This book was released on 1991 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 250 year period of Renaissance and Baroque printmaking in Europe was as varied and innovative as those of its sister arts of painting and sculpture. From the mid-15th century through the 17th century Europe burgeoned with artistic activity. This diversity is well-represented in these collections of woodcuts, engravings, etchings, and drypoint etchings by 65 artists working north and south of the Alps, from Germany to Italy. Highlighted are works by Albrecht Durer, Titian, Schiavone, and other Mannerist artists, and Rembrandt van Rijn and other 17th century Dutch and Flemish artists.

Book Synopsis Luxury Arts of the Renaissance by : Marina Belozerskaya
Download or read book Luxury Arts of the Renaissance written by Marina Belozerskaya and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2005-10-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today we associate the Renaissance with painting, sculpture, and architecture—the “major” arts. Yet contemporaries often held the “minor” arts—gem-studded goldwork, richly embellished armor, splendid tapestries and embroideries, music, and ephemeral multi-media spectacles—in much higher esteem. Isabella d’Este, Marchesa of Mantua, was typical of the Italian nobility: she bequeathed to her children precious stone vases mounted in gold, engraved gems, ivories, and antique bronzes and marbles; her favorite ladies-in-waiting, by contrast, received mere paintings. Renaissance patrons and observers extolled finely wrought luxury artifacts for their exquisite craftsmanship and the symbolic capital of their components; paintings and sculptures in modest materials, although discussed by some literati, were of lesser consequence. This book endeavors to return to the mainstream material long marginalized as a result of historical and ideological biases of the intervening centuries. The author analyzes how luxury arts went from being lofty markers of ascendancy and discernment in the Renaissance to being dismissed as “decorative” or “minor” arts—extravagant trinkets of the rich unworthy of the status of Art. Then, by re-examining the objects themselves and their uses in their day, she shows how sumptuous creations constructed the world and taste of Renaissance women and men.

Book Synopsis The Renaissance of Etching by : Catherine Jenkins
Download or read book The Renaissance of Etching written by Catherine Jenkins and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Renaissance of Etching is a groundbreaking study of the origins of the etched print. Initially used as a method for decorating armor, etching was reimagined as a printmaking technique at the end of the fifteenth century in Germany and spread rapidly across Europe. Unlike engraving and woodcut, which required great skill and years of training, the comparative ease of etching allowed a wide variety of artists to exploit the expanding market for prints. The early pioneers of the medium include some of the greatest artists of the Renaissance, such as Albrecht Dürer, Parmigianino, and Pieter Bruegel the Elder, who paved the way for future printmakers like Rembrandt, Goya, and many others in their wake. Remarkably, contemporary artists still use etching in much the same way as their predecessors did five hundred years ago. Richly illustrated and including a wealth of new information, The Renaissance of Etching explores how artists in Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, and France developed the new medium of etching, and how it became one of the most versatile and enduring forms of printmaking. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana}

Book Synopsis Hieronymus Cock by : Joris van Grieken
Download or read book Hieronymus Cock written by Joris van Grieken and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hieronymus Cock (1518-1570) was an Antwerp painter and printmaker. Together with his wife, he was one of the first to establish a publishing house for prints. From 1548 their firm “At the Sign of the Four Winds” issued hundreds of important etchings and engravings. Prints after frescoes and paintings by Italian artists Raphael and Bronzino, the first series of classical ruins, antique sculpture, as well as designs by such Northern artists as Maarten van Heemskerck and Frans Floris were distributed all over Europe and helped to spread Renaissance ideals of beauty. It was Cock who spotted the talent of Pieter Bruegel, an artist who would eventually supply Cock with more than sixty designs for prints.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the second in a series of catalogues devoted to documenting the permanent collections in The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City, Missouri. In this volume on ink-printed graphics, more than six thousand examples are cited, ranging from the 15th to the 20th century. Included are works by many of the leading print-makers of the Western world, some of the impressions being unique and others exceedingly rare." "From the dawn of printing is a group of thirty-two hand-colored woodcuts by unknown German artists, one of the most intact engravings of The Last Supper by the Dutch Master I.A.M. of Zwolle, and both states of Mantegna's Battle of the Sea Gods (Right Half). Among 16th century works are one of the finest known impressions of Durer's St. Jerome in His Study, a unique hand-colored engraving by the Flemish Master S, a singular engraving by Girolamo Mocetto, and chiaroscuro woodcuts by Ugo da Carpi, Agostino Veneziano, and Hendrick Goltzius. Notably representative of the 17th century are a number of Rembrandt's etchings, a splendid impression of Bellange's Martyrdom of St. Lucy, Hollar's Four Seasons, and mezzotints by Blooteling and Dusart. Among distinguished works of the 18th century are a first-edition set of Goya's Caprichos, Descourtis's two finest color intaglios, and etchings of 1748 by Piranesi, as well as a twenty-three-volume bound set of the first Paris edition of all of his antiquarian prints, his sons' additions, and works by their associates. Of the 19th century are Dr. Thornton's Temple of Flora series, Goya's Disasters of War, a superb impression of a Pissarro intaglio, and a unique annotated proof in the complete hand-colored set of Daumier's lithographed Les Cent Robert Macaire. Remarkable among 20th century holdings are proofs of Feininger's Green Bridge and Villon's Red Umbrella, famous posters by Bakst and Thorn Prikker, striking etchings by Nolde, an early lithograph and a monumental acquatint by Picasso, and Lichtenstein's Modern Head series in several media." "Each of one hundred numbered entries written by George L. McKenna discusses a single print, several impressions, or portions of series. Information on the date, size, state, signature, inscriptions, catalogue raisonne numbers, watermark, provenance, and exhibition and publication history of each print precedes the extended text. That text, in essay form, presents relevant biographical detail, analysis of imagery, description of style, and germane critical comment footnoted with reference to publications cited in the bibliography at the end of the book. Depending upon the appearance of the original prints, illustrations are in full color or black and white in facsimile or reduced scale." "Following the one hundred entries is a list of some six thousand other prints in the collection, arranged alphabetically according to nationality, medium, and artist. The title, date, measurements, catalogue raisonne and accession numbers of every print are specified, as well as the names of the donors of gifts. Two hundred and ninety of the prints are reproduced in small black and white plates in close proximity to their locations in the list." "In addition, George L. McKenna has written an introduction which recounts how the print collection has been formed through the years, beginning with the first purchases in 1932."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
