Book Synopsis Dictionary of Pastellists Before 1800 by : Neil Jeffares
Download or read book Dictionary of Pastellists Before 1800 written by Neil Jeffares and published by Unicorn Publishing Group. This book was released on 2006 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Records of some 20,000 pastels in public collections or known from exhibition and auction catalogues, including pastels by anonymous artists*Entries on 1250 named artists*5000 reproductions (2000 in color), many never before published, and references to all known reproductions of other pastels*A survey placing the major artists of the various schools in an historical context and explaining the technical features of the pastel*A list of exhibitions from 1704 to 2005, including livrets and contemporary criticism for the major exhibitions in Paris, London and elsewhere before 1800*A topographical index locating pastels in public collections worldwide*An index of some 7000 sittersPastels are lluminous and beautiful beyond all other pictures, wrote the English eighteenth century pastelist Francis Cotes, describingthe sensual appeal of this special dust rubbed into paper which has enchanted connoisseurs ever since. But the history of pastels is one of compounded mistakes and misattributions: these intimate portraits, whose subjects range from dynasts to servants, have been neglected for the better researched areas of old master drawings and oil painting. This Dictionary sets out to establish, for the first time, a convincing body of knowledge to help identify and attribute works by both major artists and the obscure "petits-maStres." It is an essential academic resource for art historians, a vital tool for collectors and dealers, and a treasure-trove for anyone interested in costume or social and political history. Pastels from the French school account for more than half the Dictionary, representing most of the more important artists such as Vivien, Nattier, La Tour, Perronneau, Labille-Guiard and VigHe Le Brun. But there were other major pastelists, such as Copley, Russell, Mengs, Carriera and Liotard fro
Book Synopsis La collection de tapisseries de Louis XIV by : Jean Vittet
Download or read book La collection de tapisseries de Louis XIV written by Jean Vittet and published by Faton. This book was released on 2010 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sa mort, en 1715, Louis XIV laissait l'une des plus belles collections de tapisseries jamais constituées. En effet, en cinquante ans, ce souverain réunit un ensemble sans égal de plus de 2 500 pièces de haute et basse lisse, tissées d'or et d'argent pour la plupart, qu'il constitua non seulement en effectuant de prestigieuses acquisitions auprès de grands collectionneurs comme le duc d'Epernon, Nicolas Fouquet et Mazarin, mais aussi en passant d'innombrables commandes aux manufactures royales nouvellement fondées, oeuvres qui vinrent rejoindre les vénérables tentures héritées de ses ancêtres. Parmi les plus prestigieuses séries, figuraient ainsi la célèbre tenture de L'Histoire de Scipion de Jules Romain, tissage bruxellois qui avait appartenu à François 1er, plusieurs exemplaires des Actes des Apôtres d'après Raphaël, dont l'un fait pour Charles 1er d'Angleterre, issu de la fabrique de Mortlake, ou encore les superbes Chasses de Maximilien, dessinées par Bernard van Orley, aujourd'hui conservées au musée du Louvre. Parallèlement, les productions des manufactures des Gobelins et de Beauvais, inspirées principalement par Charles Le Brun, mais aussi par Nicolas Poussin et Pierre Mignard, vinrent enrichir la collection destinée désormais à la magnificence des maisons royales. L'inventaire de ces tapisseries, rédigé en 1716 après la mort du roi, encore jamais édité, est ici pour la première fois présenté dans sa totalité, commenté et surtout accompagné de l'identification de très nombreuses pièces encore conservées en France ou dans le monde, avec plus de quatre cents photographies en couleur, la plupart très récentes. Aboutissement de dix années de recherche, cette édition du texte de 1716 par Jean Vinet, Inspecteur des collections du Mobilier national, et Arnauld Brejon de Lavergnée, Directeur des collections, est assortie, pour chaque notice, d'une description complémentaire des tapisseries, d'un historique, d'une bibliographie et d'un commentaire. Aussi souvent que possible, la localisation des pièces est précisée avec leur reproduction. Une introduction générale et un index facilitent l'usage de ce catalogue sans équivalent sur le sujet, préfacé par Bernard Schotter, Administrateur général du Mobilier national.
