First, the era is one of the richest art historically, encompassing both the height of the Academic tradition and the beginning of Modern Art with the emergence of the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists. Second, due to the large amount of quality artwork produced by artists during this era, many opportunities remain for collectors to acquire exquisite quality artworks at very reasonable prices. Last, artwork from the 19th and early 20th centuries has withstood the test of time in terms of quality, value, and interest. Due to its beauty and high quality, art from the 19th century continues to garner the interest of scholars, collectors, and investors.

Signed L.R. Watercolor Charming Children and Endearing Pets During the 19th century, patronage of the arts changed. There was a rising bourgeoisie and a greater international awareness of pictorial ideas. Genre triumphed! There was now a fascination with everyday scenes—in images of intimate and trivial domestic life, country experiences, and the working class. With the Industrial Revolution, a new, large segment of the population began accumulating great wealth. Immense fortunes were made and patrons were plentiful. Artists could choose a subject for the sheer purpose of pleasing the eye or amusing the viewer. Preferred subjects included cavaliers, beauties, military, adorable children, and charming animals. Gustave DeJonghe: a famous painter of elegant interior genre scenes concentrating on the upper middle class and often focusing on the lives of fashionable women. De Jonghe presented his sitters in elegant costumes, typically with a warm and welcoming disposition. Like Boldini, Sargent, and Tissot, he depicted elegant ladies at leisure or everyday life. *Greatly cherished was the idea of “home.” The gentle wife in the tranquility of beautiful surroundings, lounging with her endearing children and adorable pets, became an appealing subject. Beauty was heightened by dress and haute couture. This exciting Belle Epoque style is extremely appealing to today’s collector. Gustave de Jonghe Belgian, 1829-1893 Afternoon Repose 45 ½” x 37 ½” fr.

Sir Perceval, a knight of the Round Table, has taken an oath to assist people in distress. He has been stopped by a raven-haired temptress, who tries to seduce him with a table loaded with exotic meats, fruit, and wine. The artist depicts the exact instant in which Sir Perceval glances at his sword and is reminded of his knightly oath to King Arthur and God. *The painting is loaded with symbols: the boar’s head represents lust; the hyssop plant—a powerful purgative— is equated with penitence and humility; and the mouse represents the ability to overcome great odds. The Pre-Raphaelites were a group of Victorian British artists who worked in a meticulous style and drew on British history for subject matter.

Lhermitte worked both in oil and pastel, and his scenes of rural life are most beautiful when they are executed in pastel, capturing the scintillating interaction between light and atmosphere in the countryside. Jean François Raffaelli Although Raffaelli was trained in the French Academic tradition of Gérôme, the real influence on his style came from the light color and light-infused technique of the Impressionists, with whom he exhibited in several group shows.

This is why Statesmen, and more generally the leaders, always have the objective and concern to leave for posterity or to strengthen big cultural institutions. As proof of this we can quote, as examples, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, the British Museum, the Monastery of Escorial or the many American Presidential Libraries which honor the memory of the various Presidents of the United States. Since the Holy Roman Empire and, notably, in Europe during the Renaissance times cultural sponsorship has been increasingly active for the sake of art or for the sense of splendor. Nowadays, if there is a country where sponsors have a constant and decisive presence in the world of the art, this is certainly the United States. Names given to museum rooms in memory of devoted sponsors, as well as labels next to the paintings noting the donor’s name, are a very visible aspect of cultural sponsorship, especially in America.

  • Center Bridge Burning
    Burning of Center Bridge, 1923 Edward W. Redfield (1869-1965 oil on canvas H. 50.25 x W 56.25 inches James A. Michener Art Museum, acquired with funds secured by State Senator Joe Conti, and gifts from Joseph and Anne Gardocki, and the Laurent Redfield Family Biography The Pennsylvania school born in the Academy at Philadelphia or in the person of Edward W. Redfield is a very concise expression of the simplicity of our language and of the prosaic nature of our sight. It is democratic painting—broad, without subtlety, vigorous in language if not absolutely in heart, blatantly obvious or honest in feeling. It is an unbiased, which means, inartistic, record of nature. —Guy Pene du Bois Among the New Hope impressionists, Edward Willis Redfield was the most decorated, winning more awards than any other American artist except John Singer Sargent. Primarily a landscape painter, Redfield was acclaimed as the most “American” artist of the New Hope school because of his vigor and individualism. Redfield favored the technique of painting en plein air, that is, outdoors amid nature. Tying his canvas to a tree, Redfield worked in even the most brutal weather. Painting rapidly, in thick, broad brushstrokes, and without attempting preliminary sketches, Redfield typically completed his paintings in one sitting. Although Redfield is best known for his snow scenes, he painted several spring and summer landscapes, often set in Maine, where he spent his summers. He also painted cityscapes, including, most notably, Between Daylight and Darkness (1909), an almost surreal, tonalist painting of the New York skyline in twilight.

