Welcome to the 10th
issue of Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide! We are proud to
have not merely survived but flourished during the first five years
of our existence and we thank you all for you contributions, your
encouragement (especially financial), and your "hits." Keep
them coming! |

It has always been our goal for Nineteenth-Century
Art Worldwide to attract the broadest possible audiencegeographically
as well as sociologically, and we have tried hard to appeal to all
the "communities" from which Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide
draws its strengthacademics, collectors, dealers, and museum curators. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
With that
in mind, we started, in our last issue, a new rubric that we hope
will broaden our already broad appeal: "New Discoveries"
highlights unpublished works of nineteenth-century art that recently
have appeared on the market or have been acquired by a museum or private
collector. |
|
| |
|
|

|
For the first installment of "New Discoveries,"
James Rubin wrote a fascinating essay on a newly discovered portrait
that he convincingly attributed to Eugène Delacroix and identified
as the artist's nephew Charles de Verninac. In the current issue,
Petra Chu writes about a hitherto unpublished early work by the Belgian
painter Léon Fréderic. We strongly encourage all readers
of Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide to bring important new
discoveries in nineteenth-century art to our attention, be they paintings,
sculptures, prints, or works of decorative art. It is not necessary
to provide us with a text but a good photograph of the work is essential.
