After studying at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, he fought in the Franco-Prussian War and then settled in England. As a caricaturist for Vanity Fair, he met London's social elite and became a fashionable portrait painter, especially of elegantly dressed women. In 1886, moved by a religious impulse, he made his first trip to Palestine and then devoted the next ten years to illustrating the Bible in watercolor paintings. His research for these works, many of which belong to the Brooklyn Museum in Brooklyn, N.Y., was painstaking and often included visits to the sites of the biblical incidents. • We provide hand painted reproductions of old master paintings.

No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Introduction: The Reading of the Model JOHN ELDERFIELD La lecture du modèle, et sa réalization, est quelquefois très lent à venir pour l’artiste. Cézanne to Charles Camoin, 9 December 19041 Paul Cézanne was born in Aix-en-Provence on 19 January 1839, and died there aged sixty-seven on 23 October 1906. He made almost 1,000 paintings, of which around 160 are portraits.2 This publication accompanies the only exhibition exclusively devoted to these works since 1910, when Ambroise Vollard, who had been the artist’s dealer, showed twenty-four ‘Figures de Cézanne’. The present, much larger selection was chosen with the aims of providing a guide to the range and development of Cézanne’s portraits, the methods of their making, and the choice of their sitters. Also, more broadly, it is intended to raise the question of what the practice of portraiture meant for Cézanne when he was painting – or, as he said, reading and ‘realising’ – the model. Old Rules When Cézanne began painting portraits in the early 1860s, portraiture in France had long been acknowledged as a genre second in importance only to paintings of historical and mythological subjects. It was growing in popularity, and it would continue to do so during the period of Cézanne’s career: in the late 1880s, a National Portrait Gallery would be proposed for Paris, as well as a special gallery for portraits in the Louvre.3 It was during the 1860s and 1870s, however, that many ambitious painters found themselves enquiring what a portrait should aim to do.

  • Paul César HELLEU (Vannes 1859 - Paris 1927)
    Paul César HELLEU (Vannes 1859 - Paris 1927) A Young Woman Seated at a Table Watercolour, heightened with gouache. Signed Helleu at the lower left. Inscribed [??] / M. Renard 190 Bd Pereire in pencil on the verso. 369 x 480 mm. (14 1/2 x 18 7/8 in.) The pencil inscription on the verso of the present sheet may refer to Marie Renard, a professional model who posed several times for Helleu, as well as for Edouard Manet and Berthe Morisot. Helleu met Marie Renard in 1879, and she seems to have posed often for the artist in the early part of his career, throughout the 1880s. A painted portrait of Marie Renard by Helleu, dated 1884 and depicting her writing at a desk, is in a private collection, while another painting of her, dated 1886, is in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Rouen. Stylistically comparable to the present sheet is a watercolour study - drawn in 1886 and depicting his wife Alice, during their honeymoon, seated at a desk and seen from behind - in the collection of the Musée Bonnat-Helleu in Bayonne. Literature: To be included in the forthcoming Helleu catalogue raisonné, under the number AQ-6362. Artist description: Admitted into the École des Beaux-Arts in 1876, at the age of sixteen, Paul-César Helleu studied there with Jean-Léon Gerome, whom he accompanied to London in 1885. He developed a strong attachment to England, and was to return to London frequently throughout his career. In Paris, his circle of intimate friends included his fellow artists Giovanni Boldini, Alfred Stevens, James Whistler, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet and, in particular, John Singer Sargent, with whom he briefly shared a studio and who bought a pastel from Helleu.

  • Crazy About Japan: Japonisme in Nordic Art and Design on Display
    Gunhild Borggreen Crazy about Japan Japonisme in Nordic Art and Design on Display Keywords: Japonisme, Nordic, art, design The large-scale art exhibition entitled Japanomania in the North 1875- 1918: The Influence of Japan on Nordic Art and Design is touring three Nordic countries during 2016 and 2017.1 The exhibition focuses on Nordic Japonisme, that is, how Nordic art and design was influenced by Japanese art. The title indicates that the Nordic countries were under the spell of a craze about things Japanese in the last part of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century. Acknowledging the multiple artistic influences from a number of various sources in this period, the exhibition curators nevertheless argue that no other revivalist style or outside influence has contributed to the formation of European visual arts in the nineteenth century as much as the impact of Japonisme. The American expert in Japonisme Gabriel P. Weisberg is credited as the Chief Curator for the exhibition, and the show is curated by the Ateneum Art Museum, Finnish National Gallery in Helsinki, the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in Oslo in collabo- ration with the Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Den- mark) in Copenhagen. I visited the Japanomania exhibition in Oslo on 1 The term ‘Nordic’ usually refers to Sweden, Norway, Finland, DenmarK, and Iceland as well as the associated territories of Greenland, the Faroe Islands, and the Aaland Islands.

