Book excerpt: Hendrick Goltzius? 1558 in dem niederrheinischen Ort Bracht bei Venlo geboren? ging 1577 mit seinem im Xantener Exil lebenden lehrer, dem niederländischen Philosophen, Schriftsteller und Kupferstecher Dirck Volckertsz. Coornhert (1522?1590) nach Haarlem. Dort machte sich Goltzius alsbald selbstständig und gründete 1582 einen eigenen Verlag, der schnell mit Spitzenprodukten der Druckgraphik hervortrat und sich länderübergreifend einen Namen machte. Basis hierfür war Goltzius? technische Brillanz und Virtuosität in der Handhabung des Kupferstichs, aber auch des Farbholzschnittes. In seinen sog.?Meisterstichen? stellte er sein technisches Vermögen unter Beweis, indem er Meisterwerke der Renaissance in der Handschrift Dürers, van Leydens, Tizians, Bassanos oder Barroccis täuschend echt nachahmte. Bei diesen Blättern, wie auch bei seinen eindrucksvollen eigenen Bilderfindungen, ging es jedoch nicht nur um bloße Reproduktion oder um Nachahmertum eines Eklektizisten, sondern um kreative Invention. Fast sämtliche Graphiken weisen neulateinische Epigramme von Humanisten auf, die mit moralischen Botschaften die Bilder kommentieren.00Exhibition: Anhaltische Gemäldegalerie, Dessau, Germany (10.11.2017-07.01.2018).

Book Synopsis Rubens, Rembrandt, and Drawing in the Golden Age by : Victoria Sancho Lobis
Download or read book Rubens, Rembrandt, and Drawing in the Golden Age written by Victoria Sancho Lobis and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary history of Netherlandish drawing, focused on the training and skill of artists during the long 17th century With a lively narrative thread and thematic chapters, this book offers an exceptional introduction to Dutch and Flemish drawing during the long 17th century. Victoria Sancho Lobis discusses the many roles of drawing in artistic training, its function in the production of works in other media, and its emergence as a medium in its own right. Beautifully illustrated with some 120 drawings by artists including Rembrandt van Rijn, Peter Paul Rubens, Hendrick Goltzius, Gerrit von Honthorst, and Jacob De Gheyn, this book surveys current methodologies of studying these works and features a brief history of Dutch papermaking and watermarks as well as a glossary. Paying careful attention to materials and techniques, and informed by recent conservation treatments, Lobis explains how to look at these drawings as records of experimentation and skill, true windows into the artist’s mind.

Book Synopsis A Superb Baroque by : Jonathan Bober
Download or read book A Superb Baroque written by Jonathan Bober and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genoa completed its transformation from a faded maritime power into a thriving banking center for Europe in the seventeenth century. The wealth accumulated by its leading families spurred investment in the visual arts on an enormous scale. This volume explores how artists both foreign and native created a singularly rich and extravagant expression of the baroque in works of extraordinary variety, sumptuousness, and exuberance. This art, however, has remained largely hidden behind the facades of the city's palaces, with few works, apart from those by the school's great expatriates, found beyond its borders. As a result, the Genoese baroque has been insufficiently considered or appreciated.0Lavishly illustrated, 'A Superb Baroque' is comprehensive, encompassing all the major media and participants. Presented are some 140 select works by the celebrated foreigners drawn to the city and its flourishing environment. Offering three levels of exploration-essays that frame and interpret, section introductions that characterize principal currents and stages, and texts that elucidate individual works-this volume is by far the most extensive study of the Genoese baroque in the English language.00Exhibition: National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, USA (03.05.-16.08.2020) / Scuderie del Quirinale, Rome, Italy (03.10.2020 - 10.01.2021).

