{"product_id":"william-holman-hunt-carol-jacobi-9780719072888","title":"William Holman Hunt: Painter, Painting, Paint","description":"This is a fundamental reassessment of the work of William Holman Hunt, and the first critical text to reproduce his pictures in colour and set him on an international stage. Introducing a new critique of the autobiography and drawing on hundreds of private letters, drawings and paintings, the author depicts a radical man of his times, deeply troubled by the pivotal concerns of the materialist age - the isolation of the individual, the collapse of faith and the status of art - and seeking solutions through a systematic testing of the extremes of painting. A close examination of the pictures, including neglected later works, combined with recent scientific research relate the physical act of painting, and the paint, back to the body of the artist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLavishly 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carol Jacobi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0719072883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719072888\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/30\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.51h x 7.07w x 1.01d","brand":"Carol Jacobi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44069399232767,"sku":"9780719072888","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_adca7b6d-4f81-400b-a258-3dcb534ef93e.jpg?v=1685424498","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/william-holman-hunt-carol-jacobi-9780719072888","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
