Paintings by Walter Sickert, Wendy Baron and Richard Shone
Requirements: .PDF reader, 48.7MB
Overview: Walter Richard Sickert (1860-1942) is one of the great figures of British painting. He is perhaps most famous for his depictions of the music hall, its artistes, audience and elaborate interiors and for his vibrant views of Venice and Dieppe. In recent years his later works, portraits and scenes from contemporary theatre, have gained him new admirers.
Sickert's range of subject was enormous and his technical achievement both searching and progressive. Too long regarded as simply a follower of the Impressionists he has now come to be seen to have strong affinities with a wide range of artists, from Hogarth to Keene, from nineteenth-century German illustrators to Rouault and Munch. He embraced formal portraiture and idyllic landscape, controversial domestic scenes, such as the Camden Town Murder, and memorable portrayals of public figures, the canals of Venice, the old streets of Dieppe and of England in the 1930s.
This publication coincided with, and served as the catalogue of, a major retrospective exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in 1993, the first full-scale retrospective of Sickert's work in London in over thirty years. It includes essays on Sickert's artistic context and influence, the history of the music hall and Sickert's interest in conventional theatre in the 1930s.
Written by the foremost experts on Sickert and his period, Wendy Baron and Richard Shone, this book is a richly illustrated complement to the exhibition, exploring all its themes in detail.

I was in the beginning and shall be forever. The first and the last. The world come full circle. I am time, the destroyer. I was the wind and the stars before this. Before planets. Before heaven and hell. And when all is done, I will be wind again, to blow this world as dust back into endless space.
