    Catalogue of the Collection of Pictures and Bronzes IN THE POSSESSION OF MR. OTTO BEIT INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTIONS DR. WILHELM BODE DIRECTOR-GENERAL OF THE ROYAL MUSEUMS AT BERLIN LONDON PRIVATELY PRINTED AT THE CHISWICK PRESS Of this Catalogue only One Hundred and Twenty-Five Copies have been printed This is No. 26 The Photogravure plates in this Catalogue are by the Berlin Photographic Company of London and Berlin. The plates and letterpress are printed on handmade Japanese paper pro- cured from Tokio. TWf j P*W. INTRODUCTION iORKS of art, and more especially pidfures, have always been regarded as necessary adjundls to every well-appointed English house since the days when Englishmen, making the “ grand tour,” availed themselves of their opportunities for acquiring art treasures in the Netherlands, Italy, France, and Spain (in many cases diredf from private owners), works which in those days were sold for nominal sums, and sometimes were pradlically given away. Ridicule has been freely cast upon the English mania for picking up curios of every description as mementoes of foreign travel, nevertheless it is to this propensity that we owe the preservation of countless works of art which would otherwise have perished; while the descendants of these colledfors have thus become possessed of an inheritance, the value of which in these days is almost incalculable. Pidures thus acquired on the continent, added to innumerable family portraits by the best foreign artists, and later by the leading masters of the British School, gradually filled the halls, corridors, and galleries in the country seats and town houses of the English nobility and gentry, and in this way a large number of important private colledions of pidures came to be formed in Great Britain during the last two hundred years.

  • The Transformation of Pushkin's Eugene Onegin Into Tchaikovsky's Opera
    THE TRANSFORMATION OF PUSHKIN'S EUGENE ONEGIN INTO TCHAIKOVSKY'S OPERA Molly C. Doran A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2012 Committee: Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Megan Rancier © 2012 Molly Doran All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Since receiving its first performance in 1879, Pyotr Il’yich Tchaikovsky’s fifth opera, Eugene Onegin (1877-1878), has garnered much attention from both music scholars and prominent figures in Russian literature. Despite its largely enthusiastic reception in musical circles, it almost immediately became the target of negative criticism by Russian authors who viewed the opera as a trivial and overly romanticized embarrassment to Pushkin’s novel. Criticism of the opera often revolves around the fact that the novel’s most significant feature—its self-conscious narrator—does not exist in the opera, thus completely changing one of the story’s defining attributes. Scholarship in defense of the opera began to appear in abundance during the 1990s with the work of Alexander Poznansky, Caryl Emerson, Byron Nelson, and Richard Taruskin. These authors have all sought to demonstrate that the opera stands as more than a work of overly personalized emotionalism. In my thesis I review the relationship between the novel and the opera in greater depth by explaining what distinguishes the two works from each other, but also by looking further into the argument that Tchaikovsky’s music represents the novel well by cleverly incorporating ironic elements as a means of capturing the literary narrator’s sardonic voice.

At the same time, we explore the works of artists who did not retain the renown they enjoyed during their lifetimes and who fell into obscurity. But obscurity is not necessarily forever, and as cycles of taste have changed, these once-forgotten artists and their largely unknown works have re-surfaced to startle us today.
