Synopsis
How did Francis Bacon's painting materials differ from those used by Hogarth? How did Whistler achieve harmony in his paintings and what was the legacy for his pupils and followers? How many different yellow pigments did Gainsborough use to mix the colour of John Chafy's cello and what is their effect? These and other questions can now be answered by the advances in scientific analysis that have shed new light on the working practices of artists of all periods. Revealed here in thirty intriguing case histories are results of the study of British paintings at the Tate Gallery. These investigations, described by the conservators and scientists who worked together to examine each painting, are recorded in non-technical language for everyone interested in the creative process and its impact on our understanding of art.

Softcover. Etat : Very Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice book in great condition. Pages in excellent condition. Softcover. English. Pub Year 1999, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Paint and Purpose: A Study of Technique Over Four Centuries of British Art by Stephen Hackney explores the intricate relationship between materials and artistic expression in British painting. Drawing on extensive research from the Tate Conservation Department, this book examines various artworks created between 1594 and 1958, including portraits, landscapes, and allegorical pieces. The focus is on paintings executed with traditional media such as oils, egg, glues, gums, and waxes, deliberately excluding synthetic materials like acrylic for consideration in a future publication.Hackney emphasises that while the historical study of techniques has flourished, it often lacks a rich comparative framework for analysing artists and their national schools. Thus, this volume avoids presenting a chronological history of British painting techniques. Instead, it centres on individual artists and their unique approaches to materials, akin to letters of the alphabet that can be rearranged in infinite combinations. Artists featured include notable figures such as Whistler, Sargent, Gainsborough, Turner, and Reynolds, among others.The chapters offer insights into the technical details of specific paintings while recognising the need for more comprehensive analysis in the future. Hackney notes that understanding the techniques and materials behind individual works enhances the appreciation of the aesthetic experience, contributing to art history's evolving narrative. As conservation efforts continue, each new addition to the Tate collection not only requires an art historical catalogue entry but also a detailed technical assessment, paving the way for deeper understanding and potential future explorations in art analysis.
