SUMMARY:Hubert-François Gravelot: Designing the Georgian Book
DESCRIPTION:  \nHubert-François Gravelot (1699–1773) was a student of François Boucher and Jean Restout\, invited to London to collaborate on the illustrations of a religious encyclopaedia in 1733. Bringing Rococo taste to England\, Gravelot had a broad practice\, being a draughtsman\, painter\, engraver\, and designer. \nDuring his twelve-year stay in England\, Gravelot joined William Hogarth at St. Martin’s Lane Academy. He collaborated on several designs for Vauxhall Gardens with his former pupil Francis Hayman. Both Gravelot and Hayman were Gainsborough’s masters during his training in London in the early 1740s. \nGravelot’s output has long been overlooked by art historians because he was principally a supplier of designs for commercial enterprises\, especially book illustrations\, often considered a minor genre of art. Yet\, his bravura in creating elegant scenes full of details in the small space of a page made his work famous. Well-known authors of the time such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau\, Voltaire\, or Henry Fielding\, specifically asked for him to illustrate their works to ensure they became best-sellers. Overall\, Gravelot designed the illustrations for more than fifty books both in France and in Britain. \nGainsborough’s House is fortunate to hold one of the largest collections of drawings and prints by Gravelot in the UK\, second only to the British Museum’s collection. The exhibition will present a selection of books and preliminary studies highlighting Gravelot’s talent as an illustrator.

SUMMARY:Philip de László: Master of Elegance
DESCRIPTION:  \nA special exhibition curated by the De Laszlo Archive Trust. \nDe László was already one of the most famous portrait painters in Europe when he decided to settle in England in 1907. His relentless energy\, charisma and pursuit of perfection in his art saw his circle of patronage widen from Budapest\, the city of his birth\, via the princely houses of Europe. London attracted him as a city immersed in a golden age and the work he produced there during the next thirty years was bursting with vitality and virtuosity. The period is brought to life through portraiture and landscapes and features a section on his experiences during the First World War.  \nThe exhibition will feature rarely-seen loans from private collections as well as important works from the Royal Collection\, including a childhood portrait of Queen Elizabeth II when Princess of York.
