Moving Heaven and Earth

Capability Brown’s Gift of Landscape Steffie Shields This beautifully illustrated book, with the vast majority of the photographs taken by the author, makes a fitting tribute to the world-famous eighteenth-century landscape architect Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown (1716–1783) in his tercentenary year. Moving Heaven and Earth reveals the driven polymath behind the famous nickname. It explores both Brown’s artistic legacy and his pioneering work with water in landscape. The book evaluates the rise of the English landscape garden in the climatic context of his designs and also forms a comprehensive guide for tours and visits. Over 370 colour photographs pinpoint Brown’s enduring views and surprisingly vibrant planting palette. The release of this book coincides with the Capability Brown exhibition Lenses on a Landscape Genius at the Building Centre, Store Street, London, 22 June–31 July 2016. Steffie Shields is a professional garden photographer, writer and historic landscape consultant. Having researched ‘Capability’ Brown for over twenty-five years, she has now compiled a photographic archive of over 200 attributed works. She lectures countrywide, has appeared on Channel 4 television and been an advisor for More 4. Her photographic awards include several commendations in the International Garden Photographer of the Year competition.

Graham Dean James Attlee In this first comprehensive and lavishly illustrated survey of his work, the reader is invited into Graham Dean’s studio to be part of an intimate conversation about his life and career with author James Attlee. Graham Dean, one of Britain’s leading figurative painters, has resolutely followed his own path. In particular he has challenged accepted ideas about watercolour, wresting it away from its eighteenth-century roots in landscape painting to make monumental, lifesize depictions of the human body that can take years to complete and have a depth and vividness of colour more often associated with work in oils. He discusses the details of his technique, the role of the model in his practice, the people and influences that have shaped his career and the importance of his early years in Liverpool, as well as providing valuable insights into key works among his oeuvre. With around 150 works reproduced in full colour, many newly photographed for the book, this is the perfect introduction for both the many aficionados of Graham Dean’s art and those encountering it for the first time. James Attlee is the author of Gordon Matta-Clark: The Space Between (2003), Isolarion: A Different Oxford Journey (2007), Nocturne: A Journey in Search of Moonlight (2011)and Station to Station: Searching for Stories on the Great Western Line (2015), as well as numerous essays, articles and reviews, mainly concerning art and books. 6

Never Fear Reliving the Life of Sir Francis Chichester Ian Strathcarron In Never Fear – Reliving the Life of Sir Francis Chichester Ian Strathcarron follows in the footsteps and wakes of Sir Francis’s life of adventure, adversity and triumph. Born in 1901 into a troubled childhood in rural Devon, he suffered through the sadism of the English public school system, then in 1918 left for New Zealand where he made his first fortune. There he took up flying and in 1930 became one of the first aviators to fly from London to Sydney. After being the first solo flyer across the Tasmania Sea from New Zealand to Australia, he set off to circle the world, only to crash, nearly fatally, in Japan. After serving in the RAF in the Second World War, he took up sailing at the age of fifty-four and in twelve years became the most famous yachtsman in the world. Along the way there are struggles and triumphs, climaxing in being knighted with Sir Francis Drake’s sword in Greenwich. Ian Strathcarron, himself an aviator, yachtsman and adventurer, follows him all the way, comparing what Sir Francis found then to what he finds now, meeting the descendants of the people who played important parts in his life and getting under the skin of what made the man, the man. Ian Strathcarron is the author of Joy Unconfined! Lord Byron’s Grand Tour Retoured, the Mark Twain travel trilogy Innocence and War, The Indian Equator and Mississippi Mayhem and the philosophy works Living with Life and Mysticism and Bliss. He is also Chairman of Unicorn Publishing Group and a mediator with the cultural property ADR service Art Resolve.

Edward Johnston A Signature for London Richard Taylor In 1916 Edward Johnston finished the design of a new typeface for the Underground Electric Railways of London. He had been asked by the managing director, Frank Pick, to produce public lettering of ‘bold simplicity’ both to symbolize the transport company and to encourage more passengers to use it. The next year Johnston designed the first version of the bullseye logotype or roundel, now famous around the world. Both the lettering and the logotype were to have a profound, lasting influence on the graphic design for the whole London transport system and beyond. In an adapted form, they are viewed each day by millions on tube trains, station signs, buses, posters, leaflets and maps. In this book, published to mark the centenary of the Johnston typeface, Richard Taylor tells the fascinating story of Edward Johnston’s life, as well as his association with leading lights of the Arts and Crafts movement, together with a compelling account of his passionate pursuit of ‘readableness, beauty and character’ in lettering.

