Book Description
Excerpt from Memorials of William Mulready, R. A Satisfied that the life and works of Mulready reflected each other with unusual completeness, I have, in arranging the literary portion of these Memorials, endeavoured to show how much the one was the outcome of the other. Many readers may agree with this notion and be interested in it as a matter of study. If I am right, the illustrations of this book and the painters works at large, as well as the text before us imperfect as the last may be - present what is really a biography. Other readers may welcome the story of a man whose pictures all have admired, the most important of which are in the National Galleries. About one-fifth part of the text which follows here was, shortly after Mulready's death, published in 'The Fine Arts Quarterly Review.' Additions to, and revision of, what was then written, made this a new work, for the historical portion of which I am indebted to many of the oldest, most intimate, and most eminent of the painter's friends; to these the warmest thanks are due. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works.

Mysterious Wisdom
Author: Rachel Campbell-Johnston
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 0747595879
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
A devotee of the great visionary William Blake, Samuel Palmer became the lynchpin of the first British art movement. Leading a band of fellow artists - the brotherhood of Ancients - out of London to the village of Shoreham in Kent, he set out to create a new rural ideal. His paintings of slumbering shepherds and tumbling blossoms, of mystical cornfields and bright sickle moons, capture a world in which landscape and politics, religion and culture all meet. They reflect the concerns of the nineteenth century which his life spanned. In his day, like his mentor Blake, Samuel Palmer was much neglected. He did not attempt the grand dramas of J.M.W. Turner or follow John Constable's profoundly naturalistic path. But he belongs in their pantheon of great British Romantics as much for the numinous visions that are embodied in his loveliest paintings as for the vagaries of a life story in which he so often failed. If English tradition had ever encompassed the making of icons they would not have been so different from Palmer's enchanted landscapes. Mysterious Wisdom offers for the first time in more than thirty-five years a vivid and intimate portrait of Palmer who, over the course of the past century, has become increasingly treasured as one of the most extraordinarily talented and quirkily eccentric figures of the British art world, or - as the art historian Kenneth Clark believed - an English Van Gogh.
