Paperback. Condition: Fine. viii, 291 pages, illustrations (some colour); 27 cm. Perspectives on the Art and Architectural History of the United States Capitol Series. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "Like the ancient Roman Pantheon, the U.S. Capitol was designed by its political and aesthetic arbiters to memorialize the vi…rtues, events, and persons most representative of the nation's ideals--an attempt to raise a particular version of the nation's founding to the level of myth. American Pantheon examines the influences on not only those virtues and persons selected for inclusion in the American pantheon, but also those excluded. Two chapters address the exclusion of slavery and African Americans from the art in the Capitol, a silence made all the more deafening by the major contributions of slaves and free black workers to the construction of the building. Two other authors consider the subject of women emerging as artists, subjects, patrons, and proponents of art in the Capitol, a development that began only in the second half of the nineteenth century. The Rotunda, the Capitol's principal ceremonial space, was designed in part as an art museum of American history--at least the authorized version of it. It is explored in several of the essays, including discussions of the influence of the early-nineteenth-century Italian American artist Constantino Brumidi, and the mix of allegory, mythology, and history that permeates the space and indeed the Capitol itself" - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Pantheon on the Potomac: the architectural evolution of the Capitol rotunda, by William C. Allen; The Italian influence on American political iconography: the United States Capitol as lure and disseminator, by Pamela Potter-Hennessey; A new world pantheon: Italian sculptural contributions in the Capitol rotunda, by; Pamela Potter-Hennessey; Virtue and virtual reality in John Trumbull's "pantheon", by Irma B.

Hardcover. Condition: VG/VG, shows shelf wear. Black cloth, with gilt letters on spine; black and illus. dust jacket. 142 pp. 87 bw illus. The art of Paul Wayland Bartlett (1865-1925) and turn-of-the-century sculpture in general have been attracting increasing attention. A leading American sculptor of international reputation, B…artlett was one of the best-known artists in the United States. Bartlett's sculptural decoration for the House pediment at the U.S. Capitol Building was his most prestigious public monument and one of the most historically important federal commissions to be awarded in the United. States during the early twentieth century. Its installation in the long-vacant House pediment finally brought to completion a project of Capitol expansion that had begun more than a half-century earlier. As such, it provides a valuable opportunity for exploring the early development of government-sponsored public sculpture in the United States. Unveiled just eight months prior to U.S. entry into World war I, the pediment also represents one of the most visible public. Expressions of the ideals of the late American Renaissance (1876-1917).