12


Illustrated with a wealth of material from the London Transport Museum and elsewhere, the book captures the genesis of this groundbreaking typography, traces its history from the days of wooden and metal type and describes its evolution right up to its deployment as New Johnston, in digital form, for signage at the London Olympics in 2012. Edward Johnston’s work lies at the heart of the brand for Transport for London (TfL). He could not have imagined that it would one day become a symbol for the capital itself: a signature for London indeed. Richard Taylor is a professional archivist and museum curator. Coming from a railway family in York, he set up the London Transport Archive (now TfL Corporate Archives) in the early 1990s. After this he became Head of Archives for Railtrack PLC and subsequently a Senior Curator at the National Railway Museum. Recently he has returned to the London Transport Museum as Curator for ‘Johnston Journeys’, the museum’s project to mark the centenary of Johnston’s Underground typeface. The London Transport Museum explores the story of London and its transport system over the last 200 years, highlighting the powerful link between transport and the growth of modern London, culture and society since 1800. As well as exploring the past, the Museum looks at present-day transport developments and concepts for urban transportation in the future.

Dynastic Rule

Mikhail Piotrovsky and the Hermitage Geraldine Norman Published to coincide with the centenary of the Russian Revolution in 1917, Dynastic Rule celebrates one of the great success stories of a stormy period of Russian history. This book tells the story of two directors of the State Hermitage Museum, who (for over five decades between them) have presided over what has become one of the greatest museums of the world. Saved from the Bolshevik revolution in 1917, the Hermitage was run from 1964 until his death in 1990 by Boris Borisovich Piotrovsky. His son, Mikhail Borisovich Piotrovsky, took over the reins in 1992; his tenure has recently been extended until at least 2020. Geraldine Norman was born in 1940. Having read mathematics at Oxford University, she joined The Times newspaper as a statistician in 1962. In 1967 she launched the Times-Sotheby index of art prices and in 1969 became the sale room correspondent of The Times. In 1987 she moved to The Independent newspaper, leaving in 1995 to write her book The Hermitage: The Biography of a Great Museum (1997). She subsequently became director of the Hermitage Development Trust (1999–2001) and editor of the Hermitage Magazine (2003–2005). She remains a trustee of the Hermitage Foundation UK which she founded in 2003.

Charleston Farmhouse, 1981

A Photographic Recollection of the Home of the Bloomsbury Group in Sussex Kim Marsland After Duncan Grant died in 1978, Charleston Farmhouse in Sussex lost the last of its original Bloomsbury Group residents. With its fate unclear, the house and contents remained undisturbed for many years. During this time, art student Kim Marsland made two visits to take notes and photographs for an essay on the Bloomsbury Group. Her unique record of Charleston shows the house just as Grant left it – cluttered with years of painting, collecting and family life. These twenty-six photographs capture the atmosphere of a house full of memories and artistic importance. They also show Charleston before its restoration, allowing the reader a peek into a lost past. Some pictures will be familiar to lovers of Charleston Farmhouse, but others (such as ones of the garden) less so. This beautifully produced book of previously unseen photographs is the perfect keepsake for Bloomsbury Group aficionados. Kim Marsland is an artist, illustrator and lecturer. She graduated from the Royal College of Art and went on to exhibit her paintings internationally as well as produce illustrations for numerous publications and companies such as Penguin, Times Newspapers and Bloomsbury. She was a senior lecturer in Illustration at the Kent Institute of Art & Design as well as a visiting lecturer at St Martins, City & Guilds and Cambridge College of Art. 15

The Kama Sutra Colouring Book The Kama Sutra has thrilled and fascinated western readers since the book was first translated and made available in a small privately printed version in 1883 by noted orientalist and author Sir Richard Francis Burton. This ancient Hindu text, written by Vatsyayana, gives practical advice in prose and poetry on the four goals of Hinduism. Originally the work was unillustrated, but later editions have included wonderful detailed drawings showing a variety of tantric conjugations with incredible backdrops of Indian palaces and gardens. Now, for the first time, a carefully chosen selection of illustrations from The Kama Sutra have been redrawn especially for the reader and aspiring artist to colour for their entertainment and enjoyment.

