Changing Perspectives, Altering Perceptions: Picturing the Victorian London Street as Narrative Space

Simon Knowles

PhD

Subject: Painting
Country: England
Period: 19th Century

This thesis considers the many ways in which the crowded and contested London thoroughfare functioned as an urban signifier during the Victorian Period. By focusing on the discrete spaces of the real street, its location within the city, and upon the occupants and activities operating within its precinct, this thesis will argue for a synergy between the real and the represented street whereby the latter responded to the experience of the former. The street will be considered in three forms: the real street, experienced as social space; the described street, re-constructed in text; and the depicted street, re-constructed as image. Focusing primarily on the second half of the nineteenth century, the chronological framework of this thesis begins in 1851, when the conflict between the instrumental and social function of the street reached a new degree of intensity as a result of the crowds visiting the Great Exhibition. It concludes in 1900, allowing the incorporation of two areas of visual practice that are normally studied in isolation but which overlap chronologically: Victorian genre painting and the slightly later practice of Whistler and the London Impressionists, normally situated and evaluated within the context of Modernism. The principal theoretical framework of this thesis will be a socio/historical approach, utilizing, as part of this methodology, the reciprocal relation between image and text. This analytical tool is used as means to investigate the correlation between the real street and the street in its represented form, measuring the extent to which the latter provided a means to stabilize the experience of the former.

Imitation, Novelty and Eclecticism in the Architecture of Domenichino

This thesis is a building by building i.e. drawing by drawing analysis of Domenichino's entire architectural oeuvre. Focusing on the aspect of imitation as a concept in art theory this examination is largely structured along Domenichino’s use of iconic architectural prototypes. Such a systematic approach was necessary to trace and identify possible sources. On this basis I was able to clarify historical and regional influences, and how imitative techniques of sources led to innovation. Thereby I established a system for techniques of imitation used by Domenichino. These involved fusion, monumentalisation, contrapposto, simplification, sculptural richness of architecture, illusionism as well as romanisation of the modern and modernisation of the roman sources among other techniques. As a result a clear picture of his personal stylistic preferences for architectural-sculptural richness emerges which is in some way consistent with his painterly and decorative works but also reveals fundamental differences with regard to regional influences. In light of this, an evaluation of the influences and manifestations of art theoretical concepts of the ideal and beauty could be considered. I contrasted Domenichino’s work with contemporary trends and compared it with the achievements of high baroque architects such as Pietro da Cortona, Bernini, Carlo Rainaldi and Borromini in order to establish his unique place in early seventeenth-century. In some cases I was able to point out connections of individual works to French influences and to the Bolognese Sebastiano Serlio.
