Twelve days after the onset of the American Civil War in April of 1861, Frederic Edwin Church, the most successful American landscape painter of his day, debuted his latest “Great Picture”—a painting titled The North. Despite favorable reviews, the painting failed to find a buyer. Faced with this unexpected setback, Church added a broken mast to the foreground and changed the work’s title to The Icebergs. He then shipped the painting to London, where it was finally sold to an English railroad magnate and subsequently disappeared from view for 116 years. This beautiful book tells the fascinating story of The Icebergs and provides a detailed look at the cycle of fame, neglect, and resuscitation of both this masterwork and Church’s career. In 1979, The Icebergs sold at auction for $2.5 million, at the time the highest amount ever paid for an American painting. The sale coincided with an upswing in the popularity and acclaim accorded to American landscape painting, catalyzing the market for American art and contributing to a revival in the prestige of Church and the Hudson River School. Drawing on extensive interviews with many of the people involved with the painting’s rediscovery, sale, and eventual donation to the Dallas Museum of Art, the author considers the way marketing has defined The Icebergs.

Everyone remembers their first sighting of a Gary James...an artist without precedence -Mark Read of the Everard Read Galleries of South Africa & CIRCA Gallery, London. A Kenyan upbringing is the ticket to this voyage into a remarkably real created world entered via carved, integrating frames. Twice TVs pick of the show at the Royal Academies and with crowds and fan mail at a third RA Summer Exhibition, James remains a virtual unknown in his own country. A production rate averaging just one painting a year may account for this, but in an Art World where price is all, his output is sufficient to net him a viable living selling internationally. Also introducing the remarkable paintings of his artist son Alexander James. Together their art is akin to a vigorous breath of fresh air in a stuffy room.

Paintings of the Sea: A 2,000-Year Voyage invites its reader on an epic journey through time and space, from crowded harbors and well-traveled trade routes to wild shores where the miraculous and the monstrous await. Since the poet Homer first sang of Odysseus's perilous journey, to cross the sea has meant to travel into the unknown, step ashore on islands of sensual delight, and to confront unimaginable terror. Through masterpieces of marine painting, including works by J. M. W. Turner, Winslow Homer, Monet, Matisse, Picasso, and many others, we see how artists have long used the ocean to explore the extremes of human endurance and the limits of the imagination. This volume also draws on the great literature of the sea, from Shakespeare and Coleridge to Melville and Poe. Paintings of the Sea offers a glorious and intriguing look at what lies beyond the horizon.

Excerpt from The Voyage of Life: Suggested by Cole's Celebrated Allegorical Paintings Among the most beautiful specimens of allegorical painting is the series of pictures by the late Mr. Cole, entitled "The Voyage of Life" They are four in number, and constitute together an impressive moral lesson, which speaks through the eye to the heart. Many have gazed upon them with delight. When they were first opened by a number of artists in one of our cities, the impression on their minds, it is said, was so deep, that, for a while, not a word was spoken. Tho effect was too great even for commendation. Mr. Cole had the faculty not only of copying nature, - an art in which he stood almost unrivalled, - but of combining with the finest touches of the pencil high moral associations. His Voyage of Life will probably stand as a permanent memorial of his genius. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
