Widely regarded as a genius and as the greatest painter of the Victorian age, George Frederic Watts (18171904) was a ceaseless experimenter throughout his seventyyear career. He was not only the finest and most penetrating portraitist of his age but also a sculptor, landscape painter, and symbolist. This beautifully illustrated book encompasses the work of his entire career, from his early selfportrait in 1834 and first exhibited painting in the Royal Academy in 1837 to his most iconic work, Hope, and the remarkable, almost abstract painting, Sower of the Systems, completed in 1903. In addition, the book includes historic photographs and archival materials, especially concerning the establishment in 1904 of the Watts Picture Gallery in Compton, Surrey, for the permanent exhibition of his art. Essays by leading scholars examine the artists output, life, reception, and legacy.Exhibition Schedule:Guildhall Art Gallery (November 11, 2008April 2009)
