'''Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux''' ([[May 11]], [[1827]], [[Valenciennes]] –[[October 12]], [[1875]], [[Courbevoie]]) was a French sculptor and painter. His early studies were under [[François Rude]]. Carpeaux won the [[Prix de Rome]] in [[1854]], and moving to [[Rome]] to find inspiration, he there studied the works of [[Michelangelo Buonarroti|Michelangelo]], [[Donatello]] and [[Andrea del Verrocchio|Verrocchio]]. Staying in Rome from [[1854]] to [[1861]], he obtained a taste for movement and spontaneity, which he joined with the great principles of [[baroque art]]. In [[1861]] he made a bust of [[Mathilde Bonaparte|Princess Mathilde]], and this later brought him several commissions from [[Napoleon III]]. He worked at the pavilion of [[Flora (goddess)|Flora]], and the [[Opéra Garnier]]. His group La Danse (the Dance, [[1869]]), situated on the right side of the façade, was criticised as an offence to common decency.

He never managed to finish his last work, the famous Fountain of the Four Parts of the Earth, on the Place Camille Jullian. He did finish the terrestrial globe, supported by the four figures of [[Asia]], [[Europe]], [[North America|America]] and [[Africa]], and it was [[Emmanuel Frémiet]] who completed the work by adding the eight leaping horses, the tortoises and the dolphins of the basin.

G'day Cas,


== Sculptures by Carpeaux ==
I've been frogging over the past few days, and the fungi season has definitely started! I have a coral fungi that I thought you would like for wiki, plus I also have a puff ball which I will upload later, will leave a message here when it is uploaded. Saw lots of fungi over the last few days, but only photographed the really interesting ones as I was using my small memory card, and wanted to leave some space for frogs.

==Neapolitan Fisherboy==
Thanks. --[[User:LiquidGhoul|liquidGhoul]] 10:41, 20 April 2007 (UTC)


Carpeaux submitted a plaster version of ''Pêcheur napolitain à la coquille'', the Neapolitan Fisherboy, to the [[French Academy]] while a student in [[Rome]]. He carved the marble version several years later, showing it in the Salon exhibition of 1863. It was purchased for [[Napoleon III]]'s empress, [[Eugénie de Montijo|Eugènie]]. The statue of the young smiling boy was very popular, and Carpeaux created a number of reproductions and variations in marble and bronze. There is a copy, for instance, in the Samuel H. Kress Collection in the [[National Gallery of Art]] in [[Washington D.C.]]
:There was another nearby (about half a metre) which was 8cm tall, so I would go with ''Ramaria lorithamnus''. It was taken in rainforest, was very little Eucalypt around. Do you want me to upload it to wiki? Thanks. --[[User:LiquidGhoul|liquidGhoul]] 11:38, 20 April 2007 (UTC)


Some years later, he carved the Girl with a Shell, a very similar study.

Carpeaux sought real life subjects in the streets and broke with the classical tradition. The Neapolitan Fisherboy's body is carved in intimate detail and shows an intricately balanced pose. Carpeaux claimed that he based the Neapolitan Fisherboy on a boy he had seen during a trip to [[Naples]].

Yes, [[Bobcat]] is next. Another editor already had book refs in place, so I'm just tweaking and supplementing. If I gave it a real heave, I could have it on FAC quickly, but I'll wait for Cougar to go. Plus I was becoming a little robotic editing in one area so much. The other problem is I don't have access to books myself, so I have to focus on low-hanging fruit (e.g., big mammals), as lots of abstracts will turn up. You'll notice I've added some Australian birds, for instance, but I need someone to add a print compendium to the references (nudge, nudge).

:In the same way that editors have gone through the planets to bring almost all of them through FAC, I think top-hit animal categories (e.g. ''[[Panthera]]'') should be gone through. The trouble is, with the absolutely top-hit articles (e.g. [[Lion]] and [[Tiger]]) there's almost too much out there and a single amateur won't know what to start with. I choose [[Jaguar]] first not just because it's my favourite cat, but because I guessed the material wouldn't be overwhelming. In the same vein, [[Leopard]] seems most appealing to do next. (But that raises relative emphasis and priority issues.) While on the subject, can you imagine walking through a forest and seeing one of these beasts?

