This is a revised and greatly expanded edition of a book first published in 1964 by Phaidon Press, and it catalogues in detail over 350 pictures painted since c. 1600. It thus complements The Early Italian Pictures by John Shearman which was published by Cambridge in 1983. The catalogue includes the work of many great painters - Domenichino, Guercino, Guido Reni, Batoni, the two Ricci, Annibale Carracci, Zuccarelli and a famous, unrivalled group of paintings by Canaletto, most of which were commissioned directly from the artist by Joseph Smith and subsequently bought with the rest of his collection by George III. A long introduction traces the history from Charles I onwards of English royal interest in Italian pictures of the seventeenth- and eighteenth-centuries.

Berlinde De Bruyckere's work prompts the viewer to respond. That is why it has a particular appeal for writers of literature: they are fascinated by the compositions of distorted parts of humans and horses that refer to horror and comfort, to a cruel death and the sublime. De Bruyckere empties the bodies. Through holes, the public notices the darkness of a world inside that both appeals and repels. There is space around her work that resonates and in which writers can indulge in creativity -not by writing about objects, but by juxtaposing the work with creative texts. The author does not remove meanings of the work by trying to explain it, but rather adds to its meaning by responding to art with art. Nobel Prize winner J.M. Coetzee rises to this challenge: together with De Bruyckere he has chosen fragments from his impassioned and unsettling novels that are full of great beauty. Thus, the two present a composition of texts and images that from inside illuminates the dark world of their work.

Over the course of his long career, the Neapolitan painter Luca Giordano (1634-1705) engaged in a widespread enterprise of painting, becoming one of the most famed artists of his time, and the first Neapolitan painter to achieve international acclaim. His body of work offers a fascinating depth of artistic activity in which he moves fluidly across numerous styles and media with marked unconventionality. Looking at several prominent areas of his artistic output—including imitations, “fast” paintings, and paintings on glass that were sold on the market for the applied arts—this dissertation reconstructs how these unusual artistic modes were part of Giordano’s strategic drive for fame, and evidence of his market-driven approach to painting. Taking the economic and artistic life of Giordano as a case study, this dissertation analyzes the mechanics of attaining international success on the seventeenth-century art market, and explores how his works confront issues of technique, theories of artistic practice, patronage, and colonial exchange. ☐ The diversity of Giordano’s body of work serves as a valuable indicator of the vastness of the seicento art market and the varied collecting tastes of its patrons. In each chapter of this study, I show that Giordano cultivated a persona of an artist who specialized in the virtuosic mastery of difficult and wide ranging techniques, tailoring his output to fit the broad array of collecting interests that characterized seicento Europe. This is explored via analyses of Giordano’s specialization in rare types of skills, including painting with speed, mimicking a remarkable range of old masters and contemporaries, and becoming the most dominant producer of reverse paintings on glass. ☐ In exploring the unconventional means by which Giordano attained fame and built his reputation, this study illuminates the myriad ways in which an artist’s value was determined, and questions certain scholarly biases that have imposed a restrictive definition for what constituted artistic greatness in the seicento. The present study will offer insights into the strange and often-oversimplified artistic philosophy of Luca Giordano, demonstrating the ways that his distinctive career provides compelling new information about artistic celebrity, the market, and theoretical stances on speed and imitation. In doing so, it can be shown that Giordano’s fame was the product of an intelligently crafted marketing strategy, theatrical displays of virtuosity, and a tireless ambition to outdo his competition.

The story of the life and work of England's greatest essayist and key figure in Regency England. William Hazlitt is England's greatest essayist. He was also a philosopher, a painter, a controversialist and a radical, whose critical writings about literature, the theatre and art were ardently admired in his day. He is the author of the first confessional autobiography of sexual passion, a biographer of Napoleon, a friend of, and profound influence upon, Keats, Stendhal, and Charles Lamb, a friend and later enemy of Coleridge, Wordsworth, and De Quincy, and a key figure in the intellectual life of Regency England. His life was lived against the backdrop of the French Revolution and subsequent Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, with their associated political and literary radicalism in England.

The Getty Museum's collection of drawings was begun in 1981 with the purchase of a Rembrandt nude and has since become an important repository of European works from the fifteenth through the nineteenth century. As in the first volume devoted to the collection (published in 1988 in English and Italian editions), the text is here organized first by national school, then alphabetically by artist, with individual works arranged chronologically. For each drawing, the authors provide a discussion of the work's style, dating, iconography, and relationship to other works, as well as provenance and a complete bibliography.