Albion’s Glorious Ile

Hand-colouring books from the Songs of Poly-Olbion Edited by Anne Louise Avery These beautifully produced colouring books present, over four volumes, thirty county maps of England and Wales. The maps were produced in the early seventeenth century by the cartographic engraver William Hole to accompany the vast landscape poem Poly-Olbion by Michael Drayton, one of the most famous poets of his age. Arguably the strangest maps of Britain ever designed, they depict the familiar rolling countryside as a playful fairyland, bustling with otherworldly beings. Every topographical feature is anthropomorphised, a form of depiction known as prosopopeia: hills are represented as stout country gentlemen, rivers as water nymphs and forests as elegant huntresses. The poetry and maps of Poly-Olbion came out of the Renaissance vogue for chorography, the art of describing place, and together they provide one of the most detailed overviews of the rich landscapes, history and legends of Early Modern England and Wales. This is a colouring book to keep and treasure as a complex, endlessly rewarding work of art. 20


‘It is thus that real fairies would speak if they existed.’ C.S. Lewis

‘Such a wonderful idea!’ Simon Schama

‘Drayton’s Poly-Olbion has the most delightful title in English poetry, by a long way. It’s hardly ever read these days, which is a pity because it’s full of curious quirks and oddities, and a lovely sense that the landscape of Albion (or Britain) is full of gods, nymphs, fairies and other denizens of fantasy, and that the rivers, hills and other geographical features he lists so carefully are themselves alive, with memories, speech and feelings. I welcome the reappearance, in any form, of this vivid and slightly crazy poem, and the picturesque images that accompanied it.’ Phillip Pullman

Anne Louise Avery is an art historian and director of Flash of Splendour, an arts and education non-profit dedicated to empowering children and young people through history, literature and the creative arts. Recently, she directed the Heritage Lottery-funded Children's Poly-Olbion project, introducing children to Drayton's poetry and Hole's cartography, culminating in a major exhibition at the Royal Geographical Society in London and in the creation of Albion’s Glorious Ile.

The Lure of the Key

Knowledge Acquired from Some Thirty-Five Years Collecting William Wallace The key has been in use for many centuries; it has become such a familiar object, essential for so many uses that, apart from identification, its appearance is of little or no importance. Modern keys are characterless, mass-produced stampings that do not merit a second look. Technology and the need for improved security mean that they are gradually facing extinction. This book covers the history of the key from the Middle Ages to 1900. At the end of the seventeenth century the craftsman’s skill reached its zenith, as depicted in many illustrations within the book. But with the spread of new manufacturing processes during the Industrial Revolution the craft eventually saw its decline. The author has managed to include a number of keys whose owners can be identified, such as the Duke of Somerset, William and Mary’s Lord Chamberlain and the Earl of Carnarvon, and has briefly researched their histories. After a career in the London Stock Exchange, William Wallace entered the antiques trade and then the jewellery business. A chance encounter with an abandoned door in southwestern France sparked his interest in keys. He has now been an ardent collector of antique keys (a cagophilist) for more than thirty-five years, during which time he has become accepted as an authority on the subject, well known to museums and collectors in Britain and overseas.

War Beneath the Waves

U-Boat Flotilla Flanders 1915–1918 Tomas Termote For four years the German U-boats of U-Flottille Flandern would become a serious threat to the seeming omnipotence of the Royal Navy and its fleet. By the end of the war they had managed to sink a total of 2,554 Allied ships, totaling 2.5 million tons of shipping. The Royal Navy put everything it had at its disposal to defeat the U-boats and as a consequence, these countermeasures caused the loss of eighty per cent of the U-boats which were stationed in the Flemish ports. Tomas Termote visited the wrecks of many U-boats and has unravelled many of their secrets. He also writes about life on board the U-boats, their importance in the war and the heavy losses on both sides. For the first time a detailed insight into this unique part of history is given with an account of the fate of every U-boat of the fleet. Illustrated with contemporary images, underwater colour photographs of the wrecks, drawings of the sites and artefacts which helped identify many sites, including that of UB-88, which ended up after the war in US waters where she was paraded in every big port on the US East coast, and sailed right up north along the West coast where it ended its life after being sunk off San Diego.

