  • Critical Ideology: Pope's Epistle to Burlington
    SYDNEY STUDIES Critical Ideology: Pope's Epistle to Burlington ROBEIIT W. WILLIAMS Well, it had to happen - Pope has been 'recuperated' for the modern reader. The word is not mine but is taken from the most recent general survey of Pope's work, that of Brean S. Hammond in the Harvester 'New Readings' series. Pope, it seems, can be recuperated because he can be shown to have that indispensable requirement for some current criticism - an ideology: ... the character of Pope's ideology is that of a family-based, Christian aristocrat or landed gentleman, implacably opposed to the elite of, as he believed, corrupt financiers, bankers and brokers who governed the country. Pope himself did not experience his ideology as an ideology, however.! There is an irony in that last sentence which, I think, escapes the writer of it. As Hammond "reads" it, the Epistle To Burlington is to be seen as an early example of the politicization of Pope's ideology, a preaching of the via media in which all extremes are to be eschewed. Through exemplary figures such as Burlington and Lord Bathurst, an ideology of aristocratic restraint is offered for adoption by the British voting public, especially the squirearchy and the lesser landed gentry. If this is all that current critical approaches can find to say about the poem that is worth saying, I would suggest that such a Procrustean approach does little to illuminate the poetry of To Burlington and, to a fair extent, falsifies the text. The matter of Epistle to Burlington is drawn from the aesthetics of landscape-gardening and architecture, areas of the Arts in which Pope and Burlington were both practitioners and theoreticians.

His works are predominantly head and shoulder portraits, often against a monochrome background. The viewer is drawn towards the sitter’s face by light accents revealed by clothing. After his initial training, Mierevelt quickly turned to portraiture. He gained success in this medium, becoming official painter of the court and gaining many commissions from the wealthy citizens of Delft, other Dutch nobles and visiting foreign dignitaries. His portraits display his characteristic dry manner of painting, evident in this work where the pigment has been applied without much oil. The elaborate lace collar and slashed doublet are reminiscent of clothes that appear in Frans Hals's work of the same period.

  • Programme V2
    Patrons: Monty Don OBE, Sir Donald Insall CBE, Kim Wilkie Alexander Pope Anniversary Concert St Mary’s Church Twickenham, 7th February 2019 An evening of music to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Alexander Pope’s arrival in Twickenham, held in the Church of St Mary the Virgin where Pope’s final resting place is marked by a plain stone in the aisle ‘A Prospect of Twickenham’, c. 1725, Peter Tillemans, reproduced by kind permission of the Richmond Borough Art Collection, Orleans House Gallery. Pope’s Villa is prominent to the left of centre. Alexander Pope Anniversary Concert Alexander Pope’s arrival in Twickenham in the spring of 1719 coincided with the growing attraction of the place as a seasonal resort for Londoners. He immediately began building his villa and grotto. This concert is the first of our events to celebrate the tercentenary of his arrival. The first part of the concert consists mostly of works by Pope’s contemporaries and associates and will be performed by the Petersham Consort. After the interval, the choir of Radnor House School, in the grounds of which the grotto lies, will perform works by Purcell, Handel and a contemporary arrangement of one of Pope’s poems. The Petersham Consort The Petersham Consort was formed in 2012 as a group of soloists to specialise in singing one-to-a-part sacred and secular choral music. They perform a wide range of solo and chamber works spanning five centuries. The singers are Katharine von Schubert (soprano), Elizabeth Benedetto (mezzo-soprano), Nick Richmond Smith (tenor) and Martin Johnson (bass), and they are accompanied on the piano by their director Ben Driver.

  • Tales and Travels Drawings Recently Acquired on the Sunny Crawford Von Bülow Fund June 22 Through September 30, 2007
    Tales and Travels Drawings Recently Acquired on the Sunny Crawford von Bülow Fund June 22 through September 30, 2007 Exhibition Labels Since her first gift in 1977—the insightful Portrait of Charles-Désiré Norry (1796–1818) by Jean-Auguste- Dominique Ingres—Sunny von Bülow, and more recently her daughter Cosima Pavoncelli, have made important acquisitions for the department of Drawings and Prints. During these three decades, they have substantially augmented the Morgan’s collection with eighty-two drawings and an album of sixty-four sheets. The selections for the Morgan were guided by a taste largely for eighteenth-century drawings and watercolors, although the chronological limits of the collection have recently expanded. The drawings presented here span three centuries and include several European schools. Despite this broad range, the group is particularly cohesive. Most of the drawings are highly finished, and many were made as independent works of art. This exhibition of the entire von Bülow collection, featuring thirty-seven new acquisitions since the first show of works acquired on the fund in 1995, commemorates the tremendous significance of the fund to the continued growth of the collection and honors the memory of Sunny von Bülow and her enduring and profoundly generous commitment to the Morgan. David Roberts (1796–1864) British Cairo, Looking West, 1839 Watercolor and gouache, over graphite Roberts was one of the first British artists to journey independently around Egypt, the Sinai, and the eastern Mediterranean. His views of Near Eastern cities and monuments were widely published in a series of lithographic prints. Roberts executed this sweeping panorama of Cairo during his six-week stay in the city from 1838 to 1839.

    18 TH AND 19 TH CENTURY DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS 2009 Guy Peppiatt started his working life at Dulwich Picture Gallery before joining Sotheby’s British Pictures department in 1993. He soon specialised in early British drawings and watercolours and took over the running of Sotheby’s Topographical and Travel sales. Topographical views, whether they be of Britain or worldwide, have remained an abiding passion. Guy left Sotheby’s in early 2004 and has worked as a dealer since then, first based at home, and now in his gallery on Mason’s Yard, St James’s, shared with the Old Master and European Drawings dealer Stephen Ongpin. He advises clients and museums on their collections, buys and sells on their behalf and can provide insurance valuations. 2 18 TH AND 19 TH CENTURY DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS 2009 Monday to Friday 10am to 6pm Weekends and evenings by appointment Guy Peppiatt Fine Art Ltd Riverwide House, 6 Mason’s Yard Duke Street, St James’s, London SW1Y 6BU Tel: [+44] (20) 7930 3839 Mobile: [+44] (0) 7956 968284 Fax: [+44] (20) 7839 1504 [email protected] www.peppiattfineart.co.uk 3 1 Samuel Hieronymous Grimm (1733-1794) Figures at the Well Signed lower right: S.H Grimm fecit 1772 Provenance: Pen and grey ink and watercolour on laid paper, with original pen and ink border, oval James Tobin until 1818; 23.8 by 31.2cm., 9 ¼ by 12 ½ in.
