Book Synopsis Gardens of the Iberian Peninsula by : Nadja Horsch
Download or read book Gardens of the Iberian Peninsula written by Nadja Horsch and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2023-11-22 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In garden research, Spanish and Portuguese green spaces are scarcely visible. This is a striking contrast not only to their diversity and quality but also to the global network of both countries, especially during the Early Modern period. To counterbalance this, specialists from Spain, Portugal and Germany gathered in 2021 on an international and interdisciplinary conference. In the Portuguese Palace of Queluz they discussed the fundamental issues of garden art on the Iberian Peninsula. Their contributions are collected in this book. They are proof of a cross-border transcultural approach, which has freed itself from national stereotypes. Also, it addresses insights which have been derived from the cultural interaction across the centuries and the different epochs of garden art.

Book Synopsis The Making of Juana of Austria by : Noelia García Pérez
Download or read book The Making of Juana of Austria written by Noelia García Pérez and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2021-12-08 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited by art historian Noelia García Pérez, this first-ever collection of essays on Juana of Austria, the younger daughter of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and sister to Philip II of Spain, offers an interdisciplinary study of the Habsburg princess that addresses her political, religious, and artistic dimensions. The volume’s contextual framework shows her sharing agency with other women of her dynastic family who governed in the sixteenth century and developed an outstanding reputation for promoting artists and works of art. The Making of Juana of Austria demonstrates how Juana’s role as a leading patron of the arts offered her a means of creating her own image, which she then promulgated through the objects she collected and her crowning architectural endeavor, the Monastery-Palace of the Descalzas Reales. Drawing on early modern literature, archival documents, and artworks, the essays in this volume delineate a new portrait of Juana of Austria. Contributors not only highlight her multiple facets—princess of Portugal, regent of Castile, and the only female Jesuit in history—but also show her as a discerning art patron and collector who pursued an active role of patronage, through which she constructed her own art collection and used it to articulate a visual statement of her lineage, power, and religious convictions. Her role as an art promoter culminated with the foundation of the Descalzas Reales and the works of art she collected and displayed within its walls. The Making of Juana of Austria offers a new perspective on female rule and patronage, exploring the achievements of a crucial figure in the history of art, court, and gender in early modern Europe.
Book Synopsis La imagen religiosa en la monarquía hispánica by : María Cruz de Carlos
Download or read book La imagen religiosa en la monarquía hispánica written by María Cruz de Carlos and published by Casa de Velázquez. This book was released on 2008 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La imagen religiosa es el terreno común en el que convergen los estudios reunidos en este volumen. Lejos de verse como exclusivo patrimonio de los historiadores del arte, el estudio de las imágenes sagradas en el mundo hispánico se plantea aquí en la intersección de dos campos, el artístico y el religioso. Así, sin eludir la dimensión plástica y eventualmente artística de las representaciones, se incorporan también otros puntos de vista, otras metodologías de trabajo sumadas a las tradicionales del historiador del arte que, devolviendo las obras a su contexto ritual, permiten comprender su función estética como una dimensión esencial de su significado histórico.
