Editorial Review

Product Description

This is a fundamental reassessment of the work of William Holman Hunt, and the first critical text to reproduce his pictures in color and set him on an international stage. Lavishly illustrated and engagingly written, this book answers the longstanding lack of any monograph on Hunt and will make compelling reading for undergraduate and graduate students of History of Art, Victorian Studies, English Literature and Religious Studies, as well as curators, conservators and the artist's many admirers.

3-0 out of 5 stars Disappointing.Not what I expected it to be.
This is an academic text.It reads like someone's doctoral thesis, and may have been that in an earlier incarnation.All of Hunt's major paintings are reproduced here, but in low quality on matte paper, intended only to help illuminate the text.This is a book written for and directed to an academic audience, and few others will find it useful.

WILLIAM HOLMAN HUNT: PAINTER, PAINTING, PAINT suffers from the usual maladies of post-modern academic writing.Citation and quotation substitute for genuine thought and reason.The author's psychological inability to accept any form of "truth" or "falsehood" results in a continuous, mind killing dither from position to position and theme to theme, never resting firmly enough to be pinned down.Anyone who has been through a liberal arts education in the past twenty years will understand what I mean.If you had enough of that in college, this is not the book for you.If you are working on your Ph.D on Pre-Raphaelitism, on the other hand, then this book is an essential! [but, if so, you probably know that already]

I am mystified by Jacobi's premise that Hunt's paintings are unattractive, "ugly", or aesthetically eccentric.Perhaps this is the traditional academic view and Jacobi is bound by her profession to respond to it, but Hunt's work has always been popular and considered beautiful by lay audiences.I am no art scholar, only a man among the plebeian crowd, but I find Hunt's paintings unimpeachably gorgeous.One suspects many academics' real issue with Hunt is/was not aesthetic at all, but ideological.He was one of those boring Christian-idealist types... "Oh, the horror!"

The most interesting part of the book was Jacobi's chapter on Hunt's painting materials and techniques, which any Hunt fan would enjoy.

I give this book three out of five stars, if only because it is a whole substantial volume about William Holman Hunt.There aren't enough of those.And he's my favorite.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the leading lights of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
Any Art lover who enjoys looking at paintings by a Artist totally in command of his craft, should look no further then the Art of William Holman Hunt. A deeply religious man who's many paintings were inspired from the Bible. This book goes into more detail about Hunt's private life then any other I have ever read, but it's the reproduced paintings that make this book stand out for me.
As the old adage goes, a picture is worth a thousand words,in this case how true.
Just one example of a painting which amply demonstrates his painterly prowess is a painting from 1852 called, "Our English Coasts" check out the light on the grass in the background and the sunlight shining through the ear of the sheep close'st to the front of the painting.
Truly Outstanding.
If you enjoy paintings by Hunt you may also like other members of the P.R.B. namely Ford Madox Brown and John Everett Millais.
I can assure you, you will not be disappointed.

5-0 out of 5 stars multifaceted study of 19th-century British painter
Jacobi "attempt[s] to rationalise Hunt's problematic aesthetic." One English art writer said of the Victorian-era/pre-Raphaelite English artist Hunt's works that they "are not good-looking." "Garish," "crude," "sharp and severe" are other terms that have been applied to Hunt's paintings. Jacobi does not disagree that such descriptions apply. But seeing that Hunt was a skilled painter with technical command, was self consciousness about the subjects he chose and the style he applied, and had a sharp eye (some have said he could see the moons of Jupiter with his naked eye), she looks more deeply into Hunt's works for the psychological, cultural, and religious bases of them. Basically, the lecturer and teacher of art and visual studies at two English educational institutions finds that Hunt's "anachronistic" Christian beliefs "impelled him to test the extremities of his art against modern circumstance." Working from the mid 1800s to the first years of the 1900s, the religiously-minded Hunt experienced an ineluctable modernism to make paintings that "are not failed imaginings of a comfortable middlebrow fantasy, but successful investigations of uncomfortable, not wholly controllable, individual actuality." While Jacobi's acute, multi-sided study (as the subtitle suggests) does not presume to elevate Hunt beyond his standing as a particularly interesting nineteenth-century English artist, it does discern and clearly define challenges Hunt presents to art historians and critics; and does resolve the primary ones through extensive biographical research, historical and sociological study of the period, and expert art critic skills, understandings, and insights. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
William Holman Hunt was one of the three major artistic talents of the Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood. Hunt’s work was always characterized by great seriousness of purpose, and his paintings include many of the most beautiful and powerful images of that midcentury explosion of creativity. This catalogue raisonée gives him the attention he deserves.

The book includes an introduction that assesses Hunt’s life and artistic practice and discusses his aims, philosophy, and religious beliefs, which shed light on his works. While many of his paintings, with their extraordinary effects of light and color, are immediately accessible, his mature works incorporate symbolism that cannot be fully understood without a detailed knowledge of his intentions, and the catalogue entries thoroughly explore this. The volume presents Hunt’s oils and works on paper in two separate sections, and appendixes provide additional information on his illustrated letters, etchings, published illustrations, sculpture, and furniture.

Judith Bronkhurst is assistant librarian at the Witt Library of the Courtauld Institute in London and the leading authority on William Holman Hunt.

3-0 out of 5 stars letters to thomas seddon from holman hunt

The title of his book is misleading, It is actually the "Bulletin of John Rylands University Library of Manchester"
composing of 9 different papers published on a varity of subjects.The letters of Holman Hunt are contained in 30 pages only.The content of the letters written to Seddon after he left Egypt to return to England are interesting enough for those readers wishing to know more about the life of Holman Hunt.
