Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This absorbing monograph is the first to detail the captivating life and oeuvre of the Dutch artist Gesina ter Borch. Gesina ter Borch (1631-1690), a Dutch watercolorist and draftswoman--and the younger half-sister of painter Gerard ter Borch (1617-1681)--is one of the most well-known women artists of the seventeenth-century Dutch Republic. Her oeuvre is securely attributed and thoroughly catalogued, with three albums of her watercolors and calligraphy known today; surprisingly, though, she has never been the subject of an independent monograph or sustained discussion. This volume is the first to highlight her watercolors and calligraphy in their own right, alongside documentation of her work as an art teacher, archivist, and artist's model. Adam Eaker revisits Ter Borch's role during the genesis of Dutch "high-life" genre painting and, in doing so, examines the construction of gender and social classes by comparing her art with that of her brother. In this monograph, Eaker questions a historiography of women's art that frequently valorizes painting over other media and values work for the market over "amateur" production. Gesina ter Borch offers a fascinating exploration of Ter Borch's life and work and a more nuanced understanding of the ideologies and achievements of Dutch genre painting.

"This fascinating new look at the artistic legacy of the Tudors reveals the dynasty's enduring influence on the arts of Renaissance England and beyond. Ruling successively from 1485 through 1603, the five Tudor monarchs brought seismic changes to England that reverberated throughout Europe. They used the arts to legitimize and glorify their tumultuous rule, from Henry VII's bloody rise to power, through Henry VIII's breach with the Roman Catholic Church, to the reign of the "Virgin Queen" Elizabeth I. With incisive scholarship and sumptuous new photography, this book explores the extreme politics and outsize personalities of the Tudors, and how they used art in their diplomacy at home and abroad. Tudor courts were truly cosmopolitan, attracting top artists and artisans from across Europe. At the same time, the Tudors nurtured local talent and gave rise to a distinctly English aesthetic, one that is forever connected to the myth and visual legacy of their dynasty. The Tudors reveals the true history behind a family that has long captured the public imagination, bringing to life their extravagant and politically precarious world through the exquisite paintings, lush textiles, gleaming metalwork, and countless luxury objects that adorned their spectacular courts." Contents are as follows: Genealogy of the Tudor Dynasty -- Preface: an insular art? / Elizabeth Cleland and Adam Eaker -- Inventing a dynasty -- England, Europe, and the world: art as policy / Elizabeth Cleland -- Courtly splendor -- Furnishing the palace / Elizabeth Cleland -- The Tudor art of the gift / Adam Eaker -- Honing the Tudor aesthetic / Elizabeth Cleland -- Courtly identity -- Hans Holbein and the status of Tudor painting / Adam Eaker -- Fashioning the courtier / Adam Eaker -- Icons of rule / Adam Eaker -- The Tudor legacy -- Iterations of Elizabeth: a seventeenth-century legacy / Sarah Bochicchio -- The Tudor afterlife / Marjorie E. Wieseman. VG+: In shrinkwrap or like new.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A new account of painting in early modern England centered on the art and legacy of Anthony van Dyck As a courtier, figure of fashion, and object of erotic fascination, Anthony van Dyck (15991641) transformed the professional identities available to English artists. By making his portrait sittings into a form of courtly spectacle, Van Dyck inspired poets and playwrights at the same time that he offended guardians of traditional hierarchies. A self-consciously Van Dyckian lineage of artists, many of them women, extends from his lifetime to the end of the eighteenth century and beyond. Recovering the often surprising responses of both writers and painters to Van Dycks portraits, this book provides an alternative perspective on English arts historical self-consciousness. Built around a series of close readings of artworks and texts ranging from poems and plays to early biographies and studio gossip, it traces the reception of Van Dycks art on the part of artists like Mary Beale, William Hogarth, and Richard and Maria Cosway to bestow a historical specificity on the frequent claim that Van Dyck founded an English school of portraiture.

Hardback. Condition: New. Gesina ter Borch (1631-1690) was a Dutch watercolourist and draughtswoman whose work survives primarily in the form of three albums of watercolours and calligraphy, now held at the Rijksmuseum. Despite the fact that her oeuvre is securely attributed and thoroughly catalogued, Ter Borch has surprisingly never been the subject of a dedicated monograph, until now. For the first time, this book highlights Ter Borch's watercolours and calligraphy in their own right, as well as her work as an art teacher, an archivist, and an artist's model, and questions a historiography of women's art that frequently values oil painting over other media, and work for the market over 'amateur' production. Adam Eaker revisits Gesina ter Borch's role in the genesis of Dutch 'high-life' genre painting and its construction of gender and social class, comparing her art with that of her brother Gerard, and in so doing allows for a more nuanced understanding of the ideologies and achievements of Dutch genre painting.
