| Summary | "Gainsborough" by Max Rothschild is a biographical account of the renowned English painter Thomas Gainsborough, written during the early 20th century. This publication is part of the "Masterpieces in Colour" series and it delves into the life and works of Gainsborough, exploring his artistic contributions and significance in the context of British art. The book likely examines Gainsborough's notable portraits and landscapes while providing insights into the evolution of his style and personal life, set against the backdrop of 18th-century England. In this detailed biography, Rothschild outlines Gainsborough's early life in Sudbury, his formative years spent in Ipswich and Bath, and his ultimate relocation to London, where he gained widespread acclaim. The narrative chronicles his artistic journey, highlighting key commissions, significant relationships with patrons such as Philip Thicknesse, and rivalries, notably with Sir Joshua Reynolds. Rothschild intricately weaves anecdotes of Gainsborough's character and personality into the story, culminating in his final works and the challenges he faced leading to his death in 1788. The book is illuminated with vivid reproductions of Gainsborough's art, offering readers a visual testament to his extraordinary talent. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
