To the listener’s delight, however, he also his life, White has paired his fortuitous birth into a family of painters and shares funny and insightful stories about the artists’ personalities, life dramas, art historians, with indefatigable energy and drive. White has, quite simply, and quirky circumstances. applied himself with abandon to his craft since 1955. Following a rigorous weekly schedule of study, studio painting, and regular plein air painting trip, White’s fortitude is admirable, as few painters with his success and experience few painters (of any age) could keep up with him even today.

  • PRE-RAPHAELITES: DRAWINGS and WATERCOLOURS Opening Spring 2021, (Dates to Be Announced)
    PRESS RELEASE 5 February 2021 for immediate release: PRE-RAPHAELITES: DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS Opening Spring 2021, (dates to be announced) Following the dramatic events of 2020 and significant re-scheduling of exhibition programmes, the Ashmolean is delighted to announce a new exhibition for spring 2021: Pre-Raphaelites: Drawings and Watercolours. With international loans prevented by safety and travel restrictions, the Ashmolean is hugely privileged to be able to draw on its superlative permanent collections. Few people have examined the large number of Pre-Raphaelite works on paper held in the Western Art Print Room. Even enthusiasts and scholars have rarely looked at more than a selection. This exhibition makes it possible to see a wide range of these fragile works together for the first time. They offer an intimate and rare glimpse into the world of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the artists associated with the movement. The exhibition includes works of extraordinary beauty, from the portraits they made of each other, studies for paintings and commissions, to subjects taken from history, literature and landscape. Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882) In 1848 seven young artists, including John Everett Millais, William The Day Dream, 1872–8 Holman Hunt and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, resolved to rebel against the Pastel and black chalk on tinted paper, 104.8 academic teaching of the Royal Academy of Arts.

I was twenty-four and travelled down to Italy by myself on the train. I took the cheapest lodgings available in Florence: a dormitory in a sort of convent, Pio X, in Via dei Serragli. The room was big and very cold, with numerous beds. It was 1,000lire a night. I think the Pensionato Pio X is still there… 4/98 Two girls in the dormitory got up early every morning and ran out hastily, which made me wonder where they were off to, in such a hurry. When I asked, they told me they were going to Studio Simi. I explained that I was an art student too, and asked if I could come and have a look at this …Studio Simi. An appointment was made for 12 o’clock, at the end of the morning pose.

The thesis goes beyond the similarity of the shared name of the two monarchs; it shows the major changes not only in the way of portraying a queen but also in the way in which the public has changed its perception of the monarch and of the monarchy. Elizabeth I aimed to unite a nation by focusing the eye upon herself, while Elizabeth II triumphed through humanity and informality.

  • Press Release Pre-Raphaelites on Paper, Leighton House Museum
    PRESS RELEASE Pre-Raphaelites on Paper: Victorian Drawings from the Lanigan Collection An exhibition at Leighton House Museum organised by the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa 12 Feb 2016 – 29 May 2016 Press Preview 11 Feb 2016 Pre-Raphaelites on Paper: Victorian Drawings from the Lanigan Collection will be the first exhibition opening at Leighton House Museum in 2016, presenting an exceptional, privately- assembled collection to the UK public for the first time. Featuring over 100 drawings and sketches by the Pre- Raphaelites and their contemporaries, the exhibition is organised by the National Gallery of Canada (NGC). It expresses the richness and flair of British draftsmanship during the Victorian era displayed in the unique setting of the opulent home and studio of artist and President of the Royal Academy (PRA) Frederic, Lord Leighton. From preparatory sketches to highly finished drawings intended as works of art in themselves, visitors will discover the diverse ways that Victorian artists used drawing to further their artistic practice, creating, as they did so, images of great beauty and accomplishment. Portraits, landscapes, allegories and scenes from religious and literary works are all represented in the exhibition including studies for some of the most well-known paintings of the era such as Edward Burne- Jones’ The Wheel of Fortune (1883), Holman Hunt’s Eve of St Agnes (1848) and Leighton’s Cymon and Iphigenia (1884). With the exception of Leighton’s painting studio, the permanent collection will be cleared from Leighton House and the drawings hung throughout the historic interiors. This outstanding collection, brought together over a 30-year period by Canadian Dr.

Mazzulli, Doric Docents, Inc. for the Italian-American Heritage Month Committee All photographs courtesy Massachusetts Art Commission. Fifth ed., © 2008 Docents R IL CONSOLE GENERALE D’ITALIA BOSTON On the occasion of the latest edition of the booklet “Italy Under the Golden Dome,” I would like to congratulate the October Italian Heritage Month Committee for making it available, once again, to all those interested to learn about the wonderful contributions that Italian artists have made to the State House of Massachusetts. In this regard I would also like to avail myself of this opportunity, if I may, to commend the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Hon. William F. Galvin, for the cooperation that he has graciously extended to the Committee in this particular endeavor. Italians and Italian Americans are rightly proud of the many extraordinary works of art that decorate the State House, works that are either made by Italian artists or inspired by the Italian tradition in the field of art and architecture. It is therefore particularly fitting that the October Italian Heritage Month Committee has taken upon itself the task of celebrating this unique contribution that Italians have made to the history of Massachusetts. Consul General of Italy, Boston OCTOBER IS ITALIAN-AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH On behalf of the Committee to Observe October as Italian-American Heritage Month, we are pleased and honored that Secretary William Galvin, in cooperation with the Massachusetts Art Commission and the Doric Docents of the Massachusetts State House, has agreed to publish this edition of the Guide.

  • Newcastle at Night from the Rabbit Banks, Gateshead Watercolour
    George Price BOYCE (London 1826 - London 1897) Newcastle at Night from the Rabbit Banks, Gateshead Watercolour. Signed and dated G. P. Boyce 64 at the lower right. Further inscribed Newcastle at night – from the Rabbit Banks, Gateshead / GPBoyce 1864 on the verso. Inscribed Newcastle looking towards / Gateshead / from the / Rabbit Banks. / by G. P. BOYCE / 1864 on an old label on the backing board. Further inscribed Mrs. Hueffer / The Lodge / Campden Hill Road on the backing board. 101 x 209 mm. (4 x 8 1/4 in.) ACQUIRED BY THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART, NEW YORK. This watercolour dates to a trip made by Boyce to the north east of England in the late summer and autumn of 1864. The scene depicted is a distant view of Newcastle, seen from across the river Tyne at Gateshead, with the prominent tower of the cathedral of St. Nicholas barely visible at the left of centre. The steeply sloping Rabbit Banks from which Boyce made this watercolour has long since been built over, and may today be identified with Pipewellgate in the area of Bensham in Gateshead. It has been suggested that the artist may have been encouraged to visit the industrial landscapes around Newcastle-upon-Tyne, with a view towards finding potential subjects for his watercolours, by the ironmaster Isaac Lowthian Bell, who had purchased several works from the artist earlier in the year. As well as a number of smaller works, Boyce’s trip resulted in at least two large finished watercolours; a view of Newcastle from the Windmill Hills, Gateshead in the collection of the Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle, and another, larger version of the present composition of Newcastle from the Rabbit Banks, Gateshead - depicted in daylight and with the addition of a sleeping figure in the left foreground - which appeared at auction in 1995.
