ACADEC Art Section 4
This document summarizes an artwork by Yinka Shonibare titled "Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters: Design" which references Francisco Goya's famous print "The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters." Shonibare recreated Goya's print nearly exactly but in large scale color photographs and added his choice of Dutch wax cloth for the main figure's clothing. Goya's print depicted a man asleep at a desk surrounded by threatening creatures and commented on the dangers of ignorance. Both works reference the phrase "the sleep of reason produces monsters."

- 2. THE MODEL MILLIONAIRE OSCAR WILDE(1854-90) Influenced by Walter Pater’s concept of Aestheticism. Walter Pater-art for art’s sake ‘’beauty for beauty’s sake’’ Wilde-serious & hardworking perfectionist in his work.
- 3. Hugh Erskine- unemployed,good-looking Popular with men and women. Had every accomplishment expect that of making money. Tried many jobs but of no use.
- 4. Hugh erskine A delightful, ineffectual young man with a perfect profile and no profession. In love with Laura Merton- daughter of a retired Colonel. Handsomest couple in London Colonel fond of Hughie. Told him to bring ten thousand pounds of his own. On his way to Holland Park one day. Thought of meeting Alan Trevor. Trevor was a painter, rough follow, freckled face, red ragged beard. Real mastery of brush, his pictures were eagerly sought after.
- 5. Alan Trevor a painter Wonderful life-size picture of a beggar-man. Beggar standing on a raised platform in a corner of a studio. Beggar- a wizened old man, wrinkled face, most piteous expression. A coarse brown cloak, all tears and tatters. Thick boots-patched and cobbled. One hand leant on a rough stick. Other held out his battered hat for alms.
- 6. Discussion between Hugh and Alan regarding payment for the beggar. Alan says shilling an hour for the beggar. Two thousand Guineas for the picture. Hugh- painters, poets and physicians always get guineas. Alan says not to disturb him, smoke a cigarette. Servant came and told the frame-maker wanted to speak to him, he went. Beggar took rest on the wooden bench. Hugh slipped a sovereign into the beggar’s hand. Alan arrived, Hugh took his leave, blushing a little at what he had done.
- 7. Hugh spent the day with Laura Hugh got a charming scolding for his extravagance. That night visited Alan at Palette Club. Finished the picture? Hugh asked. Alan said the old model is devoted to you. Asked who you are, where you live, what your income is, what prospects you have. Hugh said he have got heaps of old clothes at home Alan says he will tell the beggar about the offer.
- 8. Old beggar man-Baron Hausberg One of the richest men in Europe. Could buy all London to-morrow without overdrawing his account. Has a house in every capital. Dines off gold plate. Can prevent Russia going to war when he chooses. Alan’s great friend, buys all his pictures. He invests your sovereign, pays interest every six months. Hugh-dare not to show my face. Feeling unhappy, walked home.
- 9. Next morning At breakfast, servant brought him up a card on which Baron name written. Thought he has come for an apology. But old gentlemen with gold spectacles and grey hair came and asked for Hugh. Hugh begged the apology. Gave a sealed envelope. Outside was written- ‘a wedding present to Hugh and Laura from an old beggar’. Inside was a cheque for € 10,000 In marriage Alan-best man, Baron made a speech. Alan said:’millionaire models are rare’ but ‘model millionaires are rarer still.
