Book excerpt: Why You Will Like This Guidebook: ** It's selective rather than inclusive. It highlights three dozen paintings out of the hundreds. It offers a "guided tour" instead of a card catalogue approach.** It takes advantage of the Uffizi's layout, which displays the paintings chronologically, to give you a sense of the profound shifts in religious worldview from the 14th to the 16th centuries. ** It invites you to look thoughtfully at certain paintings, to notice where your attention goes, and to explore your own responses as a vehicle for understanding and deepening your engagement with the art. "The Uffizi Gallery" will serve as a ready companion for your armchair travels as well as a hands-on guidebook for your on-site visits when you're in Tuscany. Based on my years of guiding travelers through the Uffizi, I've developed a keen sense of what engages people, and what bores them to death. I've chosen paintings that first caught my interest more than twenty years ago-and never lost it. Read this guide before your visit, take it with you when you go, and read it again whenever you want to relive your Renaissance art adventures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Palazzo Vecchio to the Forte Belvedere, through the Uffizi, the Vasari Corridor, the Pitti Palace, and the Boboli Gardens, Florence is honeycombed with a series of public art collections that is unparalleled in Europe for its size and for the variety and value of its holdings. Taken all together, the museums of Florence are one of the wonders of the world, for the spiritual values that they embody as much as for the works they contain. The painting collections in the state museums of Florence are unequalled for their quality, historical significance, and for the sheer number of works; never before have they been presented in a publication of such splendid technical quality. Thus the reader can trace the various phases and great moments of Florentine painting, including lesser known works of the seventeenth century; can appreciate the presence of masterpieces from other, perhaps unknown, schools; and can examine details different from the standard ones consecrated by tradition. Text in English and Italian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The riveting story of a museum director caught in a web of local and international intrigue while secretly pursuing a forgotten Renaissance painting-the Boston Raphael. On the eve of its centennial celebrations in 1969, the Boston MFA announced the acquisition of an unknown and uncatalogued painting attributed to Raphael. Boston's coup made headlines around the world. Soon, an Italian art sleuth began investigating the painting's export from Italy, challenging the museum's ownership. Simultaneously, experts on both sides of the Atlantic lined up to debate its very authenticity. The museums charismatic director, Perry T. Rathbone, faced the most challenging crossroads of his career. The Boston Raphael was a media sensation in its time, but the full story of the forces that converged on the museum and how they intersected with the challenges of the Sixties is now revealed in full detail by the director's daughter.

Download or read book An Art Lover's Guide to Florence written by Judith Testa and published by Northern Illinois University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-15 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No city but Florence contains such an intense concentration of art produced in such a short span of time. The sheer number and proximity of works of painting, sculpture, and architecture in Florence can be so overwhelming that Florentine hospitals treat hundreds of visitors each year for symptoms brought on by trying to see them all, an illness famously identified with the French author Stendhal. While most guidebooks offer only brief descriptions of a large number of works, with little discussion of the historical background, Judith Testa gives a fresh perspective on the rich and brilliant art of the Florentine Renaissance in An Art Lover's Guide to Florence. Concentrating on a number of the greatest works, by such masters as Botticelli and Michelangelo, Testa explains each piece in terms of what it meant to the people who produced it and for whom they made it, deftly treating the complex interplay of politics, sex, and religion that were involved in the creation of those works. With Testa as a guide, armchair travelers and tourists alike will delight in the fascinating world of Florentine art and history.
