Welcome to my project on arguably Australia's most recognisable colonial artist, Samuel Thomas Gill. It's a blend of #catalogueRaisonné, biography, historical narrative and map atlas. The scope is from Gill's arrival in #SouthAustralia in 1839 up to his early time at the Victorian gold diggings in 1852-53.

Project update: Six articles on the diggings are now complete except for pending visits to Sydney and Adelaide to check on some undigitised sources. Good progress on at least two articles for 1839-1844 gap.

Later this year I'll write some more reflective material and some of particular interest post 1853.

You can follow the hashtag #S_T_Gill for updates - you don't need to follow me.

New Article: Reimagining the Catalogue Raisonné as Generative Digital Scholarship

This paper explores how digital catalogues raisonnés can transform traditional formats, enabling transparency, inclusivity, and dynamic narratives. A fresh take on revisiting historical events in the digital age.

#FakeOrFortune is being repeated on #ABCTVAU and the William Nicholson “Glass Jug” episode reflects badly on the expert. A clear gulf between weight of evidence and critical thinking on the one hand and an “expert’s feeling” on the other.

The ST Gill Project: An ongoing project of original research on Samuel Thomas Gill (1818-1880), Australian colonial artist, presented in online formats.

Read About the ST Gill Project – how it started, how it's going, rationale, scope, approach, method, content, how to access content and acknowledgements.

I've just added an "about" page: https://coombe.id.au/S_T_Gill/about.htm

Sometimes one extra data point makes a lot of difference to the cataloging.

The identity of "EJ" has been a mystery to me for 5 years but now I have a pretty good theory. The new data point was an #S_T_Gill sketch titled "Australian warfare, native skirmish" which I can now slot into the Gill catalogue. The EJ theory has a ripple out effect on some other artworks.

1847 was the year S T Gill produced many of his most recognisable watercolours - and on a vast range of subjects.

This article is an overarching outline of 1847 with links to catalogue articles on Gill's major efforts that year. I’ve also built in more “timeline” navigation to give a better feel of narrative.

The Harry Bertoia catalogue raisonné is up and accessible online for free, the ideal method for these kinds of things: https://catalogue.harrybertoia.org/. Online catalogues like this one allow for frequent updating as new works and scholarship emerge. The Georgia Museum of Art has four works in it, including this monoprint.

Greg Smith's #CatalogueRaisonné of #ThomasGirtin (1775-1802) is breathtaking. In a short life Girtin packed in much invention and innovation - from The White House at Chelsea to soaring architectural exteriors with light itself as the subject.

Here's a wash drawing with me once attributed to #JMWTurner but which possibly (based on paper type, size and technique) could be a Turner/Girtin 'co-production' of c.1794. If it isn't it doesn't matter: it cost me a measly £2.

Sharing a work labor of love. The Martin Wong Catalogue Raisonné (MWCR): https://exhibits.stanford.edu/martin-wong, introduced by: https://youtu.be/-umaPRkUeGY. The MWCR is notable for being a free, updatable, online version of an otherwise cost-prohibitive print genre; it highlights over 800 works of art by Martin Wong, a Chinese-American artist who was celebrated for his exploration of the multiplicity of race, culture, and sexuality. #CatalogueRaisonné #AsianAmericanArt #DigitalExhibit #MartinWong #Art
