简介

鲁珀特·班尼（Rupert Bunny，1864年9月29日-1947年5月25日）澳大利亚印象派画家，是他那一代最成功的外籍艺术家之一。1864年，班尼出生于维多利亚州的圣基尔达，他于1884年前往英国，并在伦敦的卡尔德隆艺术学校学习。18个月后，他去到了让·保罗·劳伦斯（Jean-Paul Laurens）在巴黎的工作室学习。尽管班尼被誉为“理想主题的华丽的色彩画家和出色的博学画家”、“澳大利亚人创作的最雄心勃勃的沙龙画的创作者”，但事实上，在世纪之交的几十年里，班尼没有像其他澳大利亚人一样获得了评论界的好评，也没有享受过在巴黎应经历的艺术关系。但即使如此，这些都不影响邦尼是一位出色的画家，他对节奏构成非常感兴趣，受到了一系列世纪末潮流的启发，尤其是象征主义与其对生活的想象力的亲和力。他精心创作了个性化的作品陈述，从富有想象力的画面、宏伟的沙龙认可的神话，到充满活力的装饰寓言和巴黎休闲的美女时代画作，他无疑是最受欢迎的，其主要作品有：《甜美睡眠》、《海洋牧歌》、《花园长椅》、《贝尔舞》等。

C.F.的肖像

While Bunny remains best known for this sensuous, dreamy images of women of the belle epoque, Bunny also worked in portraiture throughout his career. While he received major commissions of significant society figures in the early twentieth century Bunny's earlier portraits feature his associates, family and friends and his subjects are telling of the connections that Bunny's made throughout his time in Europe.One of Bunny's exceptional early portraits is 'Portrait of C.F. Keary' (c1891). The subject of this work is Charles Francis Keary (1848-1917) a British author of works of history, philosophy and later fiction and poetry. He was also a medal winner (in 1894) of the Royal Numismatic Society and worked in coin and medals department at the British Museum.'Portrait of C.F. Keary' reveals the impact of Whistler's essentialism, tonalism and emphasis on design on Bunny's early portrait work. The painting's overall subdued aesthetic and Bunny's approach to portraiture as a means of recording fact, are elements distinct from the colour emphasis and psychological and symbolist undercurrents that otherwise characterised his work from this period.
