Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth study of John Singleton Copley by examining his signed and dated pictures. The book offers corrections to earlier accounts of his artistic journey, arguing that he had artistic training in his younger years, contradicting commonly held beliefs that his instruction was exclusively self-directed. The book places Copley's artistic growth within the context of the art scene in Boston at the time, revealing the vibrant cultural environment he was immersed in and examining his artistic development through the lens of his pictorial style and subject matter over time. The book not only contributes to a richer understanding of Copley's artistic evolution as an American artist who later gained renown in England but also sheds light on the broader artistic and cultural milieu of Boston in the 18th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Condition: Good. Original lithograph. 10 x 12.5 inches. Very Good. Minor spots of foxing. Inserted into light matting. Published 1 February 1830.Sitters: John Singleton Copley, Baron Lyndhurst (1772-1863), Lord Chancellor and politician; son of the painter John Singleton Copley. Sir Robert Peel, 2nd Bt (1788-1850), Prime Minister. Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington (1769-1852), Field Marshal and Prime Minister.John Doyle (Dublin 1797 - 2 January 1868 London), known by the pen name H. B., was a political cartoonist, caricaturist, painter and lithographer.In his youth he learned to paint landscapes under Gaspare Gabrielli, and miniature portraits at the Royal Dublin Society's drawing school under John Comerfield. He won a gold medal in 1805. He was commissioned to paint equestrian portraits of the Marquess of Sligo and Lord Talbot, the Irish viceroy, and in 1822 he produced six prints entitled The Life of a Racehorse. That year he moved to London with his wife, Marianna Conan. His painting Turning out the Stag brought him recognition when it was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1825.Doyle continued to exhibit miniatures until 1835, but by then he was experiencing greater success with his political cartoons, printed using the new reproductive medium of lithography, beginning in 1827. These were issued once a month during parliamentary sessions, and continued for twenty-two years. His caricatures were mostly faithful likenesses of their subjects, with little exaggeration, treated with sarcastic humor, often alluding to popular plays. They were signed with the letters H. B., constructed out of two Js and two Ds, Doyle's own initials. By 1840 he was prosperous enough to afford a fashionable house in Hyde Park, moving in the same circles as David Wilkie, Walter Scott, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Charles Dickens, William Makepeace Thackeray, Thomas Macaulay, Thomas Moore and Samuel Rogers - but H. B.'s true identity remained a closely guarded secret until he revealed it in 1843 in a seventeen-page letter to Sir Robert Peel.In the 1840s, at the height of his popularity, indices of H.B.'s prints were published in The Times and by the publisher McLean, but his reputation faded. His later prints were gentle in their humor and drawn in a soft, indistinct style. Thackeray said his cartoons, although clever and witty, were too "genteel" to raise more than a gentlemanly smile - "You will never hear any laughing at 'H. B.'" When he died in 1868, his obituary in The Art Journal did not appear until three months after his death, and a posthumous sale of his sketches at Christie's in 1882 was canceled for lack of buyers. However, he is considered a founder of the school of British cartoon satirists represented by John Leech, John Tenniel, and his son Richard Doyle, which established the style made famous by Punch magazine. The British Museum has over 900 of his drawings in its collections.
