  • On Beauty and the Everyday: the Prints of James Mcneill Whistler
    On Beauty and the Everyday: The Prints of James McNeill Whistler The graphic work of the American painter and printmaker James McNeill Whistler (1834–1903) occupies a pivotal position in European printmaking. Unlike many painters, for whom an excursion into printmaking is a pursuit of secondary importance, Whistler was deeply engaged in making prints from his earliest years in the United States until shortly before his death in 1903. A few years later, The New York Times described him as “easily the greatest etcher of modern times.” He was also prodigious, executing during his nearly fifty-year career 442 etchings and 195 lithographs in which he gave rich expression to his distinctive artistic vision through his singular mastery of technique. Whistler was an innovative [and expert] practitioner of both etching and lithography at a time when these media were seen as appropriate mostly for commercial purposes and was instrumental in reclaiming them as suitable vehicles for original artistic creation. In his exquisitely understated and nuanced depictions of everyday subjects he rejected the notion that a straightforward rendering of nature was the highest aim of art, seeking instead to capture the scene before him more poetically. He could create extraordinary beauty out of some seemingly unpromising motifs—the squalor of rough commercial docks in London, or moldering and dilapidated buildings on urban back canals in Venice and Amsterdam—recasting them into his subtle visual language and giving them a rarified aesthetic beauty. Many of the sites depicted in his etchings and lithographs were in the process of disappearing altogether, lending a further resonance to these images.

  • Cleveland Architects Database
    Clevland Landmarks Commission Cleveland Architects Database The following is a listing of architects and master builders that have worked in Cleveland, from the 1820’s until the 1930’s. Discovering which architects designed certain buildings was determined by utilizing several sources, including the City of Cleveland Building Permits, and publications that included American Architect and Builder News, Inland Architect, Interstate Architect, the Ohio Architect and Builder, the Annals of Cleveland, the Plain Dealer, the Leader, the Press, Material Facts, the Bystander, and Cleveland Town Topics. The Cleveland Public Library card index for Architect’s in the Fine Arts Department was used. Books on Cleveland Architecture that were consulted included Cleveland Architecture 1876 – 1976, and the American Institute of Architects Guide to Cleveland Architecture were consulted. A catalogue of architectural drawings maintained by the Western Reserve Historical Society was consulted. The Cleveland Necrology file maintained by the Cleveland Public Library, the United States Census, and Cleveland City Directories were consulted in compiling this database. For the purposes of this database an architect was defined as anyone that called himself or herself as an architect. Robert Keiser compiled the Cleveland Architects as a hobby in after work hours over several years. This project terminates with 1930. Local building activity was severely curtailed by the Great Depression, and did not recover until the 1950’s. Many of the references in the database have
