‎Rogier Van der Weyden emerged from scholarly and critical neglect only with the revival of interest in the so-called Flemish Primitives during the second half of the nineteenth century. The immensely forceful, frequently disturbing images which Van der Weyden produced owed as much to his supreme control of paint as they did to his observation of detail, which was never permitted to dominate the general rhythm and pattern of the picture itself. These qualities fused to create a style with a direct impact but one which was the result of only the most subtle and painstaking calculations of color and balance. Dr Campbell explores Van der Weyden???s position both as official painter to the city of Brussels and within the international system of princely patronage which was evolving during his lifetime.

‎Georges Lemmen (Schaarbeek, 25 november 1865 ? Ukkel, 5 juni (of 5 juli) 1916) was een Belgisch kunstschilder, graveur en illustrator, werkzaam in de stijl van het impressionisme en het pointillisme. Hij vervaardigde stillevens, stadsgezichten, portretten en landschappen.[1] Lemmen studeerde korte tijd aan de tekenschool in Sint-Joost-ten-Node. In 1888 sloot hij zich aan bij de kunstenaarsgroep Les XX in Brussel.[2]In de vroege jaren 90 ging hij, onder invloed van het werk van Georges Seurat en Theo van Rysselberghe, werken in de stijl van het neo-impressionisme. Hij stelde werk tentoon bij Les XX in Brussel en bij de Salon des Independants in Parijs. In Parijs stelde hij tentoon samen met Seurat en Paul Signac. In de tweede helft van de jaren 90 maakte hij zich los van het pointillisme en werkte hij in een meer traditionele impressionistische stijl. Later was hij actief in de toegepaste kunst zoals zijn vrienden Willy Finch en Henry Van de Velde. Hij ontwierp affiches, boeken, behangselpapier enz. Hij gaf het schilderen niet op en evolueerde meer in de richting van Les Nabis. Hij had in 1913 een succesvolle tentoonstelling in Brussel. In 1915 verhuisde hij naar Ukkel, waar hij in 1916 overleed. ‎

‎Scottish Portraiture 1644-1714. David and John Scougall and Their Contemporaries‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 2 vols, 756 pages, Size:225 x 300 mm, Illustrations:1265 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503597270.‎

‎Summary This book is the first comprehensive publication on Scottish portraiture from the period 1644 to 1714, with an emphasis on the painters David Scougall (1625-1685), and his son John Scougall (1657-1737). It is based on in-depth art historical and archival research. As such, it is an important academic contribution to this thus far little-researched field. Virtually nothing was known about the Scougall portraitists, who also include the somewhat obscure George Scougall (active c. 1690-1737). Thorough archival research has provided substantial biographical information. It has yielded life dates and data on family relations and, also, it has become clear that David Scougall had two parallel careers, as a portrait painter and as a writer (solicitor). The legal community in which the Scougalls were embedded has been defined, as well as an extended group of sitters and their social, economic, and family networks. The book includes a catalogue raisonn of the oeuvre of David Scougall. The most important contemporaries of the Scougalls were the portraitist L. Sch neman (active c. 1655/60-1667 or slightly later), his successor James Carrudus (active c. 1668-1683 or later), whose work is identified for the first time in this book, David Paton (c. 1650-in or after 1708), Jacob Jacobsz. de Wet (1641/42-1697) and Sir John Baptist Medina (1659-1710). Their lives and work are discussed. An extensive survey of Scottish portraits, with an emphasis on the work of the Scougall painters, is presented for the period 1644 to 1714. Numerous attributions to various artists and sitter identifications have been established or revised. An overview of the next generation is provided, in which the oeuvres and biographical details are highlighted of the principal portrait painters, such as William Aikman (1682-1731), Richard Waitt (1684-1733) and John Alexander (1686-1767). Countless paintings have been photographed anew or for the first time, and have been compared in detail, which had hardly been done before, while information is also included on technical aspects and (original) frames. The resulting data have been complemented by analysing the social and (art-) historical context in which the portraits were made. The works of the portrait painters in Scotland from this period, as this book shows, now form a solid bridge between the portraits painted prior to George Jamesone's death in 1644, and those by the renowned Scottish painters of the eighteenth century.

