Five Centuries of British Painting: From Holbein to Hodgkin (ISBN: 9780500203491) Wilton, Andrew Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Thames & Hudson. 1 Paperback(s), 2001. soft. Book Condition: New. Britain has played a key role in the history of the last five centuries, and its art reflects this in intriguing and complex ways, posits Andrew Wilton, a Keeper and senior research fellow at the Tate Britain museum. In this book, richly illustrated with 183 color and black and white reproductions, he traces the story of British painting from its hesitant beginnings under the influence of 16th-century German artist Hans Holbein the Younger through its maturity in the 18th century with William Hogarth and Joshua Reynolds, reflecting Britain's prosperity and growing imperial influence. Moving on through the Romantic period of John Constable and J.M.W. Turner and the Victorian conflict between morality and scientific advancement, up to the modern day, Wilton finds a consistent preference in Britain for the real world (landscape and portraiture) as opposed to "high art" and abstraction. 256.

Book Description: Thames Hudson Ltd, United Kingdom, 2002. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 210 x 150 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Britain has played a key role in the history of the last five centuries, and its art reflects this in absorbing but complex ways. At first, foreign artists and influences were dominant - for example, Holbein, Van Dyck, Lely and Kneller. In the century of Hogarth, Reynolds and Gainsborough, British painting reflected an increasingly confident society, propelled by Imperialist expansion and industrial advance. Constable and Turner were among many pioneers in the artistic revolutions of the Romantic period, when British influence extended across Europe. The Victorian age saw the moral dilemmas, reflected in art, of Christian values challenged by science. A consistent undercurrent has been Britain's preference for the real world (landscape and portraiture) as against "high" art and abstraction. This is a survey of the personalities of British painting and an assessment of the latest flowering in which many threads of modern art come together.
