About this book

Charcoals of New and Old New York is a book written by Francis Hopkinson Smith and published in 1912. The book is a collection of sketches and illustrations that depict various scenes and landmarks in New York City. The sketches are done in charcoal and showcase the city's architecture, streets, and people, both past and present. The book is divided into two parts: ""Old New York"" and ""New New York."" The first part focuses on the city's history, including its colonial past and the development of its architecture. The second part focuses on the modern city, including its skyscrapers and bustling streets. The book is a unique and artistic portrayal of New York City's vibrant history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

On Location: Drawing the Outdoors
<p><b>A journey through drawings by groundbreaking nineteenth-century artists who left the studio to look outside for inspiration</b></p><p>Featuring over 150 drawings and watercolors by some of the nineteenth century's most celebrated artists, <i>On Location: Drawing the Outdoors</i> investigates a monumental shift in artistic practice: the moment artists stepped outside the studio for inspiration and understanding. From Edouard Manet and William Blake to Paul Cézanne and Caspar David Friedrich, this publication includes works by artists spanning national and regional schools across Europe.</p><p>Guiding readers on an artistic expedition, this publication charts ten trails or thematic pathways through the collection, replicating the thrill of outdoor exploration and encompassing the rich variety of nature's subjects. By tracing patterns of artistic experience, the obstacles and opportunities encountered outside, and the materiality and techniques of nineteenth-century works, the book asks critical questions--what constitutes a landscape, and what does it mean to draw <i>the</i> outdoors rather than to draw <i>while</i> outdoors?--and invites readers to consider these works in the context of contemporary issues of environmentalism, the relationship between art and technology, and more.</p><p>Distributed for the Harvard Art Museums</p><p><b>Exhibition Schedule: </b></p><p><b>Harvard Art Museums, Cambridge, MA</b><br>(September 18, 2026-January 17, 2027)</p>
