Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Included in this inventory is large-scale sculpture in wood and stone, from sites scattered throughout Western Europe and executed roughly between the middle of the eleventh and the end of the twelfth century. Elements from such well-known monuments as Saint-Lazare at Autun, Saint-Pierre at Cluny, Saint-Michel at Cuxa, and churches of Metz, Parthenay, Provins and Reims figure in this catalogue, as do pieces with less familiar provenances like Saint-Laurent l'Abbaye in Nivernais, Saint-Melaine at Preuilly-sur-Claise in Touraine, Saint-Eyre at Toul, and Saint-Vincent near Digne in Provence. Each entry, including basic data, description and analysis, is illustrated by one or more photographs. A list of pieces presumed to be of doubtful authenticity concludes the volume, along with provenance and iconographic indexes.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The diversity of sculpture preserved at the Herefordshire School has fascinated art historians for many years. Although much of the sculpture has been published and discussed in academic journals, there has been no comprehensive work on the subject - until now. Thurlby focuses attention on the sculpture form the school in its building context, whilst also seeking parallels from other buildings and in other media. This book will appeal to both the specialist and non-specialist due to its style and wide ranging discussion. Thurlby draws in comparisons from Britain and abroad, discusses the inspiration for many of the pieces, the patrons and the motives for their patronage, the training and role of craftsmen, and so on. Over 240 illustrations complement the text.

Download or read book Understanding Art written by Flavio Conti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Art is a two-volume, fully illustrated work that strives to explain and discuss four important periods in the history of western art--the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque. It aims to create a sense of understanding, recognition, and appreciation of art by analysing, within the four periods, three distinct artistic genres: painting; sculpture; and architecture. Besides the excellence of the illustrations, one of the great virtues of this book is its clear and concise explanations. It is truly an excellent first stop for anyone embarking on a serious study of art--or anyone wishing to refresh his or her memory of the facts about the art history of the western world.

Download or read book Romanesque Sculpture An Ecstatic Art written by Susan Marcus and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architectural sculpture, virtually abandoned for five hundred years following the demise of the Roman Empire, was revivified on the portals of Romanesque churches in eleventh and twelfth-century France and Spain. Long overdue is a reappraisal of those images whose aesthetic of rendering the invisible visible establish them as valuable witnesses to the culture of Europe in the Middle Ages. Countless losses, mutilation through wilful destruction, centuries of accumulated grime, and a dearth of studies in English have impeded the deserved realization and appreciation of these magnificent works of art. Through illustration and illuminative interpretation, Romanesque Sculpture An Ecstatic Art fills the void by tracing the beginnings, maturation, and efflorescence of monumental sculptured facades in the short-lived Romanesque era. Depictions on them are mirrors of the age: sophisticated theological messages, monastic life, the cult of relics, pilgrimages, crusades and politics. The survey considers too the sculptors, mostly anonymous, who in adapting models from several media - both antique and current - created a unique visual vocabulary. The beauty of the sculptures comes to the fore. The stones live ...

Download or read book High Romanesque Sculpture in the Duchy of Aquitaine, C. 1090-1140 written by Anat Tcherikover and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anat Tcherikover unveils a chronological order in the remarkably diverse world of High Romanesque sculpture in central-western France. She traces a regional school which formed against the background of the powerful feudal principality of Aquitaine, and was itself commensurably important andtherefore representative of the main artistic trends of the time. These involved a constant tension between two different sculptural modes. On the one hand, architectural decorations in the spirit of the eleventh century manifested a final flowering of great intricacy. On the other, monumentalfigure sculpture was being revived independently at a fast pace, leading directly to proto-Gothic. A combination of political prominence, economic prosperity, and a keen response to ecclesiastical reform made the school one of the most innovative of its time.

Download or read book The Victoria and Albert Museum written by Elizabeth James and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive bibliography and exhibition chronology of the world's greatest museum of the decorative arts and design. The Victoria and Albert Museum, or South Kensington Museum as it used to be known, was founded by the British Government in 1852, out of the proceeds from the Great Exhibition of 1851. Like the Exhibition, it aimed to improve the expertise of designers, and the taste of the public, by exposing them to examples of good design from all countries and periods. 2,500 publications have to date been produced by, for, or in association with the V&A. The National Art Library, which is part of the Museum, has prepared this detailed catalogue, supplemented by a secondary list of 500 other books closely related to the V&A. The 1,500 exhibitions and displays recorded include those held in the main Museum and at its branches, the Bethnal Green Museum (now the National Museum of Childhood) and the Theatre Museum, Covent Garden, and additionally those it has organized at external venues, in Great Britain and abroad. The exhibitions and publications are fully cross-referenced, and there are name, title and subject indexes to the whole work, as well as an explanatory introduction.