‎Felsina pittrice: The Lives of Francesco Francia and Lorenzo Costa‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2022 Hardback, xxxiv + 410 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Illustrations:14 b/w, 163 col., Language(s):English, Italian. ISBN 9781912554799.‎

‎Summary In Bologna, Giorgio Vasari's maniera moderna is inaugurated through the art of the goldsmith-painter Francesco Francia (c.1447-1517). Malvasia assimilates the beginning of this new era with the end of night and the crack of dawn, when never before seen colors are revealed to the eyes with extraordinary intensity. In his life of Francia, Vasari had acknowledged the role of precursor played by this Bolognese master in the history of Italian painting. By the same token, he had tarnished Francia's reputation by alleging that he had died soon after unpacking Raphael's Ecstasy of Saint Cecilia upon its arrival in Bologna. His death, Vasari insisted, was a moment of reckoning: it was then that Francia recognized his artistic inferiority and damnation with regard not only to Raphael, but also to the highest achievements of the maniera moderna. Aware of the historical validity of Vasari's account, Malvasia ?lifted? it wholesale into his Felsina pittrice, but not without bringing its author to trial by examining his biased testimony in light of the rich documentary evidence he had gathered against his narrative. Equipped with the most refined tools of forensic eloquence, seething with outrage, Malvasia is at his best in challenging Vasari's historical distortions and prejudices not only in connection with Francia, but also his disciples, Timoteo Viti (1469-1523), Lorenzo Costa (1460-1535), and Giovanni Maria Chiodarolo (1480-1530). Denouncing Vasari's silence about the works and importance of Francia's progeny--in particular Giacomo (1484-1557) and Giovan Battista Francia--Malvasia explains how the activity of these masters promoted the education and social status of painters in Bologna before the foundation of the Carracci Academy in 1582. Illustrated with numerous color images (many of them taken expressly for this publication), this volume provides a critical edition and annotated translation of Malvasia's lives of Francia and his disciples, among them prominently Costa. The integral transcription (for the first time) in this volume of Malvasia's preparatory notes (Scritti originali) to the lives of Francia, Costa, and Chiodarolo presents important material that could foster the study of Bolognese painting in the age of humanism under the rulership of the Bentivoglio.‎

‎Felsina Pittrice: Volume IX: Life of Guido Reni‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2019 Hardback, 2 vols, 1152 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Illustrations:9 b/w, 367 col., Languages: English, Italian. ISBN 9781909400696.‎

‎Summary Celebrated by Malvasia as the creator and promoter of the new maniera moderna, Guido Reni (1575-1642) introduces the fourth age of painting: a period marked by an original and sometimes bold elaboration of the notion of artistic perfection developed by the Carracci and embodied more specifically by Ludovico's "synthesis of styles." Art in Italy could have declined once again after the deaths of the Carracci, but thanks to Guido and Domenichino, Francesco Albani and Guercino, painting is restored to its full blossoming, and, as a result, the Carracci lesson spreads and triumphs throughout Italy. In assessing Guido's role in promoting this artistic vanguard, Malvasia finds himself in a theoretical impasse. On the one hand, he cannot resist his infatuation with Guido's work. Endowed with spellbinding powers, Guido's paintings constitute the greatest luxury of modernity insofar as they reflect an endless search for aesthetic refinement and transcendental beauty both in the representation of the human body and in the orchestration of light, color, and impasto. On the other hand, Malvasia balks at embracing Guido's "last manner." In Malvasia's eyes, Guido's final production is both exceedingly sophisticated and tainted by its very sophistication: delicacy verges on feebleness, transcendence coalesces into purposeless abstraction, divine vision engenders incompleteness, and sprezzatura turns into apparent negligence. Furthermore, for Malvasia Guido is both a paragon of virtue and the self-indulgent victim of the gambling demon. With acuity, Malvasia praises Guido the money maker, the self-confident artist able to overhaul the mechanisms of the art market by exponentially increasing the value of painting. And yet, Malvasia cannot help but condemn Guido the money squanderer, the indebted painter who gambles away his reputation and jeopardizes the quality of his sublime output. Illustrated with numerous color images, these two volumes provide a critical edition and annotated translation of Malvasia's life of Guido. Based on a radical reassessment of the historical documentation and a profound investigation of Malvasia's art criticism, these volumes offer the most thorough treatment to date of the artist's work.‎

‎En s'attachant a representer dans ses oeuvres le Paris de son temps, Edouard Manet (1832-1883) a pu y saisir la scene urbaine au dix-neuvieme siecle, accordant a la ? vie moderne ? une legitimite en tant que sujet artistique. Son regard detache, franc, et son traitement subversif tant de la peinture elle-meme que du sujet ont choque ses contemporains et ont fait de lui le pere de la peinture moderne. Ce remarquable ouvrage explore l'oeuvre de Manet en tant que portraitiste, aspect important mais souvent neglige de sa production, et couvre l'ensemble de la carriere du peintre. L'evolution stylistique de l'artiste y est envisagee de facon approfondie grace aux contributions d'eminents specialistes qui abordent l'influence des maitres hollandais du dix-septieme siecle, ou etablissent des paralleles avec l'oeuvre de Renoir et des liens avec les debuts de la photographie. Somptueusement illustre par des peintures et des oeuvres sur papier, ainsi que des photographies de ses modeles, cette etude majeure apporte un nouvel eclairage sur ce peintre essentiel de la modernite.
