  • Classical Nakedness in British Sculpture and Historical Painting 1798-1840 Cora Hatshepsut Gilroy-Ware Ph.D Univ
    MARMOREALITIES: CLASSICAL NAKEDNESS IN BRITISH SCULPTURE AND HISTORICAL PAINTING 1798-1840 CORA HATSHEPSUT GILROY-WARE PH.D UNIVERSITY OF YORK HISTORY OF ART SEPTEMBER 2013 ABSTRACT Exploring the fortunes of naked Graeco-Roman corporealities in British art achieved between 1798 and 1840, this study looks at the ideal body’s evolution from a site of ideological significance to a form designed consciously to evade political meaning. While the ways in which the incorporation of antiquity into the French Revolutionary project forged a new kind of investment in the classical world have been well-documented, the drastic effects of the Revolution in terms of this particular cultural formation have remained largely unexamined in the context of British sculpture and historical painting. By 1820, a reaction against ideal forms and their ubiquitous presence during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wartime becomes commonplace in British cultural criticism. Taking shape in a series of chronological case-studies each centring on some of the nation’s most conspicuous artists during the period, this thesis navigates the causes and effects of this backlash, beginning with a state-funded marble monument to a fallen naval captain produced in 1798-1803 by the actively radical sculptor Thomas Banks. The next four chapters focus on distinct manifestations of classical nakedness by Benjamin West, Benjamin Robert Haydon, Thomas Stothard together with Richard Westall, and Henry Howard together with John Gibson and Richard James Wyatt, mapping what I identify as

  • John Vanderbank, Was the Son of a Tapestry Weaver of Dutch Origins
    Neil Jeffares, Dictionary of pastellists before 1800 Online edition VANDERBANK, John London 9.IX.1694–23.XII.1739 Johann van der Banck, known as John Vanderbank, was the son of a tapestry weaver of Dutch origins. From 1711 he was a pupil at Kneller’s academy, but in 1720 he joined Louis Chéron (q.v.) in establishing the first St Martin’s Lane academy; there were 33 subscribers, including established artists such as Louis Laguerre, William Kent and Giuseppe Grisoni; younger artists included Joseph Highmore, Bartholomew Dandridge, George Knapton and William Hogarth, with Arthur Pond one of the youngest and least prepared. Leading an extravagant lifestyle, Vanderbank was forced to quit England in 1724 to avoid his creditors, but returned by 1727 and resumed his career as a history painter, portraitist and illustrator. On 23.VI.1737 he took on John Robinson as an apprentice for five years for a premium of £157 10s. He normally worked in oil but produced many drawings; however virtually no pastels survive. His painting technique has been described as “lively”, in the sense of a Hogarthian lack of finish; the portraits are brightly, sometimes crudely lit. Bibliography Bénézit, s.v.

We’ve been featured on radio and in the newspapers. And the public continues to flock through the doors of our headquarters when we have open house days. Visitors enjoying an Open House Tour at the GAC’s premises We continue to make our resources stretch as far as they can. The Director’s report highlights some of the exciting and important works which we have been able to acquire over the last year. This continues the GAC’s track record of making acquisitions by British artists of the highest calibre, fulfilling its role in promoting British art by displaying it in Government buildings in the UK and abroad. The Collection plays a vital part in Britain’s representation abroad: both as a reminder of our historical past and an illustration of our contemporary preoccupations.
