Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The reputation of George Stubbs has undergone profound changes over the two centuries since his death. Once neglected as 'only' an animal painter, more recent interpretations have stressed the social content and context of his art, revealing a figure whose work embodies complex attitudes towards upper-class sporting activities, the rural poor and the natural world. This book offers a refreshed picture of Stubbs, reaffirming his singular importance in the history of British art. Martin Myrone establishes Stubbs as a progressive artist, whose concerns with science and art set him somewhat at odds with the artistic establishment, and whose works provide a viable alternative to the 'aristocratic' models of the Academy. Part of Tate Publishing's British Artists series. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

First Edition
Paperbound. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. First Edition. Demy folio, [27.75cm/11inches], paperbound with pictorial covers, pp. 294, indexed. Fully illustrated with colour plates, &tc. Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. . Goodreads notes: "Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788) was one of the masters of eighteenth-century art. This book, published to accompany a major international exhibition covering the artist's entire career, reveals the sheer range, quality, and originality of Gainsborough's work from his engagingly naturalistic landscapes and touching images of children to his sophisticated and glamorous society portraits.In their essay, Michael Rosenthal and Martin Myrone explore his dynamic involvement with the social world of his day, as he endeavored to forge an art that engaged meaningfully with contemporary life. A second essay examines the development of Gainsborough's technique and working methods, from his early works and life in Sudbury, Suffolk, to the grand studio and gallery at Schomberg House, London, where he spent his final years.The astonishing range of works illustrated here fully demonstrates the variety and brilliance of Gainsborough's art. The paintings he chose for display in London's newly emerging exhibition venues are grouped together, providing a valuable insight into how he wanted his career and art to be understood. Also explored are his precocious early works, his subtle approach to the lucrative world of fashionable portraiture, the often pointed social commentary behind his seductive landscapes, and the exploratory nature of the last works". In exceptionally good condition.

1st edition. Fine paperback copy. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description; 160 p.: ill. (some col.); 26 cm. Notes; Catalog of the exhibition held at Tate Britain, June 9-Sept. 5, 2010. Includes bibliographical references (p. 150-151) and index. Includes a foreword by Penelope Curtis. Contents; What's so funny about British art? / Martin Myrone -- Carry on Tate / Cedar Lewisohn -- British comic art -- Frames of reference: the progress of comics / Paul Gravett -- Social satire and the grotesque -- Politics -- The worship of Bacchus -- The bawdy -- Bawdy beautiful / Sally O'Reilly -- The absurd -- Cedar Lewisohn. Summary; Put together with some the country's best-known cartoonists and comedy writers, this exhibition explores British comic art from the 1600s to the present day. Bringing together a wide array of paintings, sculptures, film and photography, as well as graphic art and comic books, the exhibition celebrates a rich history of cartooning and visual jokes. The room on the Absurd is curated by comedian Harry Hill, and includes such diverse materials as Alice in Wonderland illustrations, David Shrigley's sculpture, and films by Edwina Ashton and Oliver Michaels. Within the Bawdy, Donald McGill's smutty seaside postcards can be seen with works by artists as different as Aubrey Beardsley, Sarah Lucas, and Grayson Perry. The rooms exploring Politics, Social Satire and Cruikshank's Victorian masterpiece The Worship of Bacchus, have been put together with Gerald Scarfe, Steve Bell, and the cartoonists from Viz. These show the power of comic art as a form of social and political commentary throughout history, from satires of Georgian society by Rowlandson and Gillray to Spitting Image's damning Thatcher puppet. Looking at comedy that is both timeless and of-its-time, Rude Britannia contrasts contemporary artists such as Angus Fairhurst with key historical pieces, and covers everything from Hogarth to the YBAs. Comic Art - art that gains its effect through visual humour, caricature, exaggeration and slapstick, whether in print, reproduction or through the moving image - has long helped shape and inform British culture. This entertaining and irreverent history aims to present a wide-screen vision of comic art, from Hogarth to Spitting Image, from Michelangelo to The Mighty Boosh. Tackling the big themes of morality, politics, the bawdy and the absurd, from the eighteenth century to the present day, it will feature works by classic cartoonists and caricaturists, from Gillray, Rowlandson and Cruikshank, to Edward Lear, Heath Robinson, Oz and Viz magazine. Many of the greatest cartoonists and comic artists of recent years will be featured, including Steve Bell, Robert Crumb, David Low and Ronald Searle. Beginning with the origins of the caricature, the book's journey encompasses cartoons, comic books, film, photography, audio, new media and contemporary art. It will trace the development of different genres and techniques, and deal with the development of successive media, from the engraving through to the newspaper and the online blog. Humour is a weapon and a corrective. Over the period covered by the book it is seen to take on social commentary, politics, satire, sex, morality and the absurd. Politicians are remorselessly pilloried and pretensions pricked. The pious are revealed as hypocrites and the rich and famous as fools. Through extensive illustrations of classic and little known facets of comic art, the book succeeds in telling an alternative history of Britain. Leading critics will be joined by well-known comedians, cartoonists and historians, making this a very contemporary take on what is still a rich and vibrant seam in the public life of the nation.
