Download or read book Dosso's Fate written by Dosso Dossi and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1998 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dosso Dossi has long been considered one of Renaissance Italy's most intriguing artists. Although a wealth of documents chronicles his life, he remains, in many ways, an enigma, and his art continues to be as elusive as it is compelling. In Dosso's Fate, leading scholars from a wide range of disciplines examine the social, intellectual, and historical contexts of his art, focusing on the development of new genres of painting, questions of style and chronology, the influence of courtly culture, and the work of his collaborators, as well as his visual and literary sources and his painting technique. The result is an important and original contribution not only to literature on Dosso Dossi but also to the study of cultural history in early modern Italy.

Book excerpt: Dosso's rich color schemes are akin to those of his fellow North Italian Titian; he learned something about innovative composition from Raphael and about the force of the body from Michelangelo. But his paintings have a very individual appeal. In leafy natural surroundings containing an array of animals and heavenly bodies, events unfold that are often enigmatic, enacted by characters whose interrelationships elude definition.

Book Synopsis Ancient Armour and Weapons in Europe by : John Hewitt
Download or read book Ancient Armour and Weapons in Europe written by John Hewitt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-25 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Armour and Weapons in Europe: From the Iron Period of the Northern Nations to the End of the Seventeenth Century; Supplement, Comprising the 15th, 16th, and 17th Centuries It is by no means contended that a complete examina tion of these later centuries would not be desirable; but, to effect this, our little work would be so much augmented in bulk and costliness, that our chief hope of its usefulness, a wide circulation among artists and students, (to a certain number of whom the expensiveness of a book is a seri ous Obj ection, ) would be materially diminished. We have therefore resolved to adopt the plan already indicated: in carrying it into effect, we shall endeavo ur, by giving numerous references, to make it an easy task for the stu dent to complete the investigation by his own researches. It may be further remarked that, on quitting the four teenth century, the fashions Of armour are much more easy to be understood than before. Defences of plate being now generally adopted, the differences of suits are principally differences of form; and, as remains of real arm our and weapons of this time are to be found in many Collections.
