Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring more than 150 treasures from several of the world’s most prestigious collections, Making Marvels explores the vital intersection of art, technology, and political power at the courts of early modern Europe. It was there, from the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries, that a remarkable outpouring of creativity and learning gave rise to exquisite objects that were at once beautiful works of art and technological wonders. By amassing vast, glittering collections of these ingeniously crafted objects, princes flaunted their wealth and competed for mastery over the known world. More than mere status symbols, however, many of these marvels ushered in significant advancements that have had a lasting influence on astronomy, engineering, and even international politics. Incisive texts by leading scholars situate these works within the rich, complex symbolism of life at court, where science and splendor were pursued with equal vigor and together contributed to a culture of magnificence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rosenborg Castle houses one of the finest treasure collections in Europe. The castle, which was built as a summer residence in Copenhagen, Denmark, by Christian IV of Denmark-Norway in the period 1606-1634, contains, among other things, the coronation regalia, jewelry, weapons, and objects of rock crystal, hardstones, ivory, and narwhal tusk. With Rosenborg's two oldest inventories from 1696 and 1718 as the point of departure, the present work charts the making of the treasure collection and its contents and offers a unique insight into the items of the collection in words and images. The Treasure Collection at Rosenborg Castle is the result of years of laborious research. The author, Jørgen Hein, combines his immense knowledge about the items and the historical facts of the treasure collection with a vivid and engrossing narrative, and with its three exclusive volumes the work offers a fascinating foray into the world of pomp and circumstance that surrounded the Danish-Norwegian kings in the period between 1500 and 1900.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After more than 15 years in business Tomasso Brothers are delighted to be hosting their spectacular debut sculpture exhibition at Adam Williams Fine Art, New York. To mark this seminal exhibition of more than 40 important works they have produced a luxurious catalogue, which aims to represent and describe the sculptures through sophisticated photographs and informative catalogue descriptions. The content of Scultura and the accompanying catalogue is a carefully selected range of sculptural works in marble, bronze and terracotta, from the early Renaissance to the Neo-Classical period. Many of the entries epitomize the artistic tastes and cultural ideals of their time and provide us with a rich visual journey through 500 years of sculpture. From the newly discovered powerful profile portrait of King Ferrante of Naples circa 1472 to the sublime beauty of Giambologna's 'Urania' and Bartolini's divine-like representation of the Emperor Napoleon, we can travel through the history of European sculpture and feast on Gods, Godesses, Emperors and Kings through the presentation of these enigmatic sculptures and the mythology, connoisseurship and Royal patronage that has created them.

Gustave Flaubert Since the spectacular purchase of the Agfa Foto-Historama collections, the Museum Ludwig in Cologne can lay claim to the earliest daguerreotypes from Berlin, albums which once belonged to Alexander von Humboldt, photographs by Desire Charnay of Mexico and Maxime Du Camp of Egypt, Auguste Salzmann of Jerusalem, Charles Clifford of Spain, August F. Oppenheim of Greece, photographic incunabula by David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson, as well as prints by Julia Margaret Cameron, Nadar and Franz Hanfstaengl. The inventory also includes 200 caricatures and illustrations on the behavior of people in front of and behind the camera and numerous documents and autographs from Daguerre to Talbot, from Hermann Biow to Laszlo Moholy-Nagy. Erich Stenger obtained from August Sander a rare original `Stammappen' on the work of "Citizens of the 20th Century". The Gesellschaft Deutscher Lichtbildner (GDL) was then honored to present him with a portfolio of more than 50 portraits of 1949/50 members. In the 1960s the following were added to the collection: the personal estate of Hermann Krone of Dresden, photographs by Baldus and Charles Negre, more than 300 portraits of artists, writers and politicians shot by Hugo Erfurth in Dresden and Cologne, photographs by Erich Salomon, Fritz Henle, etc. This unique inventory and the history of this collection is said to be the oldest collection on the cultural history of photography in German-speaking countries. Now for the first time Facts provides an overview of the entire collection. Co-published with Museum Ludwig, Cologne.

