Description: Founded and compiled by the German art dealer S. (Siegfied) Bing (1838-1905) Artistic Japan was published simultaneously in English, German [Japanischer Formenschatz] and French [Le Japon Artistique]. Bing’s declared aim in producing the journal was to “stimuler l’intérêt des amateurs”and “exercer une influence sur le goût, la culture, l’art et la constitution des collections publiques et privées” (stimulate the interest of amateurs and to influence the taste, culture, art and formation of public and private collections) in the art of Japan. One of the publication’s chief sponsors was the fashionable London retail firm Liberty & Co. who had a full-page colour advertisement for their art fabrics on the back page of every issue of the English edition. The journal contains a series of illustrated essays on architecture, engraving, Hokusai’s “Man-gwa”, the decoration of swords, Ritsuo and his School, netsukés and okimonos, the theatre in Japan, Hiroshigé, the poetic tradition in Japanese art, Animals in Japanese art, and Korin. Among contributors to Artistic Japan were Edmond de Goncourt, Roger Marx, Victor Champier, and Eugène Guillaume. The editor of the English edition was Marcus B. Huish (1843-1921). |

Title: Les Arts
Place of Publication: Paris, France France
Publisher: Goupil & Cie, monthly
Frequency: Monthly
Period of Publication: 1902-1920
Period covered by AHR net: Volumes 1-15, 1902-1919
Type of Publication: Journal
Description: Les Arts. Revue Mensuelle des Musées, Collections Expositions, Published monthly by Goupil & Cie. (publication was suspended between Oct. 1914 and March 1916 inclusive). The editors and co-proprietors of Les Arts were Michel Manzi (1902-1914) and Maurice Joyant (1916-1922). The journal covered the fine and decorative arts, both early and modern, and contained long well-illustrated articles, including an annual report on the Paris Salons. Les Arts was, however, rather conservative and contained little on the avant-garde movements active in Paris during years of its publication. This possibly reflected the taste of its editors, who were art dealers, collectors and co-owners of Galerie Manzi-Joyant, a fine art gallery and publishing house in Paris. Manzi was an friend of Edgar Degar who painted him in c.1889, and Joyant was a close friend of Toulouse-Lautrec and organised retrospectives of his work in 1902, 1907 and 1914. |

Title: The Century Guild Hobby Horse
Place of Publication: London, England England
Publisher: Chiswick Press, etc.
Frequency: Quarterly
Period of Publication: 1884-1892
Type of Publication: Journal
Description: The official journal of the Century Guild of Artists. Founded by the architect and designer Arthur Heygate Mackmurdo (1851-1942), the Guild was one of the earliest Arts and Crafts groups in Britain. The magazine contained essays on art, literature, and occasionally architecture and music. The principle contributors included Mackmurdo, Selwyn Image (the author of numerous articles), Arthur Galton, May Morris, Herbert P. Horne, Christina Rossetti, and Hubert Parry. The Hobby Horse was much admired by William Morris. By fusing art and literature in a magazine whose layout and design was a conscious aesthetic statement, it was precursor of pioneering Modernist magazines such as The Savoy, The Yellow Book and The Dome. See: Imogen Hart. ‘The Arts and Crafts Movement’ The Century Guild Hobby Horse (1884-94), The Evergreen (1895-7), and The Acorn (1905-6) in The Oxford Critical and Cultural History of Modernist Magazines.

Title: Trend in Design of Everyday Things vol. 1, no. 1, Spring 1936
Place of Publication: London
Publisher: Trend Publications Ltd.
Period of Publication: 1936
Type of Publication: Journal
Description: Trend in Design of Everyday Things [cover title Trend in Design] was the official quarterly of the Design and Industries Association (DIA). It was short-lived, running to only to issues, and is therefore little-known. Contributors included Nikolaus Pevsner on the British pottery industry; Noel Carrington on the history of the DIA; and Elizabeth Denby on the Exhibition of Everyday Art at the Royal Institute of British Architects. Also includes articles on the restyling of Sears Roebuck's "Coldspot" refrigerator by Raymond Loewy, and on wood and metal bookshelves designed by Gropius-Pritchard. Notable among the companies that advertised in the magazine were Isokon, Gordon Russell Ltd., Heal's, and Duncan Miller. |
