Ausgedehnte Reisen in Großbritannien und Kontinentaleuropa waren für J. M. William Turner die unerschöpfliche Inspirationsquelle für seine visionären Farbkompositionen. In der Schweiz erlebte er die Schönheit und Bedrohlichkeit der Alpen, am Meer die Farbklänge des diffusen Lichts. Das Buch präsentiert einen unvergleichlich originellen Maler auf dem Weg zur Autonomie der Kunst. Mit dem vorläufigen Frieden auf dem Kontinent seit 1802 dehnte der Londoner Künstler seine Motivsuche auf Zentraleuropa aus und durchstreifte, unentwegt seine Eindrücke skizzierend, besonders die Bergwelt der Schweiz. Im Atelier entwickelte er daraus die einzigartige Bildsprache seiner sublimen Landschaftsbilder. Anhand von Bildern, die von der Naturgewalt des Meeres ebenso wie von jener der Schweizer Berglandschaft berichten, befassen sich die Autoren mit der Veränderung in der Darstellung des »Erhabenen«, mit dem Motiv der Wetterphänomene, mit Turners Rolle als Vorläufer der Moderne und Cees Nooteboom denkt über Turner und das Reisen nach.

Le Romantisme
- 399 stránek
- 14 hodin čtení
Le romantisme, synonyme d'art moderne, incarne intimité, spiritualité, couleur et aspiration vers l'infini, comme le souligne Baudelaire. Ce mouvement artistique et littéraire, qui émerge au début du XIXe siècle, s'étend à travers l'Europe et le Nouveau Monde. Il marque une rupture avec le classicisme et les enseignements académiques, permettant aux artistes de s'exprimer librement à travers leur sensibilité et leur imagination. L'ouvrage, riche de plus de 450 reproductions, offre un panorama exceptionnel de ce mouvement, explorant des thèmes variés allant du mythe de Napoléon à la nostalgie médiévale, des représentations du sacré à l'orientalisme, ainsi que de l'observation des paysages à l'évasion dans le rêve et le fantastique. Le parcours commence avec le préromantisme à la fin du XVIIIe siècle et se termine vers 1860 avec l'émergence du réalisme. En plus des figures emblématiques comme Delacroix et Géricault, le livre met en lumière des artistes moins connus qui ont également contribué à la diffusion du romantisme. Un tableau chronologique et des biographies d'artistes à la fin de l'ouvrage fournissent des repères précieux, offrant une immersion dans l'une des périodes les plus fascinantes de la culture européenne, dont l'influence perdure aujourd'hui.

J M W Turner was a prolific master born to a barber in Covent Garden in 1775. When he died in 1851, he left over 19,000 artworks. Selecting which to include in this book was a major feat in itself. Turner was a Romantic when it came to landscapes, with an inimitable flair for seascapes, and was a pioneer of new techniques to create tone and hue, deeply impressed by Goethe's theory of colours. It took a great art critic named John Ruskin to interpret his works in full. Turner was also a successful art gallery owner, professor of the Royal Academy and tireless traveller who invariably returned home to England laden with outstanding artworks from abroad, especially Venice. With a keen eye for dramatic angle, he also documented on canvas the Battle of Waterloo, the fire that devoured Parliament and other major historical events of his time. Today his works figure in the collections of the most famous museums in London, Los Angeles, New York and Washington DC.

J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) is the most masterly of British painters. His work exploits the great traditions of European painting, while anticipating the development of modern art in the twentieth century. As a Romantic, he was from his earliest works sensitive to the natural dramas found in land and seascapes, though increasingly light and colour alone became all-important to him. He travelled through England, France, Italy and Switzerland, and his views are possibly the most imaginative evocations of these countries ever painted. The essay by William Gaunt (1900-80), an acknowledged authority on British art, was originally published in 1971. For this new edition Robin Hamlyn, Research Assistant in the Historic British Collection at the Tate Gallery, has added notes to the colour plates, for which he has drawn extensively on the most recent research on Turner, and many black and white illustrations.
