  • Laing Art Gallery First Floor Display January 2019 Paintings from the Collection – Label Texts in Display Order
    Laing Art Gallery first floor display January 2019 Paintings from the collection – Label texts in display order James Orrock (1829-1913) The Solway, Criffel in the distance 1896 Oil on canvas Bequest from John Lamb 1909 Criffel, an imposing hill in south-west Scotland, rises in the distance of this view of the wide sands of the Solway Firth at low tide. James Orrock was originally from Edinburgh, and had returned to Scotland in search of wild landscape to paint. Orrock greatly admired the breezy landscape views of David Cox. Orrock was originally a dentist, first in Edinburgh and then Nottingham. He became an artist after moving to London in around 1866, and was an important collector of British art. Benjamin Williams Leader (1831-1923) Sand dunes on the Conwy, about 1868 Oil on canvas Given by Susan Cowell 2013 The sea at Conwy Bay in North Wales provides the backdrop to this study of sand dunes. It’s a slightly unusual subject for Benjamin Leader, who focused on landscapes of meadows, hills and streams. He was particularly fond of sketching in Wales, and his naturalistic style was very popular during his lifetime. As a boy, he had gone on sketching trips with his father, an amateur artist who knew and admired John Constable. Anne Redpath (1895-1965) The Valley of San Martino di Lota about 1955 Oil on canvas Purchased 1961 San Martino di Lota is on the French island of Corsica, where Scottish artist Anne Redpath spent some time in 1955. She used thick paint and bold brushstrokes to describe this windswept landscape, also using a palette knife for the rough white stones in front of the house.

  • Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies
    Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies BY BABETTE M. LEVY Preface NE of the pleasant by-products of doing research O work is the realization of how generously help has been given when it was needed. The author owes much to many people who proved their interest in this attempt to see America's past a little more clearly. The Institute of Early American History and Culture gave two grants that enabled me to devote a sabbatical leave and a summer to direct searching of colony and church records. Librarians and archivists have been cooperative beyond the call of regular duty. Not a few scholars have read the study in whole or part to give me the benefit of their knowledge and judgment. I must mention among them Professor Josephine W, Bennett of the Hunter College English Department; Miss Madge McLain, formerly of the Hunter College Classics Department; the late Dr. William W. Rockwell, Librarian Emeritus of Union Theological Seminary, whose vast scholarship and his willingness to share it will remain with all who knew him as long as they have memories; Professor Matthew Spinka of the Hartford Theological Sem- inary; and my mother, who did not allow illness to keep her from listening attentively and critically as I read to her chapter after chapter.

From Meidel's quite tempestuous career we receive insights into the issues Friends faced in Augustan England in adapting to life in a country whose inter-church relations were largely governed by the 1689 Toleration Act, and its insistence that recipients of toleration were to respect the rights of other religionists.

  • 08 Tate Modern in the Studio
    1 Antony Gormley (b. 1950), Untitled (for Francis), 1985 (Room 1), lead, plaster, polyester resin and fibreglass 1900 × 1170 × 290cm Giovanni Bellini, St Francis in Ecstasy, 1479-85 • Finding Meaning. In this room we have two apparently contrasting works. Over there an abstract work by Eva Hesse and here a human figure by Antony Gormley. They represent contrasting approaches that are explored in the following rooms. Gormley is best known for The Angel of the North (see Visual Aids) an enormous sculpture on a hill near Newcastle. • Construction. This work is called Untitled (for Francis) and was made in 1985. Like many of his other works it was made directly from his own body. He was wrapped in clingfilm by his wife, who is also an artist, and then covered in two layers of plaster. When it had dried the cast was cut from his body, reassembled and then covered in fibreglass and resin. Twenty-four sheets of lead were then hammered over the figure and soldered together. If you look closely you will see that the figure has been pierced in the breast, hands and feet by small holes cut in the lead. • St. Francis. The attitude of the eyeless figure, standing with head tilted back, feet apart and arms extended to display the palms of its hands, resembles that of a Christian saint receiving the stigmata. Stigmata are the five marks left on Christ’s 2 body by the Crucifixion although one of the wounds here is in the breast, rather than, as tradition dictates, in the side.

  • Pennsylvania Magazine of HISTORY and BIOGRAPHY
    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY The First "Purchasers of Pennsylvania 1681-1700 ENNSYLVANIA, like West New Jersey, was a Quaker under- taking and had the wholehearted support of the Quaker leaders. PWithout the backing of this sect as a whole, William Penn would have been only another on a long list of proprietor-adventurers in the New World. As it turned out, when he launched his campaign for purchasers and settlers in the early summer of 1681, he found a response to his idea of a "Holy Experiment" that has no parallel in the story of American colonization. The vigor of the reception given Penn's scheme is to be attributed to the concern of the Quakers with existing conditions in Great Britain and Ireland.1 It is true that the persecutions of nonconform- ists under Charles II did not compare in intensity and harshness with those of earlier periods, that the persecutions were nowhere as vindictive or cruel or as near the extermination point as some thought, and that they were intermittent in the sense that all penal legislation was never enforced everywhere at one time nor anywhere continuously through the reign. And yet, as thinking Quakers re- flected upon the course of the persecution since 1660, as they wit- 1 William C.
