Omschrijving
'...an excellent contextualization for Spilsbury's art...a valuable addition to the study of Evangelicalism [that] should help art historians and religious historians understand each other's work better.' Anne Stott, Open University, UK, author of Hannah More: The First Victorian
'As well as biographical and evaluative chapters [this book] contains a useful and well-researched listing of [Maria Spilsbury's] works: there is much work between these covers. Further, [Charlotte Yeldham] compellingly illustrates that there was real interchange between evangelicals and the world of art, an interchange in which women had a place, as well as opening up the dimension of art, religion, and women in Irish history. These are fields of ongoing discussion to which this makes an important contribution.' Wesley and Methodist Studies
’Maria Spilsbury (1776-1820): Artist and Evangelical is an indispensable resource for Spilsbury scholarship, and for the present may well be her best extant biography and catalogue raisonné. In addition to illuminating her life and work, it also serves to underscore the often overlooked influence of Evangelicalism in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century British painting. In her book, Yeldham delivers a robust, welcome, and long overdue examination of this artist, and I hope that it will instigate continued scholarship concerning both Spilsbury and the interplay between Evangelicalism and visual culture.’ Caa.reviews
