Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of an Exhibition of Early American Engraving Upon Copper, 1727-1850 Until the late Mr. William S. Baker, in 1875, published his "American Engravers and Their Works," the existence of engravers upon copper in the American Colonies and States seems to have been persistently ignored by writers upon this branch of art. Volumes have been printed upon the engravers of Europe and of England, and the life and work of some of the most obscure among foreign engravers have been duly recorded; but the authors of these books fail to note that engravings upon metal was practiced in the American Colonies fully two hundred and fifty years ago; and that the work of some of the later American engravers in line is only surpassed by a few among the foreign master engravers. But, we must also admit that it is only within a comparatively recent period that Americans themselves have commenced to collect and to take an intelligent interest in the early engraved work of their own countrymen. So far as the earlier American prints are concerned there is sufficient ground for the seeming neglect to foreign writers upon engraving.

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.