Eugène Burnand

In Search of the Swiss Artist (1850–1921) Shirley Darlington Eugène Burnand was the most famous Swiss artist of his generation. This book charts the discovery by the author of Burnand and his incredible First World War pastel portraits by an old friend – a distant relative of the artist. Burnand wished to capture all the nationalities involved on the Allied side in the war, from the private soldier to their highest staff officer – from the home combatants and their colonies. He portrayed their personalities with great psychological insight and consummate skill, sitting knee to knee, as in a confessional. The ethnic diversity of the first ‘global war’ is shown here along with stories about some of the individual subjects who went on to achieve much in later life. The pictures Burnand created glow out of the pages and many have been included in this book along with the narrative, a true journey of European exploration of art history, in the author’s quest to learn more about this wonderful artist and his work.

The Twisted Florin

Evasion from France, Escape from Italy Squadron Leader John Mott MBE Stella Clare Mott An adventure story following one of the Second World War’s truly forgotten heroes, Squadron Leader Arnold John Mott MBE as told by his niece. A very personal and evocative tale of one man’s journey to war, and his work – first as a bomber pilot completing nineteen missions before being shot down, and then evading capture across the Pyrenees to return to duty flying Lysanders out of RAF Tangmere on Special Operations Executive (SOE) missions. In 1942 his Lysander got bogged down and John was captured, but following the Italian armistice he managed to escape into the Alps to rejoin service, this time with No. 1 Special Force due to his unique knowledge of partisan groups. This book also offers fresh perspectives on the devastating personal effect of the war on servicemen and civilians, on both the home front and in occupied Europe. An unsung hero with no sense of his own achievements just an innate sense of duty in a time of crisis – one of only a handful who came back twice.

The Somme

The Day by Day Account Chris McCarthy The Somme – The Day by Day Account is a new revised edition of the landmark book presenting a detailed chronicle of the battle, day-by-day, unit-by-unit from 1 July to 19 November 1916. This fascinating book is a significant account of the conflict of 1916 and a practical guide for anyone wishing to see and understand how the battle evolved. The day-by-day layout is illustrated by a fine selection of photographs, many rarely seen and all carefully linked to show specific details of each month’s fighting. Equally important are the full colour maps illustrating trench names, fortresses and strongpoints, jumping-off points, objectives and gains made. The unique layout makes it possible to follow the progress of a specific British brigade through reserve trenches, the front lines, no man’s land and captured enemy positions, and to trace that unit on the detailed maps. Chris McCarthy joined the Imperial War Museum in 1976, first as a Curator of British uniforms and then as Conservation Officer. He is now retired, but continues to work on a long-term database project on the First World War. Chris is a member of the British Commission for Military History and an Honorary Research Fellow in War Studies at the University of Birmingham.

The Man who Saved Paris Roger West’s Ride, 1914

Michael Carragher Foreword by Dr Noble Frankland CB, CBE, DFC A vivid account of the opening weeks of the First World War by a volunteer despatch rider who may have prevented a swift German capture of Paris. Of Anglo-German stock, Roger West was conflicted when the war broke out but volunteered out of the strong sense of duty that was characteristic of his class. His linguistic skills led to his being commissioned into the Intelligence Corps but he was seconded as a despatch rider to the 19th Brigade, which bore a great brunt of the fighting in the first few weeks in 1914. West was in the thick of things despite being crippled with a badly-damaged foot, often riding round the clock, delivering despatches, directing and assisting soldiers separated from their units and helping disoriented stragglers. Discovering that a critical bridge had been left open to the German advance, he volunteered to ride back and blow it up, preventing the retreating Fifth French Army from being taken in the flank, something that could have fulfilled the Schlieffen Plan’s aims and won the war quickly for Germany. Michael Carragher is the author of San Fairy Ann? Motorcycles and British Victory 1914-1918 (FireStep) and ‘The Despatch Rider Corps in 1914’ in Stemming the Tide: Officers and Leadership in the British Expeditionary Force 1914, ed Dr Spencer Jones (Helion & Co).

