Abstract

"In Physiognomy and the Meaning of Expression in Nineteenth-Century Culture, Lucy Hartley examines the emergence of physiognomy as a form of popular science. Physiognomy posited an understanding of the inner meaning of human character from observations of physical appearances, usually facial expressions. Taking the physiognomical teachings of Johann Caspar Lavater as a starting-point, Hartley considers the extent to which attempts to read the mind and judge character through expression can provide descriptions of human nature. She argues that the writings of Charles Bell, and the Pre-Raphaelites establish the significance of the physiognomical tradition for the study of expression whilst also preparing the ground for the rise of new doctrines for the expression of emotion by Alexander Bain and Herbert Spencer. She then demonstrates how the evolutionary explanation of expression proposed by Spencer and Charles Darwin is both the outcome of the physiognomical tradition and the reason for its dissolution."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

Introduces the work of the seventeenth-century Dutch portrait draughtsman to a wider audience. Until recently, the Dutch draughtsman Johannes Thopas, who was born deaf in 1626, was only known to a small group of connoisseurs, dealers and collectors. However, his remarkable, subtle and technically refined portrait drawings on parchment deserve a wider audience. This handsome publication, the first devoted to his work, will prove to be an eye opener for many art lovers. Beginning with his earliest works (two beautiful miniatures of 1646 in the Fundation Custodia in Paris), Thopas produced incredibly refined drawings, usually with lead point on parchment. Apart from lead-point drawings, Thopas made several drawings in colour, on parchment and on Japanese paper. In most cases these drawings were done after life. Furthermore, he produced at least one brilliant copy after a painting by Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem, Venus, Mars and Cupid, and even a painting, portraying a dead child. He must have made more paintings and certainly more drawings than the seventy we know today (all of which are catalogued and illustrated here). In this exhibition his only known painting and the one mythological drawing are shown and accompanied by thirty of his most beautiful portraits, from private collections in the US, Canada, United Kingdom and the Netherlands, as well as museums, such as the Albertina in Vienna, the Amsterdam Rijksmuseum, the Städel in Frankfurt and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

Abstract

Arabische gom vertelt het verhaal van een product dat al eeuwenlang een grote rol speelt in uiteenlopende culturen, maar dat tot op de dag van vandaag niet na te maken is, omdat zijn chemische structuur zo complex is. Arabische gom vloeit uit de gekneusde stammen van acacia’s die alleen in de Sahel groeien. Het product begint zijn geschiedenis als ingrediënt van inkt en van lijm (ondermeer voor mummies). Daarnaast werd gom ook gebruikt als geneesmiddel. Na invoering in Europa kreeg gom nog vele andere toepassingen, waardoor zijn populariteit steeg. De ‘edele gom’ werd bezongen door dichters als Shakespeare en Cats.

Abstract

Tout en étudiant les mécanismes de la demande sociale de la peinture médicale, cet ouvrage en analyse l'utilité, la destination et la pertinence. La peinture médicale a-t-elle une fonction et laquelle ? Quelle est l'intention du peintre à travers la perception qu'en a le public ; s'agit-il de lui adresser un message scientifique ou de provoquer sa pitié ? Quelles sont les intentions des collectionneurs ? L'auteur s'interroge aussi sur le rôle de l'État, le lien qui existe entre la peinture et les circuits qui l'utilisent, et la naissance d'une politique d'acquisition de l'administration des Beaux-Arts, incertaine suivant les époques ou servant la propagande de Napoléon Ier puis de Napoléon III. Un temps en faveur du pouvoir, cette action se transforme en un autre type de glorification, celle des nouveaux héros que sont les médecins. Parallèlement, l'image de l'autre héros, l'officier tué sur le champ de bataille napoléonien, s'efface devant celle du simple soldat de la guerre franco-prussienne. La misère militaire devient anonyme et collective. C'est ainsi que la peinture exprime et renforce un mouvement dans le siècle et rend compte de l'ascension du prestige des médecins.

Abstract

Aucune question n'a occupé autant l'art occidental que celle qui touche à la représentation du corps, à ses conventions et à ses licences. Scandée par des querelles, des ruptures, des crises iconoclastes, la transmission d'un savoir sur le corps, sous forme de règles de proportions, de modèles anatomiques, de poses de référence, est une des missions majeures que se sont données les écoles d'art. A cet égard l'Ecole des beaux-arts de Paris, forte d'une tradition de près de quatre siècles, est exemplaire. Le fonds patrimonial qu'elle conserve est d'une richesse exceptionnelle, et même unique en Europe. Il montre que l'Ecole, depuis sa création en 1648, a été au centre des enjeux esthétiques les plus importants. De l'Ecorché de Michel-Ange à celui de Houdon, des dessins anatomiques de Géricault aux premiers films d'Etienne-Jules Marey, à travers plusieurs centaines d'œuvres qui traversent le champ de l'histoire de l'art et de la science, voici un panorama inédit des instruments pratiques et des outils conceptuels qui ont servi à élaborer les représentations du corps (quatrième de couverture)
