Roger Fry's Modernist Makeover of Italian Master, Giotto di Bondone, is the subject of this episode of Art in Isolation...
Out of all the most eminent artistic and literary figures to emerge from the ‘Bloomsbury Group’ it was perhaps Roger Eliot Fry who held the most significant influence over his peers. His exhibition, 'Manet and the Post-Impressionist', displayed the works of Modern Masters such as Édouard Manet, Vincent Van Gogh, Henri Matisse and Paul Gaugin.
Post script:
Philip now believes that this is not a depiction of St Martin, rather St Francis portrayed in a similar act of giving away his cloak. As is often the case in Art History, confusion can sometimes result when deciphering iconography and Philip apologies for adding to it on this occasion.

That "rule" is not universal. Because sometimes less is less. And sometimes more is more. It depends on the specific case. In this one, it wasn't like Giotto was over-painting. Some painters DO over-paint, of course, but a big part of Giotti remains endearingly closer to folk art than anything more showy or frivolous. And Fry? In this picture, he under-painted. Those stick-figure faces of his may be minimalist and novel for the time, but they lack spirit and power.

So many modern poets, especially Eliot , pound, David Jones and modern composers , Stravinsky , Schoenberg, Webern, and modern British composers like Birtwistle, Maxwell Davies, Alexander goehr favoured the medieval enabling them to avoid the excesses of late romanticism, for a cleaner expressive aesthetic.

Every time I look at it I see new images. I hope to one day visit the Musee d’Orsay in Paris where the original is. I swear I see images of alien heads in the upper left clouds and Pinky and Blue Boy in the left and middle clouds puffy clouds. I have a collection of small versions of those two in pottery, print and needlework on either side of the painting. Collect what you like, right? 🥰🎨☕️🍩

Thank you Phillip ( and team). What a marvellous staircase and room, and what a delicate painting by Fry ( after Giotto). I agree that Fry has simplified the shapes but he also used a much darker and warmer palette, even his green is not overly cool.I doubly appreciate this video today because we are back into a 'snap lockdown' here in Victoria (Australia) for five days, and so such a treat is doubly uplifting. ( By 'snap' I mean eight (8) hours warning.) At least wea re able to focus on beautiful things.

At 5:18 it's either self-delusion or the spin of a salesman that takes hold of this man, because he's unable/unwilling to admit his bedroom picture looks juvenile compared with the original Giotto.
@marcsmirnoff936
@marcsmirnoff936 3 года назад
Of course, there are other possible motives for why the gentleman overvalues the Roger Fry. (A simple error in judgment, a moment of bad taste, etc.) But I 100% agree with your ranking of the Giotto over the Fry. To me, the Fry looks very flat in comparison. Giotto's superiority can be seen most directly in the faces-his people feel alive and they draw you in. Fry's idea of faces oversimplifies his people-prevents them from having a spirit. Or life. (His portrait of V. Woolf, though, is wonderful.)
@petsRawesome1
@petsRawesome1 3 года назад
Agreed. There are good reasons the thing hangs in a bedroom, and the comparison is made five minutes in, rather than at the beginning. Then again, Philip kept both of us us mesmerized until 5:18... art sales is also an art form, and we are dealing with a master here!

It's also seems likely that Fry was working from a black & white image of the original, and perhaps wasn't familiar with the actual colours involved. Maybe not, but it could have also been a much smaller image, which would also lead to having less detail in his own. But you can certainly see the modern influence throughout the whole painting.

Hi Philip. You put together such informative films. During this lockdown I am also learning a lot about art from a website www.christianart. This clip is interesting as it showed a piece by Van Gogh that I hadn't come across before; The Road Menders. Only yesterday, I came across some of his charcoal paintings he drew of people praying. Also found his Angelus and The Good Samaritan based on works of other masters just as today's painting was by Roger Fry. So fascinating. Take care.

Beautiful foggy day! Another interesting story - never knew about Fry but how cool about his exhibitions and coining "post impressionism". Regarding the Giotto, however, I have to say, those two figures look like women to me. Of course I get the copy-ness seeing them side by side, but did Fry take his further by making the figures women or am I just seeing something that's not there? Thanks as usual, Philip et al!

Fry has copied a fresco of "St Francis giving his mantle to a poor man" in the upper church nave cycle in Assisi , ascribed by most scholars to three different masters these days ,but not Giotto .
@philipmould7898
@philipmould7898 3 года назад
Thank you. You are correct. And it was acknowledged in the intro blurb above. Simone Martini did St Thomas in the lower church at Assisi as I’m sure you know. As to authorship, possibly. But as almost 50% of the surface detail is irreversibly degraded, conclusive attribution is impossible. It is certainly by a proto-Renaissance master of the same innovative circle however - but I couldn’t usefully go there in a 7 minute film mainly about Fry.