A Voyage to War

An Englishman’s Account of Hong Kong from 1936–41 Edited by Hugh Dulley Hugh Dulley’s father (Peter Dulley) and mother (Therese Sander) met in Hong Kong on New Year’s Eve 1935. Four years later at the outbreak of War, Peter, a weekend sailor, was called up to the Hong Kong Royal Naval Volunteers. He eventually graduated to commanding an ocean-going tug of 500 tons, which he took from Hong Kong to Aden. En route he called at islands still enjoying pre-war peacetime and navigated across the Indian Ocean using a sextant. In July 1940 Therese, who was eight months pregnant, was evacuated from Hong Kong to the Philippines, where Hugh was born. She then travelled to Australia after a short stop in Hong Kong, which was to be the last time she saw Peter. Collected here is six years of correspondence from Peter to Therese. Edited and condensed by Hugh, it paints a unique and often humourous portrait of life in Hong Kong in the run up to and during the early stages of the Second World War. Hugh Dulley was born in the Philippines in 1940, and subsequently evacuated to Australia for the duration of the Second World War. He followed his father to Westminster School and rowed at Henley. Most of his career was in NHS management. He holds an MA in Applied Psychology, which proved valuable later for researching and writing and editing papers in the NHS, then in consultancy and latterly studying history and archaeology. He has revisited Hong Kong and Australia on a number of occasions.

War Office Publications The War Office Publications (WW1) series are reproductions from a number of contemporary manuals and books covering First World War doctrine. These were issued by the War Office (WO) Stationery Services (SS) Department and the General Staff to all relevant departments and personnel and provide a fascinating insight into the daily lives of soldiers, as well as details of how the conflict was fought. They also help to dispel the myth that the First World War was fought on a basis of tactical and organisational mismanagement. On the contrary, every functional detail was carefully thought through, explained and documented.

Wellington’s Dearest Georgy

The Life and Loves of Lady Georgiana Lennox Alice Marie Crossland Using largely unpublished sources, this book tells the story of Lady Georgiana Lennox and the unique friendship she cherished with the Duke of Wellington. She first met the Duke on his return from India when he was serving under Georgy’s father as Chief Secretary. The Lennox family moved to Brussels in 1813 and Georgy’s mother, the Duchess of Richmond, threw the now legendary ball the night before the Battle of Waterloo. Georgy was a young, beautiful and immensely popular young lady at the time with many suitors. She and the Duke enjoyed a flirtatious early friendship, which blossomed into a true bond between their families as the years went by. Georgy had a front row seat at the Battle of Waterloo and remained in Brussels after the battle to help tend to the wounded. At twenty-nine she married the future 23rd Baron de Ros, who became a diplomatic spy and later Governor of the Tower of London. Georgy had three children and died at the impressive age of ninety-six. Alice Marie Crossland specialised in nineteenth century British Art at UCL. She worked with the Wellington family on the catalogue of portraits Wellington Portrayed published in 2014. She has since worked at the National Gallery and Royal Academy pursuing research projects.

Death and Deceit in a World where Friends are as Dangerous as Enemies Doug Beattie MC Paperback │ 346 pp │ 234 x 156 mm │ BIC Code: FH, FJM 978-1-908487-04-9 │ August 2016 │ £14.99

From the historic parade ground of the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst to the squalid back alleys of Peshawar, two men are playing a deadly game of cat and mouse. One a disgraced British Intelligence officer recruited into ‘The Det’, the second a top Al Qaeda IED facilitator, whose life has been turned upside down by a US Reaper attack. But things aren’t always as they seem: from comrades in arms to deadly enemies, they have become puppets in a war now more than a decade old. As the ties between allies begin to fracture each side is now more wary of the other. The stakes couldn’t be any higher, this is not about national interests, this is about survival. In the end only one man will walk out alive, his life will be changed forever and a legend will rise.

Chris Moore’s second BBC memoir plunges into the same white-hot media furnace he so vividly evoked in 2015’s Greg Dyke, My Part In His Downfall. That unexpected best-seller on Amazon gave readers an unforgettable worm’s-eye perspective on world events, as seen from within the seething can of multi-platform content labelled BBC News. This second lifting of the lid reveals what happened when Greg Dyke’s successor as Director-General, Mark Thompson, arrived clutching an agenda for radical change that rapidly turned into a recipe for disaster. He dished out change all right, but radio was not a priority, nor the BBC World Service – bad news for its tens of millions of listeners and very bad news for the journalists in its newsroom. For them, it was the beginning of the end. 38 Universe Press

The English and Their Country attempts to solve this puzzle, providing an account of English characteristics for confused guests. Including everything from a description of England’s geography and climate, to an explanation of the English class system and the Englishman’s ‘reserved’, ‘sensitive’ and ‘shy’ behaviour, this book is a lighthearted and amusing take on English life and customs.

