The Arts Club was founded by Charles Dickens among others in 1863 in London, England, as a meeting place primarily for artists and writers. It was a hub of the arts during the 19th century and, although a social venue, it was known to be a place where influence could be exerted and careers developed. It was seen as the power house behind the dealings of the Royal Academy. Its members and guests included Dickens, Millais, Whistler, Kipling, Monet, Rodin, Degas and Turgenev. However, as the arts developed into Modernism it failed to keep pace, and its continuing allegiance to the Academy gave it a distinctly old-fashioned air. |
