Abstract

Les collections de peinture et de sculpture classiques du musée des Augustins, si elles sont moins illustres que celles de sculpture médiévale, recèlent toutefois des œuvres majeures de grands artistes européens (le Pérugin, Rubens, le Guerchin, Guido Reni, Murillo, Philippe de Champaigne, Oudry, Guardi, Pajou, Houdon). L'art à Toulouse y apparaît dans sa profonde originalité avec des artistes tels Bachelier, Chalette, Tournier, Frédeau, Rivalz et Arcis. Le grand art religieux entre la Renaissance et l'âge baroque est présenté dans l'église du couvent des Augustins, écrin incomparable et inoubliable pour le visiteur.

Abstract

Long celebrated as the quintessential New England regionalist, Winslow Homer (1836-1910) in fact brushed a much wider canvas, traveling throughout the Atlantic world and frequently engaging in his art with issues of race, imperialism, and the environment. This publication focuses, for the first time, on the watercolors and oil paintings Homer made during visits to Bermuda, Cuba, coastal Florida, and the Bahamas. In particular, The Gulf Stream (1899), an iconic painting long considered the most consequential of his career, reveals the artist's lifelong fascination with struggle and conflict. The book also includes Homer's depictions of rural life and the sea, in which he grapples with the violence of nature, as well as his Civil War and Reconstruction paintings of the 1860s and 1870s, which explore the unresolved effects of the war on the landscape, soldiers, and the formerly enslaved. Recognizing the artist's keen ability to distill complex issues in his work, Winslow Homer: Crosscurrents upends popular conceptions and convincingly argues that Homer's work resonates with the challenges of the present day.
