Albrecht Durer was a master in various media, but it was in woodcut design that his creative genius reached its highest expression. Here are all of his extant woodcuts, a collection of over 300 great works containing all the familiar cuts long treasured by the world's art lovers: the celebrated series on the Life of the Virgin, The Apocalypse of John (17 cuts), The Great Passion, St. Jerome in his Study, Samson Fighting the Lion, The Fall of Icarus, The Six Knots, The Men's Bath, St. Christopher, The Virgin in Glory, The Rhinoceros, The Last Supper of 1523, illustrations from Durer's "The Art of Measurement" and from his four books on human proportion, and many others, including much little-known material. This book is the only available source for many of these works. Although sacred subjects predominate (the Holy Family, scenes from Christ's life, crucifixion, etc., the lives of the saints, Old Testament episodes), many other motifs are treated. There are portraits of prominent men of the ages, book illustrations (secular and religious), coats of arms, the celestial and terrestrial globes, animals, mythological and historical themes, etc. The plates are arranged generally in chronological order permitting the reader to view the development of Durer's art. From out of the gnarled figures and landscapes one can see the emergence of an individualistic style and skill unrivaled in this sphere. An introduction by Campbell Dodgson and a 34-page textual guide to the plates by Dr. Willi Kurth discuss the evidence and controversies surrounding the authenticity of each work, citing the opinions of all the important Durer scholars; they also furnish the reader with the historical background of the cuts and of Durer's life and times -- from the years of apprenticeship in Nuremberg to the last works of 1520-1528. All of the woodcuts are reproduced in excellent detail. This book is indispensable for the professional art historian and critic. To the layman with any aesthetic interests at all it will be a source of stimulation and satisfaction that only great art can provide.
Автор: Ward Lynd Название: Gods` Man: A Novel in Woodcuts ISBN: 0486435008 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780486435008 Издательство: Dover Рейтинг: Цена: 12370.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The most important work of American artist and illustrator Lynd Ward, Gods' Man is a powerfully evocative novel, told entirely through woodcuts. Ward (1905-85), in employing the concept of the wordless pictorial narrative, acknowledged his predecessors the European artists Frans Masereel and Otto N ckel. Released the week of the 1929 stock market crash, Gods' Man was the first of six woodcut novels that Ward produced over the next eight years. It presents the artist's struggles in a world characterized by both innocence and corruptions and can be considered a forerunner of the contemporary graphic novel, popularized by artists such as Daniel Clowes. Although best known for his "novels in woodcuts," Ward was also a successful illustrator of children's books. In 1953 he won the Caldecott Medal for The Biggest Bear, which he both wrote and illustrated. His illustrations also appeared in numerous books that received the Newbery Medal. Ward's final work was the acclaimed wordless novel The Silver Pony (1973). Until now, Gods' Man has only been widely available in high-priced original editions. This top-quality, low-cost republication of Ward's masterpiece will be welcomed by collectors of his work as well as by readers new to his achievement.

Автор: Reid James Название: The Life of Christ in Woodcuts ISBN: 0486468844 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780486468846 Издательство: Dover Рейтинг: Цена: 9060.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In the early twentieth century, a host of maverick artists introduced the idea of the graphic novel, a story told exclusively with wood engravings. Not a word of text, dialogue, plot, or description. James Reid was one of these talented men, a versatile artist whose illustrations first graced Life magazine and a variety of children's books. In this beautiful volume--one of the first wordless books ever published--he celebrates the most important events in the life of Christ using a series of stylized woodcut prints. Although many books have explored this sacred subject, Reid's is unique, relying on seventy-one dramatic black-and-white images for a moving retelling of the greatest story ever told. Eloquent in their simplicity, the woodcuts depict the Annunciation, Mary and Joseph searching for an inn, Mary Magdalene washing the feet of Jesus, the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, Ascension, and more. The Life of Christ in Woodcuts will be treasured by collectors of religious books and anyone with an interest in art history.
