1990182787Tate Gallery 1990. Softcover. VG minimal shelf wear all pages clear and intact. Green paper stapled wraps with black lettering pp. 273-288 color illustrations. "Wright's Account Book includes many references to frames. This exhibition devoted to his work presents an opportunity to examine the frame designs prevailing during his career as well as those with which he was particularly associated. Prior to their arrival for the exhibition 108 of the 117 picture frames have been assessed. A further 36 frames on works by Wright not included in this exhibition have been studied. The survey thus comprises 144 frames representng well over a third of all his recorded paintings. These may be classified accordingly. First those considered original to the picture; second those which are stylistically contemporary but probably not orignal; third those of a distinctly earlier or later period than the picture. Results are summarized by style and status in the tab;e opposite. The most significant fact to emerge two centurues later is that just over half of Wright's paintings in this survey still appear to retain the frames originally made for them. It is perhaps Wright's provincialism which accounts for this relatively high ratio. Many of his pictures are at their most vulnerable to re-framing and those mainly in recent decades as Wright's art has been re-assessed. As well as general appreciation of the subject this study hopefully will encourage the spectator to contemplate the picture together with its frame ans assess their relative merits" - quoted from Introduction.