In 2000, he opened Mims Studios in Southern Pines, NC, offering a multi-year course in the meth - ods and values of classical realist drawing, easel painting, and mural painting.

  • Problematic Provenance: Toward a Coherent United States Policy on the International Trade in Cultural Property
    COMMENTS PROBLEMATIC PROVENANCE: TOWARD A COHERENT UNITED STATES POLICY ON THE INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN CULTURAL PROPERTY MARY McKBNNA* 1. INTRODUCTION The 1980s have seen United States policy gradually retreat from the trend, traceable from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization Convention of 1970 ("UNESCO Conven- tion") through the much-discussed McClain decisions1 of 1979, toward * J.D., 1990, University of Pennsylvania Law School; A.B., 1983, Harvard University. 1 The McClain case resulted in two proceedings and two appeals, United States v. McClain, 545 F.2d 988 (5th Cir. 1977), reh'g denied, 551 F.2d 52 (5th Cir. 1977), and United States v. McClain, 593 F.2d 658 (5th Cir. 1979). In the first appeal, the defendants were convicted of theft under the National Stolen Property Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 2314, 2315 (1970 & Supp. 1990) [hereinafter NSPA], for dealing in pre-Columbian objects exported from Mexico in violation of Mexican law purporting to vest title to all such property in the Mexican government. Articulating the theory underlying the con- victions, the court reasoned that, for purposes of the NSPA, which forbids the transpor- tation in interstate commerce or the receipt of stolen goods, illegally exported artifacts subject to such a national declaration of ownership are "stolen." The second McClain appeal resulted in a reversal of the substantive NSPA conviction (although the court of appeals sustained convictions for conspiracy) on the grounds that the particular statute upon which the Mexican government based its claim was too vague to satisfy United States constitutional standards for criminal proceedings. However, the decision left open the possibility that a person might be convicted under the NSPA for conduct like that of the McClain defendants under similar circumstances.

  • Historians of Nineteenth-Century Art Newsletter
    SPRING 2012 Volume 19, No. 1 Historians of Nineteenth-Century Art Newsletter LES GRANDES VERTICALES: RENOIR AT THE FRICK COLLECTION By Caterina Y. Pierre This spring, visitors to the Frick Collection have the opportu- nity to view a small but splendid exhibition entitled “Renoir, Impressionism, and Full-Length Painting,” organized by Colin B. Bailey, the Frick’s Deputy Director and the Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator. The exhibition, which runs through May 13, 2012, is accompanied by a sumptuous catalogue authored by Bailey and co-published by the Frick and Yale University Press (ISBN 978-0-300-18108-1, US $60.00). The exhibition takes an in-depth look at nine of Renoir’s large- scale, mostly vertical, canvases created over the nine-year pe- riod between 1874 and 1883. The catalogue includes a tenth painting, Jeanne Samary, a full-length portrait that was un- available for the exhibition. The inspiration for the exhibition seems to have stemmed from a recent reevaluation of the Frick’s own vertical for- mat canvas by Renoir, La Promenade (1875-76), acquired by Henry Clay Frick for $35,000 in 1914 from Knoedler and Company. Recent infrared reflectography studies completed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art have revealed two addi- tional figures at the top left of La Promenade, suggesting that the principle large female figure in the center of the painting, usually referred to as the “mother” figure, might now be seen as an older sister to the two foreground children. Similar re- search, particularly of the technological kind, was offered for many of the paintings on view through the catalogue and a small media room outside of the exhibition.

Pleasant evening and early morning. I'm going to try to do a bit less smoking this year. Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Davis,6 old "Wyatt" of the old 806 days,7 to dinner, with their boy 1 Robert Henri (1865-1929) was a major influence in American art in the last decade of the 19th century and the first of the 20th both as a painter and a teacher. He and Sloan met in December 1892. While Sloan never studied formally with Henri, he acknowldged him as his "father in art." Although their paths diverged after the period covered by the diaries, he and Sloan were very close in 1906. Henri's wife, Linda, had died the month before the dairies began and Henri, very lonely, visited the Sloans often. Henri's name was originally Robert Henry Cozad, but the family abandoned the use of "Cozad." His father and mother adopted the surname "Lee" and Henri's brother John became "Frank L. Southrn."

New York: Dover Publications, Inc. 1991, pp. 5-6] 2 Edward Wyatt Davis, a friend of Sloan's from the early 1890s and assistant art editor of the Philadelphia Press for which Sloan had worked, had moved to New York and become art editor of the humor magazine Judge.
