Note: |
Robert Anning Bell: A turn-of-the-century
painter, sculptor, printmaker, mosaic and stained glass artist, Robert
Anning Bell was educated at University College School, Westminster School
of Art (under Fred Brown) and at the Royal Academy Schools. He completed
his education in Paris, under Aime Morot. |
|
Robert Anning Bell first gained national attention as an illustrator, with
his drawings appearing in such publications as the English Illustrated
Magazine (1891-94) and The Yellow Book (1894-95). From 1894
to 1913 he also illustrated over twenty fine books, such as, A Midsummer
Night's Dream (1895), Poems by John Keats (1897), Lamb's
Tales from Shakespeare (1899), Grimm's Household Tales (1901), Palgrave's
Golden Treasury (1907) and English Fairy Tales (1913). |
|
A Master of the Art Worker's Guild, R. A., Robert Anning Bell taught at Liverpool University,
the Glasgow School of Art (1911-1914) and at the Royal College of Art (1918-1924).
Among his many artistic accomplishments are his mosaic at the Houses of
Parliament, London, and his tympanum over the west door of Westminster
Cathedral. Robert Anning Bell was elected a full Academician of the Royal
Academy. |
|
During the 1890's Bell was seen as a major figure of both British Art
Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts Movement. His illustration work, in particular,
was often compared to that of Walter Crane. Yet Robert Anning Bell's individual lithographs
from this decade, such as this original example, bear stronger similarities
to those of James McNeill Whistler. Both artists were familiar with each
other's work and contributed a several lithographs at this time for publication
in The Studio. |
|
The Music Score was commissioned by The Studio, in London, in 1898. During
the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries this journal was the
leading British arts publication. Founded in 1893, the journal frequently
commissioned leading contemporary artists for original etchings, lithographs
and woodcuts. Contributing artists during the 1890's included Felix Vallotton,
James McNeill Whistler, Emil Orlik, Charles Edward Holloway, Hans Thoma,
Joseph Pennell, Alexandre Lunois, Fernand Khnopff, Frank Brangwyn and Robert
Anning Bell. Bell was commissioned three times for original lithographs
by The Studio near the end of the century. |
