Hamilton’s nephew Charles Greville wrote to him in October 1784: ‘Let me know how the Bacchante is to be paid. I will have it packed when an opportunity arises. The dog was ugly and I made him paint it again.’ It was finally paid for in September 1788. The portrait is said to have been lost at sea on its return to England but Greville presumably had a replica painted which was included in his Executor’s sale on 31st March 1810 and later recorded in the collection of Tankerville Chamberlayne. In the finished painting, Lady Hamilton’s arms are behind her back but the pose is otherwise the same. 7 GP Summer 2015 22 4 15_Layout 1 23/04/2015 14:20 Page 8 5 George Romney (1734-1802) Study of a Nude Woman Pencil on laid paper Sheet 18.9 by 12 cm., 7 ½ by 4 ¾ in.

  • William Turner of Oxford (1789-1862)
    William Turner of Oxford (1789-1862) By LUKE HERRMANN HE working life of William Turner of Oxford was immediately preceded T by the most vital period in the emergence of the English water-colour school, and coincided exactly with the most revolutionary years in the history of English landscape painting. But in these stirring movements William Turner played no part, and there was no great originality in his painting and drawing. He was one of many competent and skilful artists whose work provided the backcloth of tradition and solid achievement against which the more gifted artists could develop. Constable, De Wint, Girtin, J. M. W. Turner and John Varley were all between ten and twenty years older than William Turner, who was born in 1789. Other artists born in the 1780's includeJ. S. Cotman, David Cox, Copley Fielding and Samuel Prout. William Turner was considerably influenced by several of these men, but it is unlikely that he in his turn had any influence on them. He ranks as a pleasing minor artist, whose work in water-colours occasionally, especially in his early years, rose to considerable heights. Among the artists who Bved and worked ill Oxford, of whom there are relatively few, he is certainly the best-knowll ; and, of course, the fact that he has always been known as Turner of Oxford, to distinguish him from his great contemporary, J. M. W. Turner, who was fourteen years his senior, has meant that his Oxford associations have never been forgotten. Thus it is fitting that the centenary of his death should be marked in this journal.

  • William Blake's Visions and the Unio Artistica1
    William Blake's Visions and the Unio Artistica1 By BO LINDBERG Early writers on William Blake were very much attracted by his visions. They presented the sensational stuff with remarkable dramatic skill, using it as evidence of Blake's being either eccentric, insane or divine.2 Modern scholars, on the other hand, refuse to take the visions seriously, explaining away Blake's descriptions of them as "poetic language" and rejecting the visionary heads as a hoax, with which Blake amused himself at the expense of credulous friends.3 The present article forms part of a work in progress, dealing with William Blake's illustrations for the Book of Job. 2 Cf. "Nativity of Mr. Blake The Mystical Artist", Urania, or, The Astrologer's Chronicle, No. I, London, Dec. 20th, 1825, p. 71. John Varley, A Treatise of Zodiacal Physiognomy, London 1828, gives a detailed account of the apparition of the Ghost of a Flea, cf. below, p. 244, note 1. In the Revue Britannique, Juillet 1833, appeared an interview with Blake "le Voyant" in the Bedlam Madhouse "Statistique. Hôpital des fous à Londres". Blake was never in Bedlam, and the interview is altogether false. It was quoted as fact by A. Brierre de Boismont, Des Hallucinations, Paris 1845 (Engl. transl. London 1859, pp. 83-85), and by John Timbs, English Eccentrics and Eccentricities, London 1866, I, pp. 67-69, 2nd ed., 1875, p. 346. The article in the Revue Britannique is compiled and distorted from a sensational but correct notice, "Bits of Biography, Blake, the Vision Seer, and Martin, the York Minster Incendiary", The Monthly Magazine, March 1833.
