Oxford was the home base for England's Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group that included, for a time, a few women. This book delves into how and why Rossetti, Millais, Hunt and others broke the conventional rules of picture making in their day.

French Drawing & Watercolors (Ashmolean Handbooks)

This history of French drawing is not the same thing as a history of French painting, although they often overlap and merge. Drawing is the foundation where creativity first finds its expression.

Claude Lorrain (1604 - 1682) is known as the father pf European landscape painting. His influence has been enormous, not only on the art of his immediate followers but on European landscape painters throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. The impact of his art has been felt particularly in Britain, where 18th- and early 19th-century artists, collectors and connoisseurs contributed to a cult of Claude which has left a lasting effect on British attitudes to the countryside. As a result, Claude's art has become very familiar and we have tended to see Claude through his influence. This fascinating new book, which accompanies a major exhibition of Claude's work at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford and the Städel Museum, Frankfurt, sets out to re-appraise his work and look at it through fresh eyes. It unites in a single volume paintings, drawings and prints from all periods of the artist's life, highlighting not only the well-documented similarities between paintings and related works on paper, but also the essential differences between these different art forms. The range of works reproduced in this book, alongside its critical scholarly text, make it an essential purchase for all those interested in Claude, the landscape, and European landscape painting in general. It gives new insight into the creative process and achievement of one of the most enchanting of European masters.
