Evolution and Ambition in the Career of Jan Lievens (1607-1674)
ABSTRACT Title: EVOLUTION AND AMBITION IN THE CAREER OF JAN LIEVENS (1607-1674) Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Prof. Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology The Dutch artist Jan Lievens (1607-1674) was viewed by his contemporaries as one of the most important artists of his age. Ambitious and self-confident, Lievens assimilated leading trends from Haarlem, Utrecht and Antwerp into a bold and monumental style that he refined during the late 1620s through close artistic interaction with Rembrandt van Rijn in Leiden, climaxing in a competition for a court commission. Lievens’s early Job on the Dung Heap and Raising of Lazarus demonstrate his careful adaptation of style and iconography to both theological and political conditions of his time. This much-discussed phase of Lievens’s life came to an end in 1631when Rembrandt left Leiden. Around 1631-1632 Lievens was transformed by his encounter with Anthony van Dyck, and his ambition to be a court artist led him to follow Van Dyck to London in the spring of 1632. His output of independent works in London was modest and entirely connected to Van Dyck and the English court, thus Lievens almost certainly worked in Van Dyck’s studio. In 1635, Lievens moved to Antwerp and returned to history painting, executing commissions for the Jesuits, and he also broadened his artistic vocabulary by mastering woodcut prints and landscape paintings. After a short and successful stay in Leiden in 1639, Lievens moved to Amsterdam permanently in 1644, and from 1648 until the end of his career was engaged in a string of important and prestigious civic and princely commissions in which he continued to demonstrate his aptitude for adapting to and assimilating the most current style of his day to his own somber monumentality. -

Felice Beato: a Photographer on the Eastern Road
DATE: November 4, 2010 Contact: Melissa Crowley FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (310) 440-6795 / [email protected] THE FASCINATING LIFE AND WORK OF FELICE BEATO, ONE OF THE EARLIEST PHOTOGRAPHERS TO CAPTURE VIEWS OF THE EAST Felice Beato: A Photographer on the Eastern Road LOS ANGELES—In recent years Felice Beato (1832–1909) has come to be recognized as one of the major photographers of the nineteenth century, yet until now there has been no general survey of his singular life and work. Felice Beato: A Photographer on the Eastern Road (Getty Publications, $39.95, hardcover) includes an engaging narrative of his life and entrepreneurial career and a thought-provoking essay on Beato and the photography of war. There is a generous selection of his photographs, including panoramas and hand-colored Japanese studies, along with captivating period ephemera, lithographs based on his work, and humorous caricatures of the artist. Born in Venice, Italy, Beato came of age in the Ottoman capital of Constantinople. In 1856, as a young apprentice, he photographed the sites of the Crimean War, thereby launching a long and remarkably adventurous career. Over the next half century he would follow in the wake of the British Empire: Egypt, Palestine, and Syria; India, where he photographed the aftermath of the Indian Mutiny; and China, where he chronicled the Second Opium War. He spent some thirty years in Japan and Burma, where he was among the first commercial photographers at the time that these countries were starting to open to the West. This abundantly illustrated book accompanies an exhibition—the first devoted to Beato’s entire oeuvre—on view at the J. -
Reinterpreting Hieronymus Bosch's Table Top of the Seven
REINTERPRETING HIERONYMUS BOSCH'S TABLE TOP OF THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS AND THE FOUR LAST THINGS THROUGH THE SEVEN DAY PRAYERS OF THE DEVOTIO MODERNA Eunyoung Hwang, B.A., M.F.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2000 APPROVED: Scott Montgomery, Major Professor Larry Gleeson, Committee Member Don Schol, Committee Member and Associate Dean William McCarter, Chair of Art History and Art Education Jack Davis, Dean of the School of Visual Art C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Hwang, Eunyoung, Reinterpreting Hieronymus Bosch's Table Top of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things through the Seven Day Prayers of the Devotio Moderna. Master of Arts (Art History), August 2000, 140 pp., 35 illustrations, references, 105 titles. This thesis examines Hieronymus Bosch's Table Top of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things. Instead of using an iconographical analysis, the thesis investigates the relationship between Bosch's art and the Devotio Moderna, which has been speculated by many Bosch scholars. For this reason, a close study was done to examine the Devotio Moderna and its influence on Bosch's painting. Particular interest is paid to the seven day prayers of the Devotio Moderna, the subjects depicted in Bosch's painting, how Bosch's painting blesses its viewer during the time of one's prayer, and how the use of gaze ties all of these ideas together.

PERPETRATORS & POSSIBILITIES: HOLOCAUST DIARIES, RESISTANCE, AND THE CRISIS OF IMAGINATION by ERYK EMIL TAHVONEN Under the Direction of Jared Poley ABSTRACT This thesis examines the way genocide leaves marks in the writings of targeted people. It posits not only that these marks exist, but also that they indicate a type of psychological resistance. By focusing on the ways Holocaust diarists depicted Nazi perpetrators, and by concentrating on the ways language was used to distance the victim from the perpetrator, it is possible to see how Jewish diarists were engaged in alternate and subtle, but nevertheless important, forms of resistance to genocide. The thesis suggest this resistance on the part of victims is similar in many ways to well-known distancing mechanisms employed by perpetrators and that this evidence points to a “crisis of imagination” – for victims and perpetrators alike – in which the capability to envision negation and death, and to identify with the “Other” is detrimental to self-preservation. -
Felice Beato's Japan
X Portraits From the Dawn of a New Era X X X X X X X X X X X The above details all derive from the portrait album introduced in this unit. X Titled “Photographic Views of Japan with Historical and Descriptive Notes,” the photographs were taken by Felice Beato, the pioneer foreign X photographer in Yokohama, Japan’s major treaty port. The album was published shortly after 1868, the year the centuries-old feudal regime headed X by a hereditary Shogun was overthrown and a new, “modern” government under the Meiji emperor established. Through Beato’s lens, we gain an X unusually intimate view of a range of Japanese individuals on the cusp of a new era in their history. X 1 Felice A. Beato, photographer Felice A. Beato (ca. 1833–ca. 1909), a naturalized British citizen and extraordinary photographer, first arrived in Japan in 1863. Beato found the treaty port of Yokohama ideal for establishing a commercial photography studio. Once settled in Yokohama, Beato only made one trip abroad—to Korea to cover a British-U.S. military expedition in the mid 1870s. Established as a treaty port in 1859, Yokohama grew rapidly and bustled with the activity of foreign businessmen, merchants, seaman, and tourists, as well as a rapidly expanding population of Japanese attracted by its commercial opportunities. Beato's life and work are of considerable interest to scholars, curators, and collectors. His album Photographic Views Portrait of Felice A. Beato, 1860s of Japan with Historical and Descriptive by an unknown photographer (detail). Notes, published around 1869, [bjs100] introduces a dialogue between the photograph and the descriptive essay. -
