This band of brothers, through their artistic and entrepreneurial efforts, established the images of the war at sea that were central to the understanding their contemporaries had of events - images that endure to this day. In this unprecedented book, Nicholas Tracy reveals the importance of the self-employed artist to the study of a nation at war. He includes lively accounts of serving officers, retired sailors, and academy-trained artists who, often under the threat of debtor's prison, struggled to balance the standards of art with the public desire for heroic, reassuring images. Containing over eighty illustrations, Britannia's Palette explores a varied and exciting collection of paintings that reveal the poignancy of the human experience of war. 606 $aFirst Coalition, War of the, 1792-1797$vArt and the war 606 $aMarine painting, British$y18th century 606 $aMarine painting, British$y19th century 606 $aNapoleonic Wars, 1800-1815$vArt and the wars 606 $aNaval battles in art 606 $aSecond Coalition, War of the, 1798-1801$vArt and the war 606 $aWar artists$zGreat Britain$vBiography 615 0$aFirst Coalition, War of the, 1792-1797 615 0$aMarine painting, British 615 0$aMarine painting, British 615 0$aNapoleonic Wars, 1800-1815 615 0$aNaval battles in art. 615 0$aSecond Coalition, War of the, 1798-1801 615 0$aWar artists 676 $a758/.99402745 686 $a355.49$2z 700 $aTracy$b Nicholas$f1944-$01716175 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807208203321 996 $aBritannia's palette$94111340 997 $aUNINA