Download or read book Living Pictures written by Noa Turel and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-25 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant new interpretation of the emergence of Western pictorial realism When Jan van Eyck (c. 1390–1441) completed the revolutionary Ghent Altarpiece in 1432, it was unprecedented in European visual culture. His novel visual strategies, including lifelike detail, not only helped make painting the defining medium of Western art, they also ushered in new ways of seeing the world. This highly original book explores Van Eyck’s pivotal work, as well as panels by Rogier van der Weyden and their followers, to understand how viewers came to appreciate a world depicted in two dimensions. Through careful examination of primary documents, Noa Turel reveals that paintings were consistently described as au vif: made not “from life” but “into life.” Animation, not representation, drove Van Eyck and his contemporaries. Turel’s interpretation reverses the commonly held belief that these artists were inspired by the era’s burgeoning empiricism, proposing instead that their “living pictures” helped create the conditions for empiricism. Illustrated with exquisite fifteenth-century paintings, this volume asserts these works’ key role in shaping, rather than simply mirroring, the early modern world.
Book Synopsis Joachim Wtewael by : Anne W. Lowenthal
Download or read book Joachim Wtewael written by Anne W. Lowenthal and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1995 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dutch history painter Joachim Wtewael is widely admired for his astonishing small paintings on copper. The Getty Museum's Mars and Venus Surprised by Vulcan is one of his finest works in this unusually demanding medium. Though only eight inches high, this Mannerist painting contains eleven figures in three different spaces, captured in a dramatically charged moment from the famous story told by Ovid in his Metamorphoses. The author's detailed analysis of Wtewael's painting also serves as a fine introduction to Dutch art of the Golden Age. Illustrated with seventy reproductions of paintings, drawings, etchings, and decorative objects, Anne W. Lowenthal's study ranges over the broad historical and cultural context in which Mars and Venus was created.
Book Synopsis Njinga of Angola by : Linda M. Heywood
Download or read book Njinga of Angola written by Linda M. Heywood and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-25 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The fascinating story of arguably the greatest queen in sub-Saharan African history, who surely deserves a place in the pantheon of revolutionary world leaders.” —Henry Louis Gates, Jr. Though largely unknown in the West, the seventeenth-century African queen Njinga was one of the most multifaceted rulers in history, a woman who rivaled Queen Elizabeth I in political cunning and military prowess. In this landmark book, based on nine years of research and drawing from missionary accounts, letters, and colonial records, Linda Heywood reveals how this legendary queen skillfully navigated—and ultimately transcended—the ruthless, male-dominated power struggles of her time. “Queen Njinga of Angola has long been among the many heroes whom black diasporians have used to construct a pantheon and a usable past. Linda Heywood gives us a different Njinga—one brimming with all the qualities that made her the stuff of legend but also full of all the interests and inclinations that made her human. A thorough, serious, and long overdue study of a fascinating ruler, Njinga of Angola is an essential addition to the study of the black Atlantic world.” —Ta-Nehisi Coates “This fine biography attempts to reconcile her political acumen with the human sacrifices, infanticide, and slave trading by which she consolidated and projected power.” —New Yorker “Queen Njinga was by far the most successful of African rulers in resisting Portuguese colonialism...Tactically pious and unhesitatingly murderous...a commanding figure in velvet slippers and elephant hair ripe for big-screen treatment; and surely, as our social media age puts it, one badass woman.” —Karen Shook, Times Higher Education

Download or read book Graven Images written by Timothy A. Riggs and published by Block Museum. This book was released on 1993 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ninety prints in this exhibition catalog trace the evolution of several styles of engraving and etching over a crucial period. At the beginning of this time, engraving in Northern Europe was primarily a by-product of the goldsmith's workshop and the artist's studio. Its implications as a medium of reproduction were only beginning to be grasped, and the very idea of reproducing a work of art in another medium was scarcely defined. By the end of the period, engraving was the medium of choice for making reproductions of works of art in all media, and a range of styles had evolved that balanced reproductive fidelity, calligraphic virtuosity, and durability in the printing of an edition. This volume features three scholarly essays on the history of printmaking in the Netherlands and includes 116 b/w illustrations.
