The National Gallery and the Art Trade

The National Gallery was in a very poor way a hundred or so years ago. 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.

COROT TO MONET A FRESH LOOK AT LANDSCAPE FROM THE COLLECTION SAINSBURY WING, 8 JULY–20 SEPTEMBER 2009

During Master Paintings Week, a new exhibition opens at the National Gallery that draws on the Gallery’s rich collection of 19th-century French landscapes. 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.
