Dial: The First Number of the Series
by John Gray
'Dial: The First Number of the Series' Summary
The Dial was a short-lived but influential art magazine that aimed to showcase the innovative and experimental art of the late 19th century. The first issue, published in 1889, featured contributions from the editors, Charles Ricketts and Charles Shannon, along with R. Savage and the poet John Gray. The magazine's content reflected the burgeoning aesthetic movement and the intellectual and artistic ferment of the late Victorian era. Articles and essays explored themes of art, literature, and the evolving artistic landscape, with a focus on Symbolism, Decadence, and the Pre-Raphaelite aesthetic. The Dial served as a platform for emerging artists and writers, providing a space for them to express their ideas and engage in critical dialogue with their contemporaries. While its lifespan was brief, The Dial left a lasting impact on the artistic landscape of the time, contributing to the development of a distinct artistic sensibility that would influence the art of the 20th century.Book Details