Book excerpt: English description: The main themes of the volume are: Visual Representations of Religious Concepts; Early Modern Epigraphic Collections; Genealogy and Princely Self-Presentation; Language and Prestige in Inscriptions, from 1517 until 1648; Death and Burial Culture; The Culture of Funerary Monuments in the Rhine-Main-Moselle-Region. Each of these themes is explored in an interdisciplinary pair of essays (epigraphic plus either historical, art historical or philological), in which the transition, around 1500, from the Late Medieval to the Early Modern periods is the main focus. In addition, the volume includes individual studies on the following: Inscriptions on Weapons and Armoury; Languages used in Inscriptions in England, 1300 to 1700; The Monuments of the Old Jewish Cemetery in Worms; The Adaptation of Antique rhetorical conventions of prince-pleasing. Finally, several brief reports describe ongoing epigraphic research projects in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Latvia and Russia. English summaries of all contributions are included. German description: Aus dem Inhalt: Visualisierung von Glaubensinhalten, fruhneuzeitliche Inschriftensammlungen, Genealogie und landesherrliche Selbstdarstellung, Sprache und Prestige in Inschriften von 1517 bis 1648, Tod und Begrabnis, Sepulkralkultur des Rhein-Main-Mosel-Gebiets. Diese Themen werden jeweils in zwei epigraphischen und historischen bzw. philologischen Beitragen behandelt, in denen besonders der Ubergang zwischen Mittelalter und Neuzeit um 1500 im Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit steht. In Einzelstudien werden Inschriften auf Waffen, die Inschriftensprache in England von 1300 bis 1700, die Denkmaler des alten judischen Friedhofs in Worms und die Rezeption antiker Konventionen des Herrscherlobs untersucht. Inschriftenprojekte in Danemark, Schweden, Finnland, Lettland und Russland werden in Kurzberichten charakterisiert.

Built up and expanded by three generations from the turn of the century until today, the permanent collection catalog describes a unique cross section of the artistic development of all periods of the Nymphenburg Porcelain Factory from the incomparable figurines of F. A. Bustelli and D. Auliczek from the 18th century, to classicistic figurines and tableware of J. P. Melchior and F. von Gartner up until the first years of Art Nouveau. The collection, on exhibition at the Nymphenburg Palace, Munich, is comprehensively documented in this book for the first time. This publication illustrates all areas of the factory's work and thus, provides an indispensable basis for general ceramics research as well as genuine artistic enjoyment for lovers of porcelain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Dr Guy Delmarcel was Curator of Textiles at the Brussels Koninklijke Musea voor Kunst en Geschiedenis (1975-1990) and Professor of History of Art at the Catholic University of Leuven (1981-2002). He passionately devoted his career to the study of Flemish tapestry. His intensive research on the 'Mobile Frescoes of the North' resulted in numerous articles, books, lectures, and exhibitions, thereby unlocking tapestry to both scholars and the general public. Guy Delmarcel has now been given emeritus status. The Department of Archaeology, History of Art and Musicology decided to honour its former chairman by offering him a Festschrift entirely dedicated to his beloved field of research. Fourteen renowned tapestry scholars from all over the world willingly accepted the invitation to celebrate their esteemed colleague. Throughout the centuries Flemish tapestry has eagerly been collected. In the Middle Ages and Early Modern Times the European elite spent fortunes on these lavish works of art. A number of essays compiled in the present volume focus on the patronage and collections of European kings and noblemen. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries European and American museums became important collectors of Flemish tapestry, as is demonstrated by some museological studies presented in Studies in Honour of Guy Delmarcel. This penetration by Flemish tapestry of the public realm has obviously necessitated iconographic and stylistic studies. A number of new analyses are gathered in the Festschrift.
