National Dimensions
ONS NATIONAL DIM NATIONAL DIMENNATIONAL DIMENSIONS NAL DIMENSIONS DIMENSIONS NATIO This report was researched and written by AEA Consulting: Magnus von Wistinghausen Keith Morgan Katharine Housden This report sets out the collaborative work undertaken by the UK’s nationally funded museums, libraries and archives with other organisations across the UK, and assesses their impact on cultural provision across the nation. It focuses on the activities in recent years of members of the National Museum Directors’ Conference (NMDC), and is largely based on discussions with these institutions and selected partner organisations, as well as on a series of discussion days hosted by the NMDC in different regional centres in July 2003. It does not make specific reference to collaborative work between NMDC organisations themselves, and focuses on activities and initiatives that have taken place in the last few years. For the sake of simplicity the term ‘national museum’ is used throughout the report to describe all NMDC member organisations, notwithstanding the fact that these also include libraries and archives. In this report the term ‘national’ is used to denote institutions established by Act of Parliament as custodians of public collections that belong to the nation. It is acknowledged that the NMDC does not include all museums and other collecting institutions which carry the term ‘national’ as part of their name. Specific reference to their activities is not contained in this report. Published in the United Kingdom by the National Museum Directors'

Cemetery Records
RESEARCH GUIDE Cemetery Records Research Guide 5: Cemetery Records CONTENTS Introduction Main cemetery records held at LMA Bunhill Fields (CLC/271) New Bunhill Fields, Islington (B/NBF) The City of London Cemetery, Little Ilford (CLA/052) The City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery (CTHC) Other cemetery records at LMA Indexes and Transcripts in the LMA Library Records held elsewhere Introduction Before the mid-19th century most burials in London took place in churchyards and from the mid-16th century were recorded in parish registers. Some hospitals and other institutions had their own burial grounds. From the time of the Black Death special burial grounds outside the City walls were provided for people who died from the periodic epidemics of plague which afflicted London. Land to the north of the Artillery Ground known as Bunhill Fields was set aside in 1665 as a plague burial ground, but was not used for this purpose. It then became a burial ground for nonconformists. After 1690 many nonconformist meeting houses and chapels were established in London some of which had their own burial grounds. By the late 18th century the London churchyards were becoming overcrowded. New cemeteries were established as private speculations generally offering slightly lower charges for burials than the churchyards. Some of these burial grounds were originally connected to chapels adjoining them, but were subsequently bought by private individuals. By 1835 there were at least fourteen such burial grounds in London including Spa Fields, Clerkenwell, opposite London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) where about 80, 000 people were buried. An enquiry in 1843 discovered that about 40 burials were taking place each day.

The Wallace Collection — Rubens Reuniting the Great Landscapes
XT H E W ALLACE COLLECTION RUBENS: REUNITING THE GREAT LANDSCAPES • Rubens’s two great landscape paintings reunited for the first time in 200 years • First chance to see the National Gallery painting after extensive conservation work • Major collaboration between the National Gallery and the Wallace Collection 3 June - 15 August 2021 #ReunitingRubens In partnership with VISITFLANDERS This year, the Wallace Collection will reunite two great masterpieces of Rubens’s late landscape painting: A View of Het Steen in the Early Morning and The Rainbow Landscape. Thanks to an exceptional loan from the National Gallery, this is the first time in two hundred years that these works, long considered to be companion pieces, will be seen together. This m ajor collaboration between the Wallace Collection and the National Gallery was initiated with the Wallace Collection’s inaugural loan in 2019 of Titian’s Perseus and Andromeda, enabling the National Gallery to complete Titian’s Poesie cycle for the first time in 400 years for their exhibition Titian: Love, Desire, Death. The National Gallery is now making an equally unprecedented reciprocal loan to the Wallace Collection, lending this work for the first time, which will reunite Rubens’s famous and very rare companion pair of landscape paintings for the first time in 200 years. This exhibition is also the first opportunity for audiences to see the National Gallery painting newly cleaned and conserved, as throughout 2020 it has been the focus of a major conservation project specifically in preparation for this reunion. The pendant pair can be admired in new historically appropriate, matching frames, also created especially for this exhibition.

Never-Before-Seen Documents Reveal IWM's Plan for Evacuating Its Art
Never-before-seen documents reveal IWM’s plan for evacuating its art collection during the Second World War Never-before-seen documents from Imperial War Museums’ (IWM) collections will be displayed as part of a new exhibition at IWM London, uncovering how cultural treasures in British museums and galleries were evacuated and protected during the Second World War. The documents, which include a typed notice issued to IWM staff in 1939, titled ‘Procedure in the event of war,’ and part of a collection priority list dated 1938, are among 15 documents, paintings, objects, films and sculptures that will be displayed as part of Art in Exile (5 July 2019 – 5 January 2020). At the outbreak of the Second World War, a very small proportion of IWM’s collection was chosen for special evacuation, including just 281works of art and 305 albums of photographs. This accounted for less than 1% of IWM’s entire collection and 7% of IWM’s art collection at the time, which held works by prominent twentieth- century artists including William Orpen, John Singer Sargent, Paul Nash and John Lavery. Exploring which works of art were saved and which were not, Art in Exile will examine the challenges faced by cultural organisations during wartime. With the exodus of Britain’s cultural treasures from London to safety came added pressures on museums to strike a balance between protecting, conserving and displaying their collections. The works on IWM’s 1938 priority list, 60 of which will be reproduced on one wall in the exhibition, were destined for storage in the country homes of IWM’s Trustees, where it was believed German bombers were unlikely to venture.

Online Course Description
Online Course Introducing… Reynolds and His Rivals Dates Tuesday 14 and Wednesday 15 September 2021 Times 18.00–20.00 GMT Location Zoom Webinar Tutor Jacqui Ansell Level All Levels Joshua Reynolds, Miss Nelly O'Brien, about 1762-63 (detail) Course Description The great painter, Sir Joshua Reynolds, was famously the first President of the Royal Academy, founded in 1768. The son of a Devon schoolteacher, he rose through the ranks of society to achieve his ultimate aim – to paint for King George III. In his mission to raise the status of painting to the same rank as its ‘sister art of poetry,’ he developed a style of portraiture known as the ‘Grand Style’, imbued with intellectual content. Known as much for his experimental techniques as his innovative iconography, Reynolds’ paintings often suffered from the ravages of time and taste – with young artists of the 19th century christening him ‘Sir Sloshua’! Fashion, in terms of dress as well as approaches to portraiture, will be the key subject of this course, as we explore Reynolds’ attempts to appeal to posterity, as well as to his contemporaries. Session One: ‘Something Modern for the Sake of Likeness’ The 18th century was a ‘Golden Age’ for British portraiture, with Hogarth, Reynolds, Ramsay, as well as Wright of Derby, Gainsborough and Lawrence emerging to lead this field. The rise of Rococo fashions in art and dress created a concern for frills and fripperies, which posed a problem for artists. Not only were these fiddly and time- consuming to consign to canvas, but the rapid pace of fashion change meant that portraits could look old-fashioned before the paint was dry.
