Its trustees, several of whom were selling Old Master paintings of their own, and a couple of whom were actively buying them for their own collections, took so little interest in acquiring work for the Gallery that the Director was hardly able to persuade them to travel to Cobham Hall to form an opinion on the eligibility of the Earl of Darnley’s portrait of a man with a quilted sleeve by Titian. Among the many supporters of the Gallery who were dismayed by this state of affairs were some of London’s art dealers, among them Sir George Donaldson. He had been knighted for his support of musical education, the chief area of his philanthropy. When the trustees failed to make a reasonable offer in the time allowed them, the Titian was bought by Sir George and held, at the Director’s request, until the trustees came to their senses, prodded by London’s leading connoisseurs and amateurs, whose chief organs were the newly founded National Art Collections Fund and The Burlington Magazine, and the Director was able to raise funds from private individuals. So Donaldson really acted as a one man Export Reviewing Committee long in advance of the establishment of that official device. In the last decades of the twentieth century, it would perhaps be the proceedings of that Committee which best dramatised the conflict of interest between the national institutions and the art trade. But to an unprejudiced investigator familiar with the situation in other European countries, the single most remarkable feature of those proceedings would surely be how prepared to collaborate and eager to help the art dealers so often were. Donaldson’s generosity to the National Gallery was demonstrated by a gift, made in the same year (1904), one of the most remarkable that the National Gallery has ever received – that of Goya’s portrait of Don Andrés del Peral. This painting is breathtaking in its silver greys against deep black. Form emerges from rapid brushwork, and with form, a remarkable expression and memorable personality, at once vulnerable and challenging. It is one of Goya’s greatest portraits, executed at the height of his powers. Goya had risen rather suddenly in the esteem of collectors and connoisseurs. To own such a painting at that date was to know that it would increase in value at a sharp rate, especially because of the interest in Spanish art which was growing among the major collectors in New York. But Donaldson’s thought was that this should go to the National Gallery before it was too late. He knew that Goya was too recent an artist to be a high priority for the trustees. Donaldson was not the only art dealer to whom the National Gallery has reason to be grateful. The assistance provided by the firm of Thomas Agnew and Sons in numerous transactions of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries is especially notable. And, when the story is told of the part that Joseph Duveen played in selling national treasures abroad, it is seldom emphasised how much London institutions owe to his munificence. It was he, the dealer, not Benson who offered the Gallery a great painting from Benson’s collection of Italian Renaissance masterpieces – and yet Benson was a Trustee of the National Gallery. I have dwelt on the emergencies of a hundred years ago and do not wish to discuss here the relationships – although they have often been exceptionally cordial – between the National Gallery and London’s art dealers in recent decades except to say that I deeply appreciate the generous support given by so many to the campaign conducted by the National Galleries of Scotland and the National Gallery to acquire Titian’s Diana and Actaeon and to secure the future of the Bridgewater loan. The stimulus given to the interest in Old Master paintings by the initiative of Master Paintings Week is something we welcome very warmly and our doors are open together with those of all commercial galleries collaborating in the venture.

Featuring all the major artists of the genre, Corot to Monet charts the development of plein-air landscape painting from the late 18th century to the first Impressionist exhibition in 1874. Opening with scenes by Corot, Simon Denis and Valenciennes of the Roman Campagna and other picturesque locations, such as Tivoli, before moving to France and works by the Barbizon School, the exhibition provides an opportunity to study the landscapes that were vital to the later development of Impressionism. Early works by Monet, including his Beach at Trouville, will be displayed alongside the beach scenes of Eugène Boudin and late works by Corot. 8 Grafton Street Thos.