== Brown Gerygone taxa ==

"it is not closely related to either true [[Old World Warbler]]s nor the New World Warblers, but belong rather to a corvid superfamily comprising many tropcial and australian passerines as well as [[crow]]s."

Watch either/or, neither/nor and verb agreement. [[User:Marskell|Marskell]] 07:18, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

:Well, I think it should be "parvorder" rather than superfamily and should be left simply as Corvida rather than dabbed as corvid, which might confuse people.[http://www.taxonomy.nl/Taxonomicon/TaxonTree.aspx?id=105476]

Now from what I know ''Russula emetica'' or ''Boletus calopus'' is a scientific name and its not really in english but in latin, so when Im translating names from polish to english I use ''Vomiting russula'' - not the scientific name, but when I got to [[Boletus calopus]] it doesnt have a english name, so thats when I get lost and I dont know what am I supposed to translate it to. Other thing - in [[Boletus]] there is a table with the picture, but its not named Boletus, but ''Bolete'', so is that the same thing?? or is boletus a scientific latin name and ''bolete'' a english translation?
This is really confusing, why cant you just name the articles english names, and make the latin scientific names just redirects, not the other way around...<br>

== Nomenclature of fungi ==

Hey there. I recently stumbled across an issue of ''Nova Hedwigia Beheift'' titled "the genera of fungi" (or was it agaricaceae?). It's filled to the brink with mind-numbing nomenclatural discussions of all the genera ever described (I think, anyway). Would it be any use if I looked up the specific ref or any specific genera? [[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 00:20, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

:That would be friggin' ''trés bién''. The first one that would be absolutely great to get a clarification on is ''[[Agaricus]]'' which was called ''Psalliota'' in many texts fro many years and I've been mystified as to why. Other articles I intend cleaning up are ''[[Amanita muscaria]]'', which is the one I intended taking to FA first but it just didn't come together well, ''[[Gyromitra esculenta]]'' as a future FA, ''[[Agaricus bisporus]]'' as a future FA, and cleaning up the destroying angels - ''[[Amanita virosa]]'', ''[[Amanita bisporiga]]'' and ''[[Amanita verna]]''. ''[[Boletus edulis]]'' would be a good one to check too. let me know if anything interesting pops up. I'll see ifd I can think of any other taxonomic quagmires later today. Work just got real busy :( cheers, [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]] | [[User talk:Casliber|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]] 02:01, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
::Generally, that's pretty arcane and only relevant to genus articles, or species that were tightly involving in defining them (for example, there seems to be an odd debate over the multiple type species for ''Amanita''). I'll look up ''Agaricus'', ''Amanita'' (since ''A. muscaria'''s the current type) and ''Psalliota''. I'll also dig up the ref so you can look it up yourself, with any chance. [[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 04:52, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
:::Cool, keen to see what pops up. cheers, [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]] | [[User talk:Casliber|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]] 05:17, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
::::I only quickly thumbed through it and noted the full ref (<small>{{cite journal| last=Donk| first=M.A.| title=The generic names proposed for Agaricaceae| journal=Beiheifte zur Nova Hedwigia| pages=1-320| volume=5| year=1962| issn= 0078-2238}}</small>) because I forgot about it until the last minute. ''Psalliota'' looks like a classic synonym case. It shares the same type with ''Agaricus'', and might be older. [[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 01:02, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

::Weird! I thought Linnaeus was calling all sorts of things ''Agaricus'' so I wonder how it could predate that really....anyway I am curious.cheers, [[User:Casliber|Casliber]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Casliber|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]]) 02:46, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I've finished up making the changes. I altered the lead quite significantly as it admittedly wasn't very well suited to its purpose. Have a look through and see what you think (and make sure I didn't leave any blaring errors). Thanks for your comments and I hope it will suffice now.

