New find: it appears George French Angas trimmed the left edges of two paintings to remove S T Gill's signature for his 1846 London exhibition. Paintings considered to be Angas's best, evidence shows, are actually by Gill. In this new overview I examine Gill's work for and relationship with Angas, 1844 to 1852. Gill as ghost artist. Much praise bestowed on Angas has rightly belonged to #S_T_Gill. #colonialArt #historyAU #artHistoryAU #ozGLAM #catalogueRaisonne

Reading "Ms & Mrs Gould" and finding similarities between John Gould and (the much younger) George French Angas in terms of ambition, Queen Adelaide patronage, commercial approach, format, and even appropriation of the works of others.
Angas intended to illustrate #SouthAustralia’s settlements, scenery, First People and any natural history not covered by Gould's "Birds".
Borrowed from #LibrariesACT where it is in high demand. #S_T_Gill #1840s #colonialArt

WA Cawthorne (1824-1897) was a school teacher and amateur artist. His #1840s diaries and pictures are among the most valuable records of Aboriginal culture made by a South Australian colonist. He's known for helping with George French Angas' "South Australia Illustrated" project. My new article mainly concerns his relationship with #S_T_Gill, his art master from February 1845 and shows his development as an artist. The article identifies further Gill works, plus six Cawthorne portraits of #AboriginalAustralians in the British Museum.

The Art Gallery of South Australia has lately put online a few more artworks by colonial artist George French Angas.
"Extinct Crater, Mount Gambier, 6th May 1844" is one I'd written about (from a book image in B&W). Seeing it in colour supports my contention that "Blue Lake" is by Gill not Angas (and it is not Blue Lake).

Seven years into my study of Australian colonial artist S T Gill, I've been getting more frequent enquiries about works for sale. I'd responded up till now but now felt I needed to set a better boundary.
I'm a retired systems designer. My motivation for the Gill project is to contribute to knowledge commons and the public good – hence the near exclusive focus on works held by public collecting institutions. This keeps me busy enough. (Web site now updated to that effect.)
As it's the first day of the month, here's Gill's "August": https://coombe.id.au/S_T_Gill/S_T_Gill's_The_Seasons_and_The_Months.htm#133

The Arqueología mexicana magazine published the first of three volumes of the Historia Tolteca-Chichimeca. This very important colonial document hasn't been published since 1976. So it's a must have for the mesoamericanist community.

Consider to suscribe the magazine in electronic format. It's cheaper !
