Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spain's greatest museum, The Prado, in your pocket. When it opened on November 19, 1819, The Museo del Prado, in Madrid, consisted entirely of works from the Spanish royal collections. Numerous treasures have been added since opening day, but the unique strengths of the Prado's collection can still be traced to that original core of remarkable works?many acquired or commissioned from the artists themselves during the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. The Prado is internationally renowned for its unsurpassed collection of masterpieces by Diego Velázquez, Francisco de Goya, Hieronymus Bosch, El Greco, and Peter Paul Rubens. As this richly illustrated little volume makes clear, it also possesses a brilliant collection of paintings and drawings by other artists throughout Europe as well as fascinating decorative arts and notable sculptures.

Book excerpt: The Museo del Prado is the main Spanish national art museum, located in central Madrid. It features one of the world's finest collections of European art, based on the former Spanish Royal Collection, and unquestionably the best single collection of Spanish art. Founded as a museum of paintings and sculpture in 1819, it also contains important collections of other types of works. El Prado is one of the most visited sites in the world, and is considered one the greatest museums of art in the world. The numerous works by Francisco de Goya, the single most extensively represented artist, as well as by Diego Velázquez, El Greco, Titian, Peter Paul Rubens and Hieronymus Bosch are some of the highlights of the collection. Comprehensively showcasing the permanent collection of the Prado, this magnificent book is the first of its kind to be published by the Prado Museum, covering the collection from Ancient Sculpture to the 19th century. The book is arranged chronologically by the date of the artworks featured, creating a rich dialogue between artists from different schools working in the same period. There are sections looking in depth at specific painters (Velazquez, Titian, Greco and Bosch), and at the themes of still life, portraits and religious paintings. The Prado Masterpieces can be read as a complete history of art, as illustrated by the careful selection of highlights from the Prado's Collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archer M. Huntington (1870-1955), son of one of the wealthiest men in America, decided that his passion for Spain had to be reflected by creating a museum and a library that would make his knowledge of Spanish art and culture available to his compatriots and that is how he founded in 1904 The Hispanic Society of America in New York. A section of more than two hundred of these treasures is being presented at important museums, such as the Museo del Prado (Madrid), el Palacio de Bellas Artes (Mexico City), and the Albuquerque, Cincinnati and Houston museums in the United States. This volume gathers the content of this great exhibition including a detailed file of each piece and an introductory essay telling the story of the Hispanic Society's creation and the scope of its collections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant but frustrated painter is drawn into an elaborate forgery scheme as he slips into the life of a seventeenth century master in this acclaimed novel. Chaz Wilmot makes his living cranking out old-master parodies for ads and magazine covers. When he’s offered a job restoring a Venetian palace fresco, he’s skeptical to say the least—the job seems to be more forgery than restoration. But seduced by the challenge, Chaz executes the job brilliantly. This feat attracts the attention of Werner Krebs, a shady art dealer who becomes Wilmot’s patron. Wilmot is suddenly working with a fervor he hasn’t felt in years, but without warning, he finds himself reliving moments from the past. At first, they are moments from his own childhood. But soon, he believes he can travel back to the 17th century where he embodies the renowned Spanish artist Velazquez. Unsure if these excursions into history are real, Wilmot slowly enters a secret world of gangsters, greed, and murder. At the center of it all is his mystery patron. But is Werner a criminal mastermind plotting a priceless forgery, or the man who will save Wilmot from obscurity and madness? Miraculously inventive, this book cements Gruber’s reputation as one of the most imaginative and gifted writers of our time.
