The Cranbrook Colony: Fresh Perspectives

The Cranbrook Colony: Fresh Perspectives

Christiana Payne
4/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
The Cranbrook Colony artists were active in Kent in the nineteenth century, producing picturesque scenes of everyday life. Their themes, which included childhood, family, work, old age and death, were universal and it was this that contributed to their enduring appeal. Much collected by the industrialists of the day, many of these works have found their way into the country's national and regional collections. Wolverhampton Art Gallery holds perhaps the largest collection of the artists' paintings and has held several past exhibitions of their work.

The Cranbrook Colony: Fresh Perspectives, re-visits previous analysis of the work of G. Hardy, F.D. Hardy, J.C. Horsley, A.E. Mulready, G.B. O'Neill and Thomas Webster and presents a new critique of their paintings. The publication includes writing by experts in the field of Victorian art and culture and contains around fifty colour illustrations. As the first comprehensive publication about the group since the 1970s this is long awaited research.
