday, February 18, 2009 Harriet Guest. Empire, Barbarism, and Civilisation: James Cook, William Hodges, and the Return to the Pacific. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2007. Plates. xx + 249 pp. $99.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-521-88194-4. Reviewed by Kate Teltscher (Roehampton University) Published on H-Albion (February, 2009) Commissioned by David S. Karr The Knights of Otaheite In his memoirs of James Cook’s second circumnavigation of 1772-75, the midshipman John Elliott recalled the time that he spent in the South Seas. So impressed were Elliott and his fellow shipmates by the tattoos of the warriors of Tahiti that they determined to adopt the local custom. Dubbing themselves the "Knights of Otaheite," the messmates had a commemorative star tattooed on the left breast. Grafting a Tahitian practice onto a chivalric model, the sailors fashioned a distinctive identity for themselves. The act of exotic self-ennoblement at once suggests parallels between European and Tahitian cultures and parodies the domestic system of honors. Such subversive moments are at the heart of the British encounter with the South Pacific, Harriet Guest argues in her splendid new book,Empire, Barbarism, and Civilisation. Cultural encounter, Guest maintains, tends to erode distinctions between the domestic and exotic, to unsettle fixed notions of national and cultural identity. Taking Cook’s second voyage as the frame of her study, Guest offers a series of fascinating and carefully nuanced readings of textual and visual representations of the South Pacific.

  • Constable, Gainsborough, Turner and the Making of Landscape
    CONSTABLE, GAINSBOROUGH, TURNER AND THE MAKING OF LANDSCAPE THE JOHN MADEJSKI FINE ROOMS 8 December 2012 – 17 February 2013 This December an exhibition of works by the three towering figures of English landscape painting, John Constable RA, Thomas Gainsborough RA and JMW Turner RA and their contemporaries, will open in the John Madejski Fine Rooms and the Weston Rooms. Constable, Gainsborough, Turner and the Making of Landscape will explore the development of the British School of Landscape Painting through the display of 120 works of art, comprising paintings, prints, books and archival material. Since the foundation of the Royal Academy of Arts in 1768, its Members included artists who were committed to landscape painting. The exhibition draws on the Royal Academy’s Collection to underpin the shift in landscape painting during the 18 th and 19 th centuries. From Founder Member Thomas Gainsborough and his contemporaries Richard Wilson and Paul Sandby, to JMW Turner and John Constable, these landscape painters addressed the changing meaning of ‘truth to nature’ and the discourses surrounding the Beautiful, the Sublime and the Picturesque. The changing style is represented by the generalised view of Gainsborough’s works and the emotionally charged and sublime landscapes by JMW Turner to Constable’s romantic scenes infused with sentiment. Highlights include Gainsborough’s Romantic Landscape (c.1783), and a recently acquired drawing that was last seen in public in 1950. Constable’s two great landscapes of the 1820s, The Leaping Horse (1825) and Boat Passing a Lock (1826) will be hung alongside Turner’s brooding diploma work, Dolbadern Castle (1800).

  • Newsletter 2
    The Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art NEWSLETTER Yale University January 2014 Issue 38 RICHARD WILSON AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF EUROPEAN LANDSCAPE PAINTING The exhibition Richard Wilson and the Transformation of European Landscape Painting is to be held atthe Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, from 6 March to 1 June 2014, and at the National Museum Wales, Cardiff, from 5 July to 29 October 2014. Long known as the father of British landscape painting, Richard Wilson was, the exhibition contends, at the heart of a profound conceptual shift in European landscape art. With over 160 works, the exhibition and accompanying publication not only situate Wilson’s art at the beginning of a native tradition that leads to John Constable and J.M.W. Turner, but argues that in Rome during the 1750s Wilson was part of an international group of artists who reshaped European art. Rooted in the work of great seventeenth-century masters such as Claude Lorrain but responding to the early stirrings of neoclassicism, Wilson forged a highly original landscape vision that through the example of his own works and the tutelage of his pupils in Rome and later in London was to establish itself throughout northern Europe. In addition to a wide range of oil paintings and works on paper by Wilson, the exhibition includes works by Claude Lorrain, Gaspard Dughet, Anton Raphael Mengs, Pompeo Batoni, Giovanni Paolo Panini, Charles-Joseph Natoire, Claude-Joseph Vernet, Adolf Friedrich Harper, Johan Mandelberg, William Hodges, Thomas Jones, Joseph Wright, John Constable and J.M.W. Turner.

