Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Della Robbias in America When Cavallucci and Molinier published in 1884 a catalogue of all the then known works of the Della Robbias, four hundred and eighty-one in number, they knew of only one in America. By 1902, when Miss Crutt-well's book on Luca and Andrea della Robbia appeared, the total list had been increased to nearly eleven hundred. Of these only ten were in this country. At the present time America is known to possess more than seventy examples of Della Robbia work. As I have in mind some day to publish a general catalogue of all the known works of the Robbia School, I might well defer until that day the publication of those which have reached this country. But as new examples are constantly arriving from Europe, in many cases improperly attributed and offered at enormous prices, I have persuaded myself that the present publication may be of service to collectors in this very special field of art. It is my hope also that some reader of this volume may in turn render me a service and direct my attention to Robbias still unknown to me. I take this opportunity of thanking Dr. W. R. Valentiner of the Metropolitan Museum of Art for directing my attention to various examples in private collections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The glazed terracotta technique invented by Luca della Robbia, along with his exceptional skill as a sculptor, placed him firmly in the first rank of Renaissance artists in the fifteenth century. This quintessentially Florentine art - taking the form of dazzling multicoloured ornaments for major buildings, delicately modelled and ingeniously constructed freestanding statues, serene blue-and-white devotional reliefs, charming portraits of children, and commanding busts of rulers, along with decorative and liturgical objects - flowed in abundance from the Della Robbia workshops for a hundred years. Developed further by each generation, the closely held technique achieved new heights of refinement and durability in modelling and colour, combining elements of painting and sculpture into a new and all but eternal medium. In the 19th century, revived interest in the Renaissance and in the Della Robbia brought their works into major collections beyond Italy, particularly in England and the United States. Recently, renewed attention from art historians, backed by sophisticated technical studies, has reintegrated the Della Robbia into the mainstream of Renaissance art history and illuminated their originality and accomplishments. This beautifully illustrated book invites readers to experience one of the great inventions of the Renaissance and the enduring beauty it captured.
