As was true of the original series, which was inaugurated in 1947 under Archibald G. Wenley, director of the museum, this iteration of the Occasional Papers is intended to appeal primarily to specialist readers and to include a wide range of subject matter, methodologies, and formats. This, the second volume in the series, moves from the realm of conservation sci- ence into art-historical inquiry, focusing on the American expatriate James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903). When the Freer Gallery of Art opened in 1923 as the first art museum in the Smithsonian Institution, it was largely the result of the mutual esteem and genuine friendship that had developed between Whistler and Charles Lang Freer, the American businessman and collector, who first introduced himself to the artist in an unannounced visit to his London studio in 1890. The relation- ship flourished, and in addition to aiding Freer in amassing what the artist called "a fine collection of Whistlers!! — perhaps Tlie collection," Whistler also inspireci Freer to visit Asia, where, he explained. Freer would find artistic treasures — early chapters in what he called "the story of the beautiful" — from which his own art was descended. Eventually Freer's collection and the museum that he founded would become primarily focused on the arts of Asia. Even so. Whistler's work is still a sig- nificant presence in our galleries and his aesthetic philosophy permeates the entire museum. The Whistler collection at the Freer Gallery includes 130 paintings, 174 drawings, and 946 prints, and our archival materials range from press clippings and photographs to a significant body of correspondence between Whistler and Freer, first published by the Freer Gallery of Art and now part of the complete correspon- dence published online by the University of Glasgow. This volume represents another collaborative effort between these two institu- tions. Tlie essays published here were first presented at the University of Glasgow in 2003, at a symposium occasioned by the centenary of the artists death. Together, Glasgow and the Freer Gallery of Art hold the foremost collections of work by James McNeill Whistler and have worked together for many years with the common aim of furthering research on Whistlers art and its historical significance. Nigel Thorp, who was director of the University's Centre for Whistler Studies at the time of the centenary, is owed a large debt of gratitude for his unstinting devotion to promoting new scholarship and for encouraging Lee Glazer, the current curator of American art at the Freer and Sackler Galleries, to bring this long awaited volume to completion. i The collective wealth of our artistic and scholarly resources will doubtless inspire many more opportunities to enjoy Whistler's aesthetic vision and explore the com- plexity of his cultural contexts. This volume was funded by a publications endowment established with a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and by a generous donation from the Lunder Foundation. Julian Raby Director ii Introduction Nigel Tlwrp I In April 1903 the University of Glasgow conferred on James Whistler the honor- ary degree of Doctor of Laws, in recognition of his lifetime of outstanding artistic achievement. Whistler was then in failing health and was unable to accept the de- gree in person, but he was delighted at the honor, and in his letter of acceptance he drew attention to the Scottish ancestry that he claimed through his mother's family of McNeill. His connections with the city itself had begun as early as 1849, when, following his father's early death in Russia, the surviving Whistler family visited relatives and friends in England and Scotland before returning to live in the United States. Years later, in 1891, his portrait of Thomas Carlyle, Arrangement in Grey and Black, No. 2 (see fig. 10.2), became the first of his paintings to enter a public col- lection when it was bought by the Corporation of Glasgow.

  • 16 Exhibition on Screen
    Exhibition on Screen - The Impressionists – And the Man Who Made Them 2015, Run Time 97 minutes An eagerly anticipated exhibition travelling from the Musee d'Orsay Paris to the National Gallery London and on to the Philadelphia Museum of Art is the focus of the most comprehensive film ever made about the Impressionists. The exhibition brings together Impressionist art accumulated by Paul Durand-Ruel, the 19th century Parisian art collector. Degas, Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, and Sisley, are among the artists that he helped to establish through his galleries in London, New York and Paris. The exhibition, bringing together Durand-Ruel's treasures, is the focus of the film, which also interweaves the story of Impressionism and a look at highlights from Impressionist collections in several prominent American galleries. Paintings: Rosa Bonheur: Ploughing in Nevers, 1849 Constant Troyon: Oxen Ploughing, Morning Effect, 1855 Théodore Rousseau: An Avenue in the Forest of L’Isle-Adam, 1849 (Barbizon School) Jean-François Millet: The Gleaners, 1857 (Barbizon School) Jean-François Millet: The Angelus, c. 1857-1859 (Barbizon School) Charles-François Daubigny: The Grape Harvest in Burgundy, 1863 (Barbizon School) Jean-François Millet: Spring, 1868-1873 (Barbizon School) Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot: Ruins of the Château of Pierrefonds, c. 1830-1835 Théodore Rousseau: View of Mont Blanc, Seen from La Faucille, c. 1863-1867 Eugène Delecroix: Interior of a Dominican Convent in Madrid, 1831 Édouard Manet: Olympia, 1863 Pierre Auguste Renoir: The Swing, 1876 16 Alfred Sisley: Gateway to Argenteuil, 1872 Édouard Manet: Luncheon on the Grass, 1863 Edgar Degas: Ballet Rehearsal on Stage, 1874 Pierre Auguste Renoir: Ball at the Moulin de la Galette, 1876 Pierre Auguste Renoir: Portrait of Mademoiselle Legrand, 1875 Alexandre Cabanel: The Birth of Venus, 1863 Édouard Manet: The Fife Player, 1866 Édouard Manet: The Tragic Actor (Rouvière as Hamlet), 1866 Henri Fantin-Latour: A Studio in the Batingnolles, 1870 Claude Monet: The Thames below Westminster, c.

  • Claude Monet (1840-1926)
    Caroline Mc Corriston Claude Monet (1840-1926) ● Monet was the leading figure of the impressionist group. ● As a teenager in Normandy he was brought to paint outdoors by the talented painter Eugéne Boudin. Boudin taught him how to use oil paints. ● Monet was constantly in financial difficulty. His paintings were rejected by the Salon and critics attacked his work. ● Monet went to Paris in 1859. He befriended the artists Cézanne and Pissarro at the Academie Suisse. (an open studio were models were supplied to draw from and artists paid a small fee).He also met Courbet and Manet who both encouraged him. ● He studied briefly in the teaching studio of the academic history painter Charles Gleyre. Here he met Renoir and Sisley and painted with them near Barbizon. ● Every evening after leaving their studies, the students went to the Cafe Guerbois, where they met other young artists like Cezanne and Degas and engaged in lively discussions on art. ● Monet liked Japanese woodblock prints and was influenced by their strong colours. He built a Japanese bridge at his home in Giverny. Monet and Impressionism ● In the late 1860s Monet and Renoir painted together along the Seine at Argenteuil and established what became known as the Impressionist style. ● Monet valued spontaneity in painting and rejected the academic Salon painters’ strict formulae for shading, geometrically balanced compositions and linear perspective. ● Monet remained true to the impressionist style but went beyond its focus on plein air painting and in the 1890s began to finish most of his work in the studio. Personal Style and Technique ● Use of pure primary colours (straight from the tube) where possible ● Avoidance of black ● Addition of unexpected touches of primary colours to shadows ● Capturing the effect of sunlight ● Loose brushstrokes Subject Matter ● Monet painted simple outdoor scenes in the city, along the coast, on the banks of the Seine and in the countryside.