Decoding the Front

Communication 1914–1918 Karen Derycke The entry of the dominions and the colonies into the First World War produced a mixture of languages and cultures, and communication thus became an international concept. The publication Decoding the Front draws attention to the wide range of possibilities that the word ‘communication’ covers. Around the turn of the century, modern means of communication were not welldeveloped but the war and technological progress soon changed this. Photography and film, letters, postcards and many of the new ways of communication at the front are discussed such as radio, telephone and telegraph. But also animals such as homing pigeons, horses and dogs were still indispensable in the vast communication network; communication in the war was often a strange contradiction between primitive and modern technologies. The Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917 presents the historic story of the First World War in a poignant and vivid way, with a particular emphasis on the Battle of Passchendaele, one of the most horrific battles from the war, with more than half a million casualties for a territorial gain of merely eight kilometres. The museum provides an overview of the five battles of Ypres, including the Battle of Passchendaele or 3rd Ypres, serving as a gateway to the landscape today with the location and surroundings still showing the scars of that time. Using historical objects, authentic letters, posters and other documents, uniforms of the various armies and video clips, etc. both young and old get an insight into how life must have been on and around the battlefields. 40

When his Dance with the Devil sold at auction in 2015 for £77,500, auctioneers Bonhams described Conor Harrington’s works as ‘magisterial canvases which unite the luxuriant, shadowy intensity of Caravaggio with the provocative roughness of the street’. This monograph, the first to chart his career in such depth, covers the nascent graffiti of his teenage years, the artistic awakening during his Fine Art degree in Limerick and his subsequent London-based career, with solo gallery shows in London and New York. Alongside striking photography chronicling both his gallery paintings and open air works across Ireland, UK, Europe, USA, Brazil and even along the Bethlehem Wall, sits fascinating documentary photographs of these artistic journeys paired with Harrington’s personal commentary.

A Company Man

The Remarkable French-Atlantic Voyage of a Clerk for the Companies of the Indies edited and with an introduction by Erin M. Greenwald translated by Teri F. Chalmers Recently rediscovered and never before published, this buoyant memoir recounts a young man’s 1729 voyage from Paris to the New World. An incorrigible rake – if not an outright rogue – Marc-Antoine Caillot documents a string of pranks, parties, and romantic escapades, and he speaks with immediacy across the centuries, illuminating racial and ethnic politics, environmental concerns, and the birth of New Orleans’s distinctive cultural mélange. Enlivened by the author’s own exquisite illustrations, A Company Man provides an intimate look at the early history of one of America’s most storied cities, placing it and the fledgling colony it anchored within the nexus of the French Atlantic empire. Named 2014 Humanities Book of the Year by the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities. “We are lucky that The Historic New Orleans Collection has invested the money, time, and expertise to bring Caillot’s memoir to a wide audience. The book is beautifully and expertly produced . . . And then there is Caillot himself, whose youth, spirit, and hormones make him an astute if unlikely guide to this complicated world to which he paid such great and painstaking attention.” — JAMES TAYLOR CARSON, Journal of Southern History.

An intriguing blend of art, science, history and psychology, this book traces stories of jewels and all those connected to them. The pieces featured in this lavishly illustrated book are not all the most expensive or ‘important’ to have passed through the sale room, but rather those with intriguing histories which span diverse time periods, cultures and design eras. These stories have not been shared publicly before and offer a glimpse into the lives of those who have loved, lost, commissioned or created jewels, who have marked, with the giving or receiving of them, the most memorable moments of their lives. And all of them are true. Sarah Hue-Williams is a freelance gemmologist, jewellery historian and lecturer. She is a Fellow of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain and author of Christie’s Guide to Jewellery (2000). Raymond Sancroft-Baker was European Jewellery Director at Christies for over twenty years and is a Fellow of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain.

