Synopsis
Over the past thirty years, our ideas about the cultures of Empire have been transformed. Contemporary reflections on Empire by writers and artists are widely published and displayed, and museums have witnessed a growing number of exhibitions devoted to aspects of the rich and varied visual culture that emerged in places under British governance, from the Americas to India and Australasia. And yet, since the vast Imperial exhibitions of the early twentieth-century there has been no wide-ranging presentation of the objects made across the British Empire. This publication, which accompanies a major Tate Britain exhibition, fills that gap. Through broad groupings within thematic chapters - Mapping, Collecting, History, Portraiture, Cultural Exchange and the Return of Empire - leading scholars focus on how particular objects tell the history of life under British rule. Paintings by well-known artists such as John Singer Sargent and Sidney Nolan are illustrated alongside Benin bronze heads and Mughal miniatures in a survey that ranges from sixteenth century colonialism through to the projection of Britain's imperial might in the late nineteenth century to its decline in the post-war era. Exploring how artists have represented and critiqued the diverse places, people and events that make up the legacy of Empire, our expert authors have created a vital book on a subject of broad contemporary interest., What lasting legacy did British colonialism have on the cultures once under the Empire's control? A rich and varied visual culture emerged in places under British governance, from the Americas to India and Australasia. Writers, artists, and museums have long played a role in documenting the cultural impact of British colonialism, and yet, since the vast Imperial exhibitions of the early 20th century, there has been no comprehensive presentation of the objects made across the British Empire. This publication, which accompanies a major Tate Britain exhibition, fills that gap. In this landmark study, leading scholars focus on how particular objects tell the history of life under British rule. Paintings by artists such as John Singer Sargent and Sidney Nolan are presented alongside Benin bronze heads and Mughal miniatures in a survey that ranges from 16th-century colonialism to the British Empire's decline in the postwar era.

- a***j (449)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe item was exactly as described; very well packaged and extremely fast shipping! However, the location stated US, not Uruguay. Honest transparency is expected when purchasing. I noticed another review made the same comment. I didn’t read the reviews until after I made the purchase. The seller should be truthful regarding location.Reply from: ayb-planet- Feedback replied by seller ayb-planet.- Feedback replied by seller ayb-planet.I've been in the USA (Miami, FL 33106) for over 22 years, but the confusion is that part of my heritage is in a free trade zone, and other in Argentina orUruguay. That's why the documentation often leaves from there, but the merchandise is in transit or even in the Miami free port zone. On the other hand, returns will always be received on the mainland. I think that in the end, the issue would be somewhat irrelevant, because always the important thing is a satisfied customer with the purchase.ANTIQUE GERMAN TEA STRAINER w/FOOTED BASE 3.5", ART NOUVEAU, LIGHT USED, c1920 g (#116672581997)
