Softcover. Condition: Very Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice book in great condition. Pages in excellent condition. Softcover. English. Pub Year 1999, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Paint and Purpose: A Study of Technique Over Four Centuries of British Art by Stephen Hackney explores the intricate rela…tionship between materials and artistic expression in British painting. Drawing on extensive research from the Tate Conservation Department, this book examines various artworks created between 1594 and 1958, including portraits, landscapes, and allegorical pieces. The focus is on paintings executed with traditional media such as oils, egg, glues, gums, and waxes, deliberately excluding synthetic materials like acrylic for consideration in a future publication.Hackney emphasises that while the historical study of techniques has flourished, it often lacks a rich comparative framework for analysing artists and their national schools. Thus, this volume avoids presenting a chronological history of British painting techniques. Instead, it centres on individual artists and their unique approaches to materials, akin to letters of the alphabet that can be rearranged in infinite combinations. Artists featured include notable figures such as Whistler, Sargent, Gainsborough, Turner, and Reynolds, among others.The chapters offer insights into the technical details of specific paintings while recognising the need for more comprehensive analysis in the future. Hackney notes that understanding the techniques and materials behind individual works enhances the appreciation of the aesthetic experience, contributing to art history's evolving narrative. As conservation efforts continue, each new addition to the Tate collection not only requires an art historical catalogue entry but also a detailed technical assessment, paving the way for deeper understanding and potential future explorations in art analysis.

Paperback. Condition: New. Throughout its long history in Western art, canvas has played an influential role in the creative process. From the Renaissancedevelopment of oil painting on canvas to the present day-through Impressionism, Abstract Expressionism, and other art historical movements-the use of canvas has enhanced the sc…ale of painting, freedom of brushwork, and spontaneity in technique. This book recounts some of that rich history in relation to corresponding developments in conservation practice.Rather than concentrating on the familiar concerns of cleaning and varnish removal, this volume considers the preservation of a painting's structure. By focusing on recent studies on the fundamental nature of canvas and its mechanisms of deterioration, the book explains new approaches to the conservation of both contemporary and historical art-including reversible, passive, and preventive treatments, particularly with respect to lining. Written by Stephen Hackney, a conservation practitioner and leader in conservation research, On Canvas is the first book to take a comprehensive look at this important subject and is destined to become an invaluable resource for the field.
