From the Golden Age to Goya. This is the first study wholly devoted
to reception of Spanish art in Britain and Ireland. Examining the
extent and sources of knowledge of Spanish art in the British Isles
during an age of increasing contact, particularly in theaftermath
of the Peninsular War, it contains contributions by leading
scholars, including reprints of three essays by Enriqueta Harris
Frankfort, to whose memory this book is dedicated. Focusing on
Spanish art from the Golden Age to Goya, these studies chart the
growth in understanding and appreciation of the Spanish School, and
its punctuation by controversies and continuing distrust of
religious images in Protestant Britain, as well as by the
successive `discoveries' of individual artists - Murillo,
Velazquez, Ribera, Zurbaran, El Greco and Goya. The book publishes
important new research on art importation, collecting and dealing,
and discusses the increase in access to andscholarship on works of
art, including their reproduction through both traditional prints
and copies and the newly invented photographic methods. It also
considers for the first time the role of women in reflecting taste
for thearts of Spain. It is richly illustrated with 17 colour and
54 black and white illustrations. NIGEL GLENDINNING is Emeritus
Professor of Spanish and Fellow of Queen Mary University of London.
