Book excerpt: ANGELIC FACT NUMBER 100: Having wings doesn't make one noble; it simply makes one fly. Naya and Adam have nothing in common. Besides black wings. The same birthday. And fathers who are as close as brothers. But nothing else. Sweet, diligent Naya has always abided by the rules. Arrogant, uncivil Adam has made it his life's mission to break each one. She is the beloved daughter of an archangel. He is the guilds' resident bad boy . . . well, bad fletching. When Naya thrusts herself in Adam's life to request a place on his clandestine team of guardians, he turns her away. The last thing his unsanctioned squad needs is an archangel's attention, and the last thing he needs is a bubbly, blonde distraction with a sinful voice and soulful eyes. Problem is, Naya suddenly, and inexplicably, becomes the only thing he wants. Fans of steamy supernatural romance will want to scroll up and one-click to start reading the enemies-to-lovers trilogy finale today.

Book excerpt: Monet was the most typical and the most individual Impressionist painter. But while the painter was faithful and persevering in the pursuit of his motifs, his personal life followed a more restless course. Parisian by birth, he discovered painting as a youth in the provinces, where one of his homes, Argenteuil, has come to represent the artistic flowering and official establishment of Impressionism as a movement.

Book Synopsis Origins of Impressionism by : Gary Tinterow
Download or read book Origins of Impressionism written by Gary Tinterow and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 1994 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This handsome publication, which accompanies a major exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a lively and engaging account of the artistic scene in Paris in the 1860s, the years that witnessed the beginnings of Impressionism. For the first time the interactions and relationships among the group of painters who became known as the Impressionists are examined without the overworn art historical polarities commonly evoked: academic versus avant-garde, classicist versus romantic, realist versus impressionist. A host of strong personalities contributed to this history, and their style evolved into a new way of looking at the world. These artists wanted above all to give an impression of truth and to have an impact on or even to shock the public. And they wanted to measure up to or surpass their elders. This complex and rich environment is presented here - the grand old men and the young turks encounter each other, the Salon pontificates, and the new generation moves fitfully ahead, benignly but always with determination." "Origins of Impressionism gives a day-by-day, year-by-year study of the genesis of an epoch-making style." "Bibliographies and provenances are provided for each of the almost two hundred works in the exhibition, and there is an illustrated chronology. With more than two hundred superb colorplates, this informative survey is an essential work for both the general reader and the scholar."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Experience and Adventures of a Collector by : George Encil
Download or read book Experience and Adventures of a Collector written by George Encil and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Always, whenever George Encil acquired a new work of art, something completely ovbious, and yet very rare, then happened. He didn't just become the owner: rather he undertook a sponsorship. He has adopted a piece from the orphanage of the world's art supply and received it into his collection. In many cases, a deed was established which brought to the work an Interpretation which befitted it for the first time since the piece issued from the shaping hands of the artist. Each stage play, each performance of a piece of music, brings today nearly perfect expositions of its creator's intentions; only in the area of visual art, do people think it permissable to make a junk room out of the gallery, from which, in case of financial need, a piece can be thrown upon the slave block of the international art market. The author opposes this attitude wehemently. In the examples taken from the narrative of his experiences he demonstrates that with the acquisition of a work of art commences the duty of preserving it, of restoring it, finding the requisite frame, and alloting it a worthy place for itself. The exposition and proclamation of this conviction is the mission to which the author feels called. His report is an appeal for people to take an interest in the ever dwindling supply of works of art and he would prefer to see every collector become a godfather rather than a possessor; an interpreter rather than a beneficiary. This proclamation does not exempt public collections, in which, following exemplary interpretations, even stepchildren of art will be sheltered. A lifetime spent as a collector qualifies the author for this proclamation, and the presentation before us supports and explains this attitude.

Book Synopsis Odilon Redon. Catalogue Raisonné of the Paintings and Drawings. Vols. 1-4 by : Agnès Lacau St Guily
Download or read book Odilon Redon. Catalogue Raisonné of the Paintings and Drawings. Vols. 1-4 written by Agnès Lacau St Guily and published by Bibliotheque des Arts. This book was released on 1998 with total page 1581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The four-volume publication features 2,657 of Odilon Redon¿s paintings, pastels, watercolors, and drawings. Because Redon (1840¿1916) rarely dated his work, the catalogues are organized thematically to instead highlight significant elements of the artist¿s ¿uvre, and the reiteration of certain motifs. The first volume is dedicated to portraits and figures, while the second deals with myths, legends and Redon¿s overall interest in the fantastic. The third volume gathers Redon¿s still lives and bouquets, as well as his landscapes and marinescapes. The fourth and last volume features Redon¿s sketchbooks and design projects such as paravents, screens, tapisseries, or murals.
Book Synopsis French Paintings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art from the Early Eighteenth Century through the Revolution by : Katharine Baetjer
Download or read book French Paintings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art from the Early Eighteenth Century through the Revolution written by Katharine Baetjer and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2019-04-15 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication catalogues The Met’s remarkable collection of eighteenth-century French paintings in the context of the powerful institutions that governed the visual arts of the time—the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture, the Académie de France à Rome, and the Paris Salon. At the height of their authority during the eighteenth century, these institutions nurtured the talents of artists in all genres. The Met’s collection encompasses stunning examples of work by leading artists of the period, including Antoine Watteau (Mezzetin), Jean Siméon Chardin (The Silver Tureen), François Boucher (The Toilette of Venus), Joseph Siffred Duplessis (Benjamin Franklin), Jean-Baptiste Greuze (Broken Eggs), Hubert Robert (the Bagatelle decorations), Jacques Louis David (The Death of Socrates), the Van Blarenberghes (The Outer Port of Brest), and François Gérard (Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord). In the book’s introduction, author Katharine Baetjer provides a history of the Académie, its establishment, principles, and regulations, along with a discussion of the beginnings of public art discourse in France, taking us through the reforms unleashed by the Revolution. The consequent democratizing of the Salon, brought about by radicals under the leadership of Jacques Louis David, encouraged the formation of new publics with new tastes in subject matter and genres. The catalogue features 126 paintings by 50 artists. Each section includes a short biography of the artist and in-depth discussions of individual paintings incorporating the most up-to-date scholarship.

Book Synopsis Painting and Illumination in Early Renaissance Florence, 1300-1450 by : Laurence B. Kanter
Download or read book Painting and Illumination in Early Renaissance Florence, 1300-1450 written by Laurence B. Kanter and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 1994 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . By way of introduction to the objects themselves are three essays. The first, by Laurence B. Kanter, presents an overview of Florentine illumination between 1300 and 1450 and thumbnail sketches of the artists featured in this volume. The second essay, by Barbara Drake Boehm, focuses on the types of books illuminators helped to create. As most of them were liturgical, her contribution limns for the modern reader the medieval religious ceremonies in which the manuscripts were utilized. Carl Brandon Strehlke here publishes important new material about Fra Angelico's early years and patrons - the result of the author's recent archival research in Florence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Janet Backhouse, who originally assembled the evidence that revealed this long-forgotten masterpiece, introduces the Hours of Louis XII and its cycle of miniatures. Thomas Kren discusses the book's provocative miniature of Bathsheba bathing within the context of the king's own taste and predilections and within the then-emerging genre of the female nude in French painting. Nancy Turner considers the importance of Bourdichon's painting and illuminating technique in the Hours of Louis XII in relation to his other work. Mark Evans examines the individual histories of each of the surviving portions of the book. Lastly, an appendix reconstructs the book's devotional contents and program of illumination."--BOOK JACKET.
