M. W. Turner, John Constable, William Blake, Paul Sandby, John Robert Cozens, Thomas Girtin, Thomas Gainsborough, and others. The exhibition was organized as part of the 2007 celebrations commemorating both the Center’s thirtieth anniversary and the centenary of the institution’s founder, Paul Mellon, one of the greatest cultural philanthropists of the twentieth century. In a period of a little over fifteen years, beginning in the early 1960s, Mr. Mellon assembled one of the world’s greatest collections of British drawings and watercolors. As part of his extensive collecting of British art, he purchased several distinguished private collections of British watercolors, enriching and expanding them with astute purchases reflecting his own taste. In his memoirs he praised “the beauty and freshness of English drawings and watercolors, their immediacy and sureness of technique, their comprehensiveness of subject matter, their vital qualities, their Englishness.” — — Great British Watercolors spanned more than a century of British artistic production, from the emergence of watercolor painting in the mid-eighteenth century to its flowering in the early nineteenth century. The exhibition highlighted the diversity of British watercolor painting, showing both landscapes and figurative works by some of the principal artists who worked in the medium. Paul Mellon’s collecting activity helped to revive the study of British watercolor. — — Venues — — Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Richmond: — — July 11–September 30, 2007 — — The State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia: — — October 23, 2007–January 13, 2008 — — Yale Center for British Art: — — une 10–August 17, 2008 — — Credits — — Organized by the Center in association with the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Richmond, Great British Watercolors was curated by Scott Wilcox, Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Center; Mitchell Merling, Paul Mellon Curator and Head of the Department of European Art, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts; and Matthew Hargraves, Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Paintings and Sculpture at the Center.

He set out for the subcontinent to make the drawings for the volume late in 1859. It took three years of work in India and another four years after he returned home to produce the lithographs. Unfortunately the publisher went bust before the volumes were completed, and Simpson saw no financial gain for all his work. The site Simpson chose for this view was Gaitor, five miles from Jaipur, which from 1743 had been the cremation place for the Kachhawaha kings. The small domed structures are chhatris, monuments erected on the site of the cremation. --- --- Gallery label for Great British Watercolors from the Paul Mellon Collection at the Yale Center for British Art (Yale Center for British Art, 2008-06-09 - 2008-08-17) 12230 300048722 Gallery label 2008-06-23 ycba_term_2036437 labor ycba_term_2036311 oxen ycba_term_2037090 carrying ycba_term_2039645 working ycba_term_2045254 chhatris 300001280 ycba_term_15674 domes 300006958 ycba_term_31806 monument 300122208 ycba_term_18006 funerary structures 300025928 ycba_term_7001 men 300054740 ycba_term_48141 dust-storm 300055366 ycba_term_1012 weather 300233315 ycba_term_22659 agricultural equipment 300046127 ycba_term_21541 turbans 300139140 ycba_term_2036211 genre subject 300015636 ycba_term_149705 landscape South Asia 7000208 ycba_term_2055327 South Asia 20.0000, 77.0000 India 7000208 ycba_term_1954297 India 20.0000, 77.0000 Orissa 7016694 ycba_term_1928897 Orissa 21.0000, 84.0000 Jeypore 7001687 ycba_term_1929040 Jeypore 18.8500, 82.5833 Rajputana 7016788 ycba_term_1929662 Rajputana 26.0000, 74.0000 Pratapaditya Pal, From merchants to emperors : British artists and India, 1757-1930, , Cornell University Press, Ithaca, NY, 1986, p. 122, fig. 116, N8214.5 I5 P25 + OVERSIZE (YCBA) 995834243408651 583424 N8214.5 I5 P25 + OVERSIZE (YCBA) 14173550 507 related to Yale Center for British Art, Great British watercolors : from the Paul Mellon Collection, Yale University Press, New Haven, 2007, pp. 200-201, no. 88, ND1928 .Y35 2007 (LC)+ Oversize (YCBA) 9978423063408651 7842306 ND1928 .Y35 2007 (LC)+ Oversize (YCBA) 71833360 4877 related to 300055603 500303557 Yale Center for British Art https://britishart.yale.edu Yale Center for British Art, Paul Mellon Collection 300055598 Public Domain 300435434 https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/ 12230 300133025 Item 500303557 Yale Center for British Art http://britishart.yale.edu https://collections.britishart.yale.edu/catalog/tms:12230 oai:tms.ycba.yale.edu:12230 https://manifests.collections.yale.edu/v2/ycba/obj/12230 https://manifests.collections.yale.edu/ycba/obj/12230 IIIF manifest Yale Center for British Art 500303557 Yale Center for British Art