  • St James Conservation Area Audit
    ST JAMES’S 17 CONSERVATION AREA AUDIT AREA CONSERVATION Document Title: St James Conservation Area Audit Status: Adopted Supplementary Planning Guidance Document ID No.: 2471 This report is based on a draft prepared by B D P. Following a consultation programme undertaken by the council it was adopted as Supplementary Planning Guidance by the Cabinet Member for City Development on 27 November 2002. Published December 2002 © Westminster City Council Department of Planning & Transportation, Development Planning Services, City Hall, 64 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6QP www.westminster.gov.uk PREFACE Since the designation of the first conservation areas in 1967 the City Council has undertaken a comprehensive programme of conservation area designation, extensions and policy development. There are now 53 conservation areas in Westminster, covering 76% of the City. These conservation areas are the subject of detailed policies in the Unitary Development Plan and in Supplementary Planning Guidance. In addition to the basic activity of designation and the formulation of general policy, the City Council is required to undertake conservation area appraisals and to devise local policies in order to protect the unique character of each area. Although this process was first undertaken with the various designation reports, more recent national guidance (as found in Planning Policy Guidance Note 15 and the English Heritage Conservation Area Practice and Conservation Area Appraisal documents) requires detailed appraisals of each conservation area in the form of formally approved and published documents. This enhanced process involves the review of original designation procedures and boundaries; analysis of historical development; identification of all listed buildings and those unlisted buildings making a positive contribution to an area; and the identification and description of key townscape features, including street patterns, trees, open spaces and building types.

  • THE POWER of BEAUTY in RESTORATION ENGLAND Dr
    THE POWER OF BEAUTY IN RESTORATION ENGLAND Dr. Laurence Shafe [email protected] THE WINDSOR BEAUTIES www.shafe.uk • It is 1660, the English Civil War is over and the experiment with the Commonwealth has left the country disorientated. When Charles II was invited back to England as King he brought new French styles and sexual conduct with him. In particular, he introduced the French idea of the publically accepted mistress. Beautiful women who could catch the King’s eye and become his mistress found that this brought great wealth, titles and power. Some historians think their power has been exaggerated but everyone agrees they could influence appointments at Court and at least proposition the King for political change. • The new freedoms introduced by the Reformation Court spread through society. Women could appear on stage for the first time, write books and Margaret Cavendish was the first British scientist. However, it was a totally male dominated society and so these heroic women had to fight against established norms and laws. Notes • The Restoration followed a turbulent twenty years that included three English Civil Wars (1642-46, 1648-9 and 1649-51), the execution of Charles I in 1649, the Commonwealth of England (1649-53) and the Protectorate (1653-59) under Oliver Cromwell’s (1599-1658) personal rule. • Following the Restoration of the Stuarts, a small number of court mistresses and beauties are renowned for their influence over Charles II and his courtiers. They were immortalised by Sir Peter Lely as the ‘Windsor Beauties’. Today, I will talk about Charles II and his mistresses, Peter Lely and those portraits as well as another set of portraits known as the ‘Hampton Court Beauties’ which were painted by Godfrey Kneller (1646-1723) during the reign of William III and Mary II.

  • The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain
    Crossing the Channel: The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain By Catherine Cheney Senior Honors Thesis Department of Art History University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 8, 2016 Approved: 1 Introduction: French Impressionism in England As Impressionism spread throughout Europe in the late nineteenth century, the movement took hold in the British art community and helped to change the fundamental ways in which people viewed and collected art. Impressionism made its debut in London in 1870 when Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Paul Durand-Ruel sought safe haven in London during the Franco- Prussian war. The two artists created works of London landscapes done in the new Impressionist style. Paul Durand-Ruel, a commercial dealer, marketed the Impressionist works of these two artists and of the other Impressionist artists that he brought over from Paris. The movement was officially organized for the First Impressionist Exhibition in 1874 in Paris, but the initial introduction in London laid the groundwork for promoting this new style throughout the international art world. This thesis will explore, first, the cultural transformations of London that allowed for the introduction of Impressionism as a new style in England; second, the now- famous Thames series that Monet created in the 1890s and notable exhibitions held in London during the time; and finally, the impact Impressionism had on private collectors and adding Impressionist works to the national collections. With the exception of Edouard Manet, who met with success at the Salon in Paris over the years and did not exhibit with the Impressionists, the modern artists were not received well.

It was one of the streets that Charles Dickens has written about and named it as ‘the Devil’s acre’. However it has since become the epicentre of the British political establishment, situated as it is, literally a stone’s throw from the Houses of Parliament. Architecturally, the area in which Great Peter Street sits has quintessen- tially been described as ‘the essence of Old Westminster’. This exceptional location is surrounded by Grade II listed houses from the 1700s. The building itself is a homage to Georgian architecture and also it is prevalent in the area.
