Charles Brooking 1723-1759
Author: David Joel
Publisher: ACC Distribution
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Charles Brooking is at the forefront of English marine painters, but since he died, aged thirty-six, in 1759, there was to be no recognition in his short life to justify his remarkable ability. He has probably produced the most atmospheric and beautiful marine paintings of all time. All his known pictures are illustrated and described in this much needed catalogue raisonn, together with all his known drawings and engravings. There is also a chapter on eighteenth century London marine engravers written by James Taylor, a curator at the National Maritime Museum. The book also describes the Dutch marine painters in the seventeenth century and shows how the English school developed following the Van de Veldes' work at Greenwich. This is the first book to cover fully eighteenth century British marine painters in general terms and Charles Brooking in particular. It is badly needed by scholars, collectors, sale rooms, museums and art galleries. 142 colour & 193 b/w illustrations

The Seaforth Bibliography
Author: Eugene Rasor
Publisher: Pen and Sword
ISBN: 1473812399
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 951
Book Description
This remarkable work is a comprehensive historiographical and bibliographical survey of the most important scholarly and printed materials about the naval and maritime history of England and Great Britain from the earliest times to 1815. More than 4,000 popular, standard and official histories, important articles in journals and periodicals, anthologies, conference, symposium and seminar papers, guides, documents and doctoral theses are covered so that the emphasis is the broadest possible. But the work is far, far more than a listing. The works are all evaluated, assessed and analysed and then integrated into an historical narrative that makes the book a hugely useful reference work for student, scholar, and enthusiast alike. It is divided into twenty-one chapters which cover resource centres, significant naval writers, pre-eminent and general histories, the chronological periods from Julius Caesar through the Vikings, Tudors and Stuarts to Nelson and Bligh, major naval personalities, warships, piracy, strategy and tactics, exploration, discovery and navigation, archaeology and even naval fiction. Quite simply, no-one with an interest and enthusiasm for naval history can afford to be without this book at their side.

Art, Science, and Diplomacy: A Study of the Visual Images of the Macartney Embassy to China, 1793
Author: Shanshan Chen
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9819911605
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
This book examines how the Embassy members approached, selected, and represented information, and how, in doing so, they helped to shape European perceptions of China. The Macartney Embassy of 1793 was the first British diplomatic mission to China, seeking to open ties between the two empires. As part of the mission, the British government commissioned writers and artists to chronicle the geography and culture of a civilization that had, until then, been shrouded in mystery. A central focus of the book is the artwork itself, which provides a window into the diplomatic, artistic and scientific viewpoints underlying the mission. Drawing on archival research, the study recreates the processes through which the Embassy’s draughtsmen, scientists, and diplomats collaborated to represent the visual images, and how the materials were reworked for publication in London. The finished product demonstrates that the artists offered a distinct viewpoint in the representation of China, sometimes differing from the textual accounts, by blending scientific elements and artistic aesthetics in order to demystify China and make it more knowable to a British audience. It was in the interposition of text and image that the British public formulated an ambivalent perception of China that embraced both admiration and disdain. In addition to the scholars, the book targets general readers who are interested in global art and history, and East–West interactions. It contains important images with detailed visual and historical analysis that enable readers to acquire knowledge on how the British represented China and how that image helped to shape the European perception of China during the British global expansion in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and beyond.
