This book was released on 2019-12-20 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The founder of the nineteenth century French school of Neo-Impressionism, Georges Seurat devised the technique of Pointillism, portraying the play of light with tiny brushstrokes of contrasting colours. A man of studious habits and a scientific mind, Seurat employed his original technique to create huge compositions with tiny, detached strokes of pure colour too small to be distinguished when looking at the entire work, though when viewed from a distance, shimmered with brilliance. In spite of his short life, he left behind him an incredible body of work that would have a lasting impact on the history of modern art.

This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventeenth century painter Nicolas Poussin founded the French Classical tradition, working the majority of his career in Rome. He specialised in history paintings, depicting scenes from the Bible, ancient history, and mythology, which are notable for their narrative clarity and dramatic force. Poussin was a man of contrasts; sensual, yet austere and intellectual, prizing reason, order and dispassion above all else. His art is a reconciliation and synthesis of these traits, setting an example of what would become the standard for a long tradition of academic art, continuing until the end of the nineteenth century. His influence was far-reaching, winning the approval of the Neoclassical masters, the Post-Impressionists and even modernists like Pablo Picasso.

Book excerpt: The Father of English painting, William Hogarth aspired to an art that would engage and delight ordinary citizens, rather than educated connoisseurs and critics, whom he despised.

Famous examples such as ‘A Harlot's Progress’, ‘A Rake's Progress’ and ‘Marriage A-la-Mode’ were reproduced en masse as popular engravings and were accessible to all. His work also provided a visual influence to the satirical works of England’s great men of letters.

This book was released on 2020-05-02 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important northern Italian artist of the early Renaissance, Andrea Mantegna was a student of Roman archaeology and the son-in-law of Jacopo Bellini. A pioneering master of perspective, Mantegna used pictorial devices such as extreme foreshortening, lowering the horizon to create greater monumentality and rendering his figures as more rounded and modelled, with Donatellian naturalism. His masterpieces are renowned for their minute attention to detail, rendering rocky and metallic landscapes with a fundamentally sculptural approach to painting. His paintings were highly sought after by Europe’s royal houses, while Dürer, Rubens and Rembrandt are just a few of the artists that copied and learnt from his works. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail.

This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chief exponent of French Neoclassical painting in the mid-nineteenth century, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres is noted for his cool, meticulously drawn works, representing the stylistic antithesis of the contemporary Romantic school. As a monumental history painter, Ingres sought to perpetuate the classical tradition of Raphael and Poussin, though today it is his portraits that are recognised as his greatest legacy. The extraordinary clarity of expression and microscopic detail of his work, rendered at a consistently, almost unbelievable quality won him many admirers. His expressive distortions of form and space made him an important precursor of modern art, influencing Degas, Picasso and Matisse. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail.

This book was released on 2021-12-04 with total page 3760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A master of French Naturalism, the nineteenth century novelist Alphonse Daudet is chiefly remembered today as the author of sentimental tales of provincial life in the south of France. Unlike his fellow Naturalists, Daudet upheld that the world in its diversity was misrepresented by novelists that concentrated only on its bleaker aspects. He is celebrated for his objective interest in external detail, as well as his compassionate personality and his reverence for the mystery of all things and individuals. Daudet tempers his satire with pity, drawing comparisons in style to the works of Dickens and Maupassant.

Book Synopsis Delphi Complete Works of Herodian (Illustrated) by : Herodian of Antioch
Download or read book Delphi Complete Works of Herodian (Illustrated) written by Herodian of Antioch and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2020-03-26 with total page 1111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flourishing in the third century, Herodian of Antioch wrote a ‘Roman History’, covering the period of the Roman Empire from the death of Marcus Aurelius (AD 180) to the accession of Gordian III (238). It was a century of turbulent strife, when a succession of frontier crises and a disastrous lack of economic planning established a pattern of military coups and increasing cultural divides. Herodian’s history is one of the few texts charting this period to have survived and it is more or less complete. Principally written for the benefit of people in the Greek-speaking Roman Empire, its veracity is often distorted by rhetoric and stereotypes; however, it is an indispensable text for any student of this important period of Roman history. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Greek texts. This comprehensive eBook presents Herodian’s complete extant works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