THE ENGRAVINGS OF

CHARLES AND GEORGE HUNT 1820 –1870 RACING, COACHING, HUNTING, LANDSCAPES & CARICATURES by JOHN HICKMAN

The Engravings of Charles and George Hunt (1820–1870) Racing, Coaching, Hunting, Landscapes and Caricatures John Hickman Hardback │ 400 pp │300 x 250 mm BIC Code: AFH, WSNB │ 200 colour images 978-1-910065-97-6 │ Dec 2016 │ £60.00

Charles and George Hunt, two of the most skilled and prolific engravers of their day, flourished during the boom years of the English Sporting Print (1820–1870). The public’s enthusiasm for horse racing and coaching grew rapidly during the early nineteenth century, and the middle classes wanted colourful depictions of these scenes to decorate their walls. So the Hunts were kept busy reproducing the works of, among others, Henry Alken. F. C. Turner and James Pollard, capturing the essence and atmosphere of this particularly English art. John Hickman is a descendant of Charles Hunt but his interest began forty years ago, when he started his collection and furnished his first flat with prints from their engravings. Later, Alfred Gates of Ackermann’s, the print dealers, suggested he compile this reference work on the Hunts, which is introduced by John Sabin with a short history of the English Sporting Print. 44

Brussels Art Nouveau Architecture and Design

Alec Forshaw Photography by Alan Ainsworth Paperback with flaps │ 160 pp │ 225 x 200 mm BIC Code: ACVY, AMB, AMR │ 100 commissioned colour photographs 978-1-910065-47-1 │ Oct 2016 │ £25.00

More a design philosophy than a style, Art Nouveau flourished c. 1893–1914, inspired by the forms and patterns found in nature. This book celebrates the concentration of Art Nouveau architecture and design in Brussels, often considered the Art Nouveau capital of Europe. It is the first comprehensive guide to buildings from eleven main areas of the city, also providing background information on each of the designers such as Victor Horta, Paul Hankar and Henry Van de Velde, and specially-drawn twelve maps for those wishing to devise their own tours of the city. A frequent visitor to Belgium, author Alec Forshaw has a deep interest in Victorian and Edwardian architecture and worked for over 40 years on conservation of the historic built environment. Publications include Smithfield: Past and Present (1980) and New City, Contemporary Architecture in the City of London (2013) with Alan Ainsworth. Photographer Alan Ainsworth worked in the City of London before becoming a full-time photographer and writer. His books include Clerkenwell: Change and Renewal (2010) and The Barbican: Architecture and Light (2015).

Holkham Hall, home of the Coke family since 1612, is a masterpiece of eighteenth-century Palladian architecture surrounded by a major agricultural estate bordering on the dunes and marshes of the North Norfolk coast. Built and furnished over twenty-five years by Thomas Coke, 1st Earl of Leicester, and completed by his widow, it houses an internationally important collection of paintings, classical sculpture, furniture and books. The Holkham archives, researched by the author, Christine Hiskey, for her 400-year history, are the key. Archivist since 1985, Christine Hiskey sheds fresh light on the attitude of the famous agriculturalist, ‘Coke of Holkham’ towards the Hall, and shows how, in the following centuries, both family and staff adapted to changing fashions, aspirations and economic circumstances.

When setting down my responses, I used the technique of spontaneous writing as much as I could. I let myself associate with the image, but not randomly. It’s tempting when you look at Asian-inspired art, or abstract art in general, to turn the image into a Rorschach test. (Not that ink blots don’t have their own aesthetics. After all, they were devised to peer deeper into the patient than what he or she was willing to see, or tell.) I could be criticized for dwelling too much on everyday associations. My starting point might be too mundane. Let’s go a bit deeper, then. Telepathy isn’t about using your mind like a TV station to broadcast pictures. Indeed, telepathy is no more than an example of how mind extends beyond the brain. Mind is collective. Its contents are shared. Hidden in its deeper reaches are invisible things. What kind of invisible things is Lucy tapping into? Consider Listening To Your Soul (p. 136). If I sampled twenty people and asked them if this image was masculine or feminine, I think most would say feminine. The soul, or anima, is also feminine. It’s our source, the still point around which a lifetime of activity spins. Isn’t that implied here? I see that white dot in the center as a kind of source, and swirling out of it is Creation. The soul expands into the world exactly like that. I also think that most people could see the outline of a chambered nautilus in this image, if it were suggested to them.
