Description:

Art comes in many shapes and sizes and many different forms. And one person’s art is often someone else’s object of derision. But what we can all agree on is that Art exists, that it’s something perhaps unique to humankind but very definitely evokes a deep reaction whether of ‘wow!’ or ‘what?’ In this volume we take Art as our subject and have it reviewed and explored by other Artists, by Classic Poets. True Art ignites an individual response or a collective awareness. Our DNA seems to cultivate that. When we engage with Art the results are at times as surprising as they are interesting. In the words of Keats, Shakespeare, Wharton, Chatterton and very many others Art is seen and understood both as that individual reaction and a collective experience. Art is where it’s at. 01 - The Poetry of Art - An Introduction 02 - The Man With the Blue Guitar by Wallace Stevens 03 - Botticlelli’s Madonna in the Louvre by Edith Wharton 04 - Before a Painting by James Weldon Johnson 05 - Sonnet 20 - A Woman's Face with Nature's Own Hand Painted by William Shakespeare 06 - Sonnet 24 - Mine Eye Hath Played the Painter and Hath Steeled by William Shakespeare 07 - Sonnet 83 - I Never Saw That You Did Painting Need by William Shakespeare 08 - Art and Heart by Ella Wheeler Wilcox 09 - Colors by Stephen Vincent Benet 10 - I Have Colours in My Head by Daniel Sheehan 11 - I Would Not Paint a Picture by Emily Dickinson 12 - To the Painter, To Draw Him a Picture by Robert Herrick 13 - On Mr Alcock of Bristol, an Excellent Miniature Painter by Thomas Chatterton 14 - On the Portrait of Two Beautiful Young People by Gerard Manley Hopkins 15 - Portrait d'une Femme by Ezra Pound 16 - To a Beautiful Female Portrait by Henry Alford 17 - The Portrait by Ford Madox Ford 18 - Her Portrait Immortal by Richard Le Gallienne 19 - My Last Duchess by Robert Browning 20 - Portrait of My Father As a Young Man by Rainer Maria Rilke 21 - On a Portrait of Dante by Giotto by James Russell Lowell 22 - Written Under a Portrait of Keats by John Boyle O'Reily 23 - On Seeing the Elgin Marbles For the First Time by John Keats 24 - Jade by Edith Wharton 25 - Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley 26 - An Inscription for Zheng Shujin's Painting by Qiu Jin 27 - The New Colossus by Emma Lazarus 28 - Rome - Building a New Street in the Ancient Quarter, April 1887 by Thomas Hardy 29 - How Many Paltry Foolish Painted Things by Michael Drayton 30 - To the Painter of an Ill Drawn Picture of Cleone by Anne Kingsmill-Finch 31 - An Art Critic by Ambrose Bierce 32 - A Portrait by Richard Brinsley Sheridan Author - Thomas Chatterton.