  • Chapter Eleven
    Chapter eleven he greater opportunities for patronage and artistic fame that London could offer lured many Irish artists to seek their fortune. Among landscape painters, George Barret was a founding Tmember of the Royal Academy; Robert Carver pursued a successful career painting scenery for the London theatres and was elected President of the Society of Artists while, even closer to home, Roberts’s master George Mullins relocated to London in 1770, a year after his pupil had set up on his own in Dublin – there may even have been some connection between the two events. The attrac- tions of London for a young Irish artist were manifold. The city offered potential access to ever more elevated circles of patronage and the chance to study the great collections of old masters. Even more fundamental was the febrile artistic atmosphere that the creation of the Royal Academy had engen- dered; it was an exciting time to be a young ambitious artist in London. By contrast, on his arrival in Dublin in 1781, the architect James Gandon was dismissive of the local job prospects: ‘The polite arts, or their professors, can obtain little notice and less encouragement amidst such conflicting selfish- ness’, a situation which had led ‘many of the highly gifted natives...[to] seek for personal encourage- ment and celebrity in England’.1 Balancing this, however, Roberts may have judged the market for landscape painting in London to be adequately supplied. In 1769, Thomas Jones, himself at an early stage at his career, surveyed the scene: ‘There was Lambert, & Wilson, & Zuccarelli, & Gainsborough, & Barret, & Richards, & Marlow in full possession of landscape business’.2 Jones concluded that ‘to push through such a phalanx required great talents, great exertions, and above all great interest’.3 As well as the number of established practitioners in the field there was also the question of demand.

FASHION AND IDENTITY IN GEORGIAN BRITAIN: THE GRAND TOUR PORTRAITS OF POMPEO BATONI by Matthew M. L. Rogan A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Art History at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee May 2015 ABSTRACT FASHION AND IDENTITY IN GEORGIAN BRITAIN: THE GRAND TOUR PORTRAITS OF POMPEO BATONI by Matthew M. L. Rogan The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2015 Under the Supervision of Professor Tanya Tiffany Portrait artist to popes, royalty, and nobility, Pompeo Batoni was hailed as the premier portrait painter in Rome during his career in the mid to late eighteenth century. Batoni’s reputation as the de rigueur portraitist amongst wealthy British Grand Tourists was solidified by the late 1750s, and he dominated this market until his death in 1787. This thesis will examine the different types of fashion displayed in Batoni’s Grand Tour portraits, and argue that many of the Georgian men depicted paid great attention to their dress and how it augmented their self-fashioned identities.

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.

  • Letters from a Young Painter Abroad: James Russel in Rome, 1740-63
    LETTERS FROM A YOUNG PAINTER ABROAD: JAMES RUSSEL IN ROME, 1740-63 by JASON M. KELLY INTRODUCTION AMES RUSSEL was an English artist and antiquary who lived in Rome between 1740 and 1763. At one time he was among the foremost ciceroni in Italy. His patrons included Richard Mead Jand Edward Holdsworth. Andrew Lumisden, the Secretary to the Young Pretender, wrote that Russel was his 'ingenious friend' .1 Despite his centrality to the British Grand Tour community of the mid-eighteenth century, scholars have virtually ignored him. Instead, they favour his fellow artists, such as Robert Adam and William Chambers, and other antiquaries, such as Thomas Jenkins, James Byres and Gavin Hamilton.2 Nevertheless, Russel's career gives insight into the British community in Italy at the dawn of the golden age of the Grand Tour. His struggles as an artist reveal the conditions in which the young tyros laboured. His rise to prominence broadens what we know about both the British and Italian artistic communities in eighteenth-century Rome. And his network of patrons reveals some of the familial and political connections that were neces­ sary for social success in eighteenth-century Britain. In fact, the experience ofJames Russel reveals the importance of seeing Grand Tourist and expatriate communities as extensions of domestic social networks. Like eighteenth-century sailors who went to sea, these travellers lived in a world apart that was nevertheless intimately connected to life at home.3 While many accounts of the Grand Tour mention Russel in passing, only Frank Salmon and Sir Brinsley Ford have examined his work in any detail.4 Part of this is due to the fact that his artistic output was relatively small.
