LONDON GEORGE BELL S O NS 1 8 9 9 PRE FA C E THE RE is no intention to give in these pages anything approaching a detailed personal history of Sir John i ai f s of M ll s, or to treat at any length the act his private f h life. Such matters are better le t to the biographers w o deal with the man and desire to draw a portrait of him ff of as he lived . What is o ered here is an appreciation i s art of hi s t of th e h influence upon the time, an estima e of ae value his intervention, as an artist, in the sthetic movements that marked the years over whi ch his career f extended . There ore only those personal details have been included which are important because they have f s s h some bearing upon his pro es ional progre s, or ave helped to confirm him in a preference for a particular of line action . In th e case of Sir John Millais this separation of the r f e a tist rom the man is the easier, becaus , admirable and n f si cere though he was in his devotion to his pro ession, his he did not make it sole interest ; but, outside his f and studio, threw himsel into the occupations amuse s t of and ment hat are dear to every man robust vitality, are expres sive of physical inclinations rather than in tellectual f s . O gi t ur concern is with him as a worker, as one of the greatest painters that the British School has known ; and it is only incidentally nec essary to refer ' to his domestic aflairs when they happen to explain significantly how far his private pursuits aided in keep of ing up the splendid virility his art. His pictures and drawings are the essential facts that have called for consideration, because by them his place in history is vi PREFACE fixed ; and as a commentary on them this book must be read. r has of Fo tunately it been possible, by the courtesy the of of owners the copyrights his pictures, to summarise pictorially the many phases of his practice at the various of f far as stages his working li e, and to hint, as may be t t - - done wi h reproduc ions in black and white, at the great of of art ness his artistic ability . All sides his are s of his t i s illu trated, and the evidence given versa ility v comprehensi e and intelligible. Sincere acknowledgment of very valuable ass istance of in the preparation the letterpress is due to Mr M . H . of Spielmann, who has also allowed the use his exhaustive ’ of was list the artist s pictures, which compiled originally for his s o book, Millais and his Work and to Mr Ge rge Allen, by whose permission appear certain quotations from the writings of Mr Ruskin which have a particular f e f f s re erence to th per ormance o Sir John Millai .

  • Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) Had Only Seven Members but Influenced Many Other Artists
    1 • Of course, their patrons, largely the middle-class themselves form different groups and each member of the PRB appealed to different types of buyers but together they created a stronger brand. In fact, they differed from a boy band as they created works that were bought independently. As well as their overall PRB brand each created an individual brand (sub-cognitive branding) that convinced the buyer they were making a wise investment. • Millais could be trusted as he was a born artist, an honest Englishman and made an ARA in 1853 and later RA (and President just before he died). • Hunt could be trusted as an investment as he was serious, had religious convictions and worked hard at everything he did. • Rossetti was a typical unreliable Romantic image of the artist so buying one of his paintings was a wise investment as you were buying the work of a ‘real artist’. 2 • The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) had only seven members but influenced many other artists. • Those most closely associated with the PRB were Ford Madox Brown (who was seven years older), Elizabeth Siddal (who died in 1862) and Walter Deverell (who died in 1854). • Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris were about five years younger. They met at Oxford and were influenced by Rossetti. I will discuss them more fully when I cover the Arts & Crafts Movement. • There were many other artists influenced by the PRB including, • John Brett, who was influenced by John Ruskin, • Arthur Hughes, a successful artist best known for April Love, • Henry Wallis, an artist who is best known for The Death of Chatterton (1856) and The Stonebreaker (1858), • William Dyce, who influenced the Pre-Raphaelites and whose Pegwell Bay is untypical but the most Pre-Raphaelite in style of his works.

Downloaded from PRISM: https://prism.ucalgary.ca UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY Not as She is: A Novel About Elizabeth Siddal by Emily Ursuliak A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH CALGARY, ALBERTA SEPTEMBER, 2013 © Emily Ursuliak 2013 Abstract This novel follows in the feminist tradition of reclaiming female artists who have been overlooked, or misrepresented. Not as She is centers around Elizabeth Siddal, a Victorian-era artist, known for her connections with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB), but also a worthy artist in her own right. Siddal is often viewed by traditional art historians as a hysterical, laudanum-addicted muse, but the fictional representation of her life found in this novel provides a more complex account. By using first person and second person points of view in present tense, the reader is given a more vivid version of Siddal as she struggles with her addiction to laudanum, becomes absorbed in the process of creating art and lives her daily life.

  • The Looking-Glass World: Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting 1850-1915
    THE LOOKING-GLASS WORLD Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting, 1850-1915 TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I Claire Elizabeth Yearwood Ph.D. University of York History of Art October 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the role of mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite painting as a significant motif that ultimately contributes to the on-going discussion surrounding the problematic PRB label. With varying stylistic objectives that often appear contradictory, as well as the disbandment of the original Brotherhood a few short years after it formed, defining ‘Pre-Raphaelite’ as a style remains an intriguing puzzle. In spite of recurring frequently in the works of the Pre-Raphaelites, particularly in those by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, the mirror has not been thoroughly investigated before. Instead, the use of the mirror is typically mentioned briefly within the larger structure of analysis and most often referred to as a quotation of Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait (1434) or as a symbol of vanity without giving further thought to the connotations of the mirror as a distinguishing mark of the movement. I argue for an analysis of the mirror both within the context of iconographic exchange between the original leaders and their later associates and followers, and also that of nineteenth- century glass production. The Pre-Raphaelite use of the mirror establishes a complex iconography that effectively remytholgises an industrial object, conflates contradictory elements of past and present, spiritual and physical, and contributes to a specific artistic dialogue between the disparate strands of the movement that anchors the problematic PRB label within a context of iconographic exchange.

  • Movie Remakes and Adaptations Can Land Movies in Copyright Lawsuits
    Law Firm Newswire Attorney Press Releases and Legal News http://www.lawfirmnewswire.com Movie Remakes and Adaptations Can Land Movies in Copyright Lawsuits Los Angeles, CA (Law Firm Newswire) November 28, 2011 - Movie remakes and new interpretations happen all the time. But such popular topics should not detract from thoroughly researching copyrights, examining how a new work meets fair use laws, and seeking to enter into any appropriate licenses and/or contracts that are needed to ensure the production can continue on. Otherwise, a movie studio, director, and other relevant parties can be subject to litigation during filming, or even worse, after profits have started to come in. In the current case of Effie Film LLC v Gregory Murphy, Effie Film wanted to ensure that Emma Thompson’s script did not infringe on Murphy’s play, “The Countess,” about the love scandal between art critic John Ruskin, his wife Effie Gray, and the painter John Everett Millais in 19th century England. Effie Film sued Murphy to obtain a declaration that the script had no copyright issues. Then, Effie Film also sued Eve Pomerance, who has a screenplay, “The Secret Trials of Effie Gray.” Anthony Spotora “It is smart to be proactive before a film gets completed and preemptively seek a resolution,” said Los Angeles copyright attorney Anthony Spotora, who is also a Los Angeles entertainment attorney. “A film’s financing, distribution, and other key business transactions can rest on the validity of the film’s originality, which obviously includes its copyright and intellectual property assets.” Acquiring and clearing copyrights is a pivotal, initial step in the movie-making process.