P.S. - If you are at all involved with what becomes a DYK, I've created several short articles on species in the genus [[Eurybia (genus)|Eurybia]] that may be of interest. One species was particularly interesting as it is critically endangered and only present along a 5 km stretch of river bank ([[Eurybia saxicastelli]]). They may not be long enough, but some were fascinating as I was compiling the information. Thanks!

== Your comments on [[Talk:Geological history of Earth]] ==

Ummhhh... do you wish me to mention about Ordovician and Silurian also. you said that tertiary and quaternary are renamed. may i know the source which specifies it. thanks, {{User|Sushant gupta}} 04:24, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

:It just looked odd that the in-between periods were omitted. If there is a reason for this then specify it. The article looks pretty good anyway. As far as the others, I can't recall the particular sources but google tehm and something shoudl arise. cheers, [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]] | [[User talk:Casliber|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]] 04:27, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
:: should i specify about Pre-cambrian, Phanerozoic and Cenozoic only instead of all those i have mention there in the article. {{User|Sushant gupta}} 04:30, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

:::The article is pretty long. If you do you'll be ok as long as you explain why you included only a few. Good luck.cheers, [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]] | [[User talk:Casliber|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]] 04:34, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
:::: sorry i didn't get this reply well. what did you mean- will i be ok or the article be ok. please don't mind i am just kidding though i didn't got your reply. ok should i sum up the section- '''yes or no'''. {{user|Sushant gupta}} 04:37, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

:That's fine - ''if'' you have only some periods, ''then'' you (or the article) will be ok as long as you explain why some have sections and some don't. cheers, [[User:Casliber|Casliber]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Casliber|talk]]&nbsp;'''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]]) 04:39, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
:: okay, i have the reason- those i have mentioned are quite significant. major changes took place during these periods as compared to others. if i will sit and mention each and every period then dear friend i'll go mad. then it won't look encyclopedic. it would look like a textbook. '''if you wish i can sum up that section'''. what do you say. Try to get the point dude. {{user|Sushant gupta}} 04:43, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Revision as of 01:07, 19 June 2007

Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux's marble sculpture 'Ugolino and his Sons', Metropolitan Museum of Art
La Danse (The Dance), Opera Garnier in Paris

Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (May 11, 1827, ValenciennesOctober 12, 1875, Courbevoie) was a French sculptor and painter. His early studies were under François Rude. Carpeaux won the Prix de Rome in 1854, and moving to Rome to find inspiration, he there studied the works of Michelangelo, Donatello and Verrocchio. Staying in Rome from 1854 to 1861, he obtained a taste for movement and spontaneity, which he joined with the great principles of baroque art. In 1861 he made a bust of Princess Mathilde, and this later brought him several commissions from Napoleon III. He worked at the pavilion of Flora, and the Opéra Garnier. His group La Danse (the Dance, 1869), situated on the right side of the façade, was criticised as an offence to common decency.

He never managed to finish his last work, the famous Fountain of the Four Parts of the Earth, on the Place Camille Jullian. He did finish the terrestrial globe, supported by the four figures of Asia, Europe, America and Africa, and it was Emmanuel Frémiet who completed the work by adding the eight leaping horses, the tortoises and the dolphins of the basin.

Sculptures by Carpeaux

Neapolitan Fisherboy

Carpeaux submitted a plaster version of Pêcheur napolitain à la coquille, the Neapolitan Fisherboy, to the French Academy while a student in Rome. He carved the marble version several years later, showing it in the Salon exhibition of 1863. It was purchased for Napoleon III's empress, Eugènie. The statue of the young smiling boy was very popular, and Carpeaux created a number of reproductions and variations in marble and bronze. There is a copy, for instance, in the Samuel H. Kress Collection in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.

Some years later, he carved the Girl with a Shell, a very similar study.

Carpeaux sought real life subjects in the streets and broke with the classical tradition. The Neapolitan Fisherboy's body is carved in intimate detail and shows an intricately balanced pose. Carpeaux claimed that he based the Neapolitan Fisherboy on a boy he had seen during a trip to Naples.