    Sleep, Sickness, and Spirituality: Altered States and Victorian Visions of Femininity in British and American Art, 1850-1915 Kimberly E. Hereford A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: Susan Casteras, Chair Paul Berger Stuart Lingo Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Art History ©Copyright 2015 Kimberly E. Hereford ii University of Washington Abstract Sleep, Sickness, and Spirituality: Altered States and Victorian Visions of Femininity in British and American Art, 1850-1915 Kimberly E. Hereford Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Susan Casteras Art History This dissertation examines representations in art of the Victorian woman in “altered states.” Though characterized in Victorian art in a number of ways, women are most commonly stereotyped as physically listless and mentally vacuous. The images examined show the Victorian female in a languid and at times reclining or supine pose in these representations. In addition, her demeanor implies both emotional and physical depletion, and there is both a pronounced abandonment of the physical and a collapsing effect, as if all mental faculties are withdrawing inward. Each chapter is dedicated to examining one of these distinct but interrelated types of femininity that flourished throughout British and American art from c. 1850 to c. 1910. The chapters for this dissertation are organized sequentially to demonstrate a selected progression of various states of consciousness, from the most obvious (the sleeping woman) to iii the more nuanced (the female Aesthete and the female medium). In each chapter, there is the visual perception of the Victorian woman as having access to otherworldly conditions of one form or another.

  • Real and Ideal Women of the Gilded Age
    SCHEHERAZADE AND HER SISTERS: REAL AND IDEAL WOMEN OF THE GILDED AGE (or: GILDED AGE ART AND THE POLITICS OF GENDER) By Bram Dijkstra “The Earthly Woman (with a woman’s weakness, and a woman’s faults) seems less fair than her Ideal Image…the primal Eve of Paradise.” -- Owen Meredith (i.e. Edward R. Bulwer-Lytton, 1831-1891), After Paradise. “A society sprawling on materialism and wallowing in ostentatious display—what should it care for, or even know of, choiceness of taste and reverence for what is true in art?” -- Charles H. Caffin, The Story of American Painting (1907), 360. For most of Western history, men undoubtedly fantasized about “ideal images” of women far more than women bothered to idealize men. However, throughout the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth, men came to consider what they habitually identified as “the battle of the sexes,” one of the basic laws of nature. In particular, when, in the second half of the nineteenth century the theory of evolution began to take center stage in the imagination of most progressive intellectuals, this phrase came to be seen as justifying “man’s” struggle against the forces of “degeneration” (a counterforce to evolution widely thought to be generated by those women who proved unwilling to be shaped by men’s fantasies about them). During this period of rapid economic expansion driven by what came to be seen as “the struggle for existence,” the put-upon white—and preferably Aryan—male’s striving for a qualitative racial transcendence that would match their expanding material wealth, often seemed undercut by what was seen as women’s inability to abandon a static focus on issues of practical immediacy, such as their relentless pursuit of what was delicately identified as the male’s “vital essence.” In the face of women’s inability to evolve, the production of men’s “ideal images of women” came to be seen as a necessary form of encouragement to the less “fair,” the less tractable, “earthly women,” to give up their obstructive ways and instead become “angels” of passivity and submission.

  • Women, Art, and Feeling at the Fin De Siècle Meaghan Clarke
    On Tempera and Temperament: Women, Art, and Feeling at the Fin de Siècle Meaghan Clarke She saw — no, not saw, but felt — through and through a picture; she bestowed upon it all the warmth and richness of a woman’s sympathy; not by any intellectual effort, but by this strength of heart, and this guiding light of sympathy.1 In her recent book Women Writing Art History in the Nineteenth Century, Hilary Fraser observes that in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Marble Faun (1860), Hilda’s visual agency is subsumed into the vision of the master painter.2 Hilda is widely regarded as being modelled on Hawthorne’s wife, the painter and illustrator Sophia Peabody Hawthorne. Hawthorne’s refer- ence to a ‘woman’s sympathy’ prompts a wider consideration of the gender- ing of aesthetic response in novels of the period. Indeed, The Marble Faun is one of numerous texts, most famously Ruskin’s Sesame and Lilies (1865), which set out artistic roles for women in the Victorian period. Descriptions and images of women as viewers of art and art gallery visitors offer one avenue for exploring women’s aesthetic experience. Although public, museums and galleries quickly became identified as preferred spaces for women visitors. Victorian writers and theorists pos- ited a gendered dichotomy between the temperaments of the sexes.3 The temperament of feminine viewers meant they were uniquely capable of a 1 Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Marble Faun; or, The Romance of Monte Beni, 2 vols ( Boston: Ticknor and Fields, 1860), i, 75–76. 2 Hilary Fraser, Women Writing Art History in the Nineteenth Century: Looking Like a Woman, Cambridge Studies in Nineteenth-Century Literature and Culture, 95 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2014), p.
