约瑟夫·纳什
以生动人物描绘英国历史建筑
Joseph Nash was an English watercolour painter and lithographer, specialising in historical buildings. His major work was the 4-volume Mansions of England in the Olden Time, published from 1839–49. 纳什出生于白金汉郡的大马洛,是奥基·纳什牧师的长子。奥基·纳什牧师拥有位于克罗伊登的庄园房屋学校,约瑟夫后来就读于该校。他后来师从艺术家兼建筑师奥古斯都·查尔斯·普金,并随其前往法国,协助并为1830年出版的《巴黎及其周边》一书准备建筑图纸。 在职业生涯的早期,纳什致力于绘制以诗人和小说家为主题的人物画,并在水彩画家协会展出了许多素描作品。他于1834年当选为该协会的准会员,并于1842年成为正式会员。这些作品中的一些被雕刻制版,用于《 Keepsake 》及类似出版物。但后来,他因描绘晚期哥特式建筑的风景画而闻名,他在画中安排人物群像,以展现过去建筑主人的日常生活——这种方式与乔治·卡特莫尔的风格有些相似。尽管与水彩画家协会发生过多起争执,他仍继续在该协会展出作品,直至1875年。他还曾在皇家艺术学院、英国艺术学会以及新水彩画家协会展出作品。 在掌握了石版印刷术之后,纳什将其应用于多部优秀出版物的制作:《中世纪建筑》于1838年出版,而他的四卷本杰作《往昔英格兰府邸》则从1839年起历时十年陆续问世,期间纳什遍游全国,绘制房屋的内部与外部。他专注于建筑的 architectural 方面,并以约瑟夫·斯特拉特为例,通过加入人群场景使画面生动起来。这些卷册广受欢迎,石版画被报纸、建筑师及其他艺术家广泛传播。该书影响深远,甚至在议会中有人声称,它促使越来越多的人前往参观历史建筑。 In 1846 he lithographed David Wilkie's Oriental Sketches and in 1848 a set of views of Windsor Castle from his own drawings. Other works to which Nash contributed were Lawson's Scotland Delineated (1847–54), Comprehensive Pictures of the Great Exhibition of 1851, McDermot's The Merrie Days of England (1858–59), and English Ballads (1864). 1854年,他被描述为患有"脑热症",并于同年晚些时候出售了他的工作室——从那时起,他的作品质量急剧下降。1878年12月19日,他在伦敦贝斯沃特的赫里福德路去世,此前几个月他刚获得每年100英镑的民事清单养老金。 他的独子小约瑟夫·纳什是一位海洋画家,也是皇家水彩画家协会的成员。
