Excerpt from The Artist's Repository, or Encyclopedia of the Fine Arts, Vol. 4: Dictionary and History of Art In London there have been for many years academical Institutions, in which living models have been selected for the study of the naked; originally in a more confined manner, at the academy in St. Martin's Lane; afterwards, when the Royal Incorporated Society of Artists of Great Britain obtained his Majesty's charter, they had a more considerable academy, and some public lectures: to these succeeded the Royal Academy. The principal studies in an academy usually are, Design, which is practised first from plaster models, casts from the best antiques, &c. which is generally the first school: and after the student has acquired a facility in treating these subjects, the living model is his next study. Anatomy, in its relation to art, is usually taught by some eminent surgeon. The other professors, such as of architecture, painting, sculpture, &c. are commonly members of the academy, and deliver lectures in their turns. The Royal Academy of London consists of forty academicians, painters, sculptors, or architects; twenty associates; and six associate engravers, who are incapable of offices, and of voting. The Officers are a president, council, consisting of eight members, four of whom go out by rotation, yearly; and who at each meeting receive two pounds five shillings, equally divided among them, or are fined for non-attendance. The whole body of the academicians meet once a year, to adjudge premiums, &c. and each receives five shillings for his attendance. There is also a secretary, who has apartment, in Somerset House, and a salary of 6ol. per annum; a keeper, who has apartments, and a salary of 10ol per annum, who superintends the academy; a treasurer, salary 6ol. per annum; librariin, salary 5ol.

Explores modernist aesthetics and cultural exchange in Britain, France and beyond Offers cutting-edge explorations of different aspects of artistic exchange between Britain and France, written by experts on both sides of the ChannelProvides original close readings of canonical and marginalised modernist textsOpens up new conceptual paradigms by probing multiple meanings related to 'crossing' and 'channelling' modernismOrganises chapters around three key themes of 'translating', 'fashioning', 'mediating' that intervene in the new modernist studiesDescribed by Katherine Mansfield in 1921 as 'a great cold sword between you and your dear love Adventure', in the early twentieth century the English Channel, or 'La Manche' in French, represented both a political and intellectual barrier between European avant-gardism and British restraint, and a bridge for cultural connection and aesthetic innovation. Organised around key terms 'Translating', 'Fashioning' and 'Mediating', this book presents ten original essays by scholars working on both sides of the Channel. Cross-Channel Modernisms historicises artistic exchangesa ina Britain, France and beyond and proposes a rich conceptual apparatus of 'crossings' and 'channels' through which we can read modernism and understand it as emerging from, and intervening in, an always-already shifting, multivalent,a internationala context.

Major art movements and artists of 19th-century Europe, from the French Revolution to World War I, are presented alphabetically in a dictionary format. Artists and art movements are integrated within the politics and culture of the times. An examination of the prominent authors, politicians, rulers, writers and musicians, who often posed for artists provides an historical background against which to study these famous, obscure, traditional and avant-garde artists. Entries include the artists' models, many of whom became romantically involved with the artists, and the artworks in which the models appear. This focus on the European continent, rather than on one specific country, surveys the interconnected influences and politics that pervaded the lives of the artists during this age when Europe was powerful culturally and politically, and helps to explain the various art movements, such as the Neo-Classical, Romantic, Realist, Impressionist, Fauvist, Cubist, Expressionist and Abstract, that consequently evolved.
