—It is under this See also:head that the See also:chief See also:evidence of the See also:modern See also:art revival will be found. First it should be noted that there are very few societies designed for the See also:artistic improvement of artists. The Artists' Society has already been mentioned; and the Art Workers' Guild, which meets at See also:Clifford's See also:Inn See also:- HALL
- HALL (generally known as SCHWABISCH-HALL, tc distinguish it from the small town of Hall in Tirol and Bad-Hall, a health resort in Upper Austria)
- HALL (O.E. heall, a common Teutonic word, cf. Ger. Halle)
- HALL, BASIL (1788-1844)
- HALL, CARL CHRISTIAN (1812–1888)
- HALL, CHARLES FRANCIS (1821-1871)
- HALL, CHRISTOPHER NEWMAN (1816—19oz)
- HALL, EDWARD (c. 1498-1547)
- HALL, FITZEDWARD (1825-1901)
- HALL, ISAAC HOLLISTER (1837-1896)
- HALL, JAMES (1793–1868)
- HALL, JAMES (1811–1898)
- HALL, JOSEPH (1574-1656)
- HALL, MARSHALL (1790-1857)
- HALL, ROBERT (1764-1831)
- HALL, SAMUEL CARTER (5800-5889)
- HALL, SIR JAMES (1761-1832)
- HALL, WILLIAM EDWARD (1835-1894)
Hall, provides meetings, from which the public is excluded, where profitable discussions take See also:place on questions of See also:craft and See also:design. But, as a See also:rule, the art society, of which only artists are members, is organized for See also:exhibition purposes or for the See also:protection of interests. With regard to those societies of popular and educational intention the old Society of Arts in the Adelphi, founded in 1754, enjoys a See also:good See also:record. Numerous lectures on art subjects have from See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)
- TIME, MEASUREMENT OF
- TIME, STANDARD
time to time been given, and in 1887 a See also:- SCHEME (Lat. schema, Gr. oxfjya, figure, form, from the root axe, seen in exeiv, to have, hold, to be of such shape, form, &c.)
scheme was devised by which awards are made to student-workers in design.
The Society for the Encouragement of the See also:Fine Arts (Conduit See also:Street) has also laboured since its See also:foundation in 1858 to increase a technical knowledge, its members holding conversazioni at various picture galleries. The Artists' and Amateurs' Conversazione, instituted in 1831, which used to meet at the Piccadilly Galleries and is now defunct, carried out a similar See also:plan. Two other societies, now obsolete, should be mentioned whose method were directly educational. The See also:Arundel Society, which fo many years promoted the knowledge of art by copying an See also:publishing important See also:works of See also:ancient masters, issued to it members on See also:payment of See also:annual subscriptions, was eventually See also:wound up on the last See also:day of 1897. The Arundel See also:Club, founded in 1904, continues the aim, but with a wider See also:- SCOPE (through Ital. scopo, aim, purpose, intent, from Gr. o'KOaos, mark to shoot at, aim, o ic07reiv, to see, whence the termination in telescope, microscope, &c.)
scope, reproducing works of art rendered somewhat inaccessible by being in private collections. The See also:International Chalcographical Society, formed for the study of the See also:early See also:history of See also:engraving, also did useful See also:work. Another association of painters, sculptors, architects and engravers, the Graphic Society, ceased on the 29th of See also:October 1890. This was one of the most interesting of societies, rare works of art being exhibited and discussed at its meetings. A very active educational See also:body, originated in 1888, namely the Royal See also:Drawing Society, has for its definite See also:object the teaching of drawing as a means of See also:education. The methods of instruction are based on the facts that very See also:young See also:children try to draw before they can write, and that they have very keen See also:perception and retentive memory. The society aims, therefore, at using drawing as a means of developing these innate characteristics of the young, and already nearly 300 important See also:schools follow out its See also:system. See also:Lord See also:Leighton, See also:Sir Jobn See also:Millais, and Sir See also:Edward Burne-See also:- JONES
- JONES, ALFRED GILPIN (1824-1906)
- JONES, EBENEZER (182o-186o)
- JONES, ERNEST CHARLES (1819-1869)
- JONES, HENRY (1831-1899)
- JONES, HENRY ARTHUR (1851- )
- JONES, INIGO (1573-1651)
- JONES, JOHN (c. 1800-1882)
- JONES, MICHAEL (d. 1649)
- JONES, OWEN (1741-1814)
- JONES, OWEN (1809-1874)
- JONES, RICHARD (179o-1855)

- JONES, THOMAS RUPERT (1819– )
- JONES, WILLIAM (1726-1800)
Jones took an active See also:part in the society's labours. The Art for Schools Association, founded in 1883, has also done steady work in endeavouring to provide schools with works of art. These are chiefly reproductions of See also:standard works of art or of See also:historical and natural subjects. The See also:wave of See also:enthusiasm aroused by Mr See also:Ruskin's teachings caused Societies of the See also:Rose to be founded in See also:London, See also:Manchester, See also:Sheffield, See also:Birmingham, See also:Aberdeen and See also:Glasgow; but some of these eventually ceased active work, to be revived again, however, by the Ruskin See also:Union, formed in the See also:year of the See also:great writer's See also:death (1900). Most of these societies were formed in 1879; but it should not be forgotten that two years earlier the See also:Kyrle Society was started with the object of bringing the refining and See also:cheering influences of natural and artistic beauty to the homes of the See also:people. Under the See also:presidency of See also:Earl Brownlow, the See also:Home Arts and See also:Industries Association continues a work which was started in 1884, and anticipated much of the See also:present system of technical education. Voluntary teachers organize classes for working people, at which a See also:practical knowledge of art handiwork is taught. Training classes for voluntary teachers are held at the studios at the See also:Albert Hall, as well as an annual exhibition. An interesting type of society has been established in See also:Bolton, See also:Lancashire. Under the See also:title of an Arts Guild the members, numbering over 200, devote themselves to the See also:advancement of See also:taste in municipal improvements.
