Fifty Years Of Modern Painting, Corot To Sargent is a book written by John Ernest Phythian in 1908. The book is a comprehensive overview of the development of modern painting over a period of fifty years, starting from the mid-19th century and ending in the early 20th century. The author focuses on the works of two prominent artists of the time, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot and John Singer Sargent, and their contributions to the evolution of modern painting. Phythian's book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of modern painting. The author discusses the various movements that emerged during this period, such as Impressionism, Realism, and Post-Impressionism, and how they influenced the art world. He also examines the different techniques and styles that artists used to create their works, including the use of light and color, brushwork, and composition.In addition to providing a detailed analysis of the works of Corot and Sargent, Phythian also discusses the works of other notable artists of the time, such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Vincent van Gogh. The author provides insights into the lives of these artists, their creative processes, and the social and cultural contexts in which they worked.Overall, Fifty Years Of Modern Painting, Corot To Sargent is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of modern painting. The book is well-researched and provides a comprehensive overview of the major trends and movements in art during this period.
