Название: Victorian Radicals: From the Pre-Raphaelites to the Arts & Crafts Movement ISBN: 3791357638 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783791357638 Издательство: Prestel Publishing Limited Рейтинг: Цена: 52790.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: Although the word Victorian connotes a kind of dry propriety, the artists working in the Victorian era were anything but. Starting with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and lasting through the dawn of the 20th century, the era's painters, writers, and designers challenged every prevailing belief about art and its purpose. The full spectrum of the Victorian avant- garde is in magnificent display in this book that features nearly 150 works drawn from the Birmingham Museum's unparalleled collection. Characterized by attention to detail, vibrant colors, and engagement with literary themes and daily life, the paintings, works on paper, and decorative objects featured reveal the myriad ways Victorian artists and artisans made sense of a rapidly changing world. Perceptive essays and the latest scholarship illuminate the issues these artists contended with, including the relationship to art and nature, questions of class and gender identity, the value of handmade versus machine production, and the search for beauty in an age of industry. Designed to reflect the tactile nature of the work and featuring typography inspired by the Victorian era, this beautiful volume is as fresh and bold as the visionaries it celebrates.

Collecting Italian Renaissance paintings during America's Gilded Age was fraught with uncertainty, about both the true identity of the artists and the conflicting interests of dealers. In no other relationship is this more evident than that of Henry Walters, founder of the legendary Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, and Bernard Berenson, the era's preeminent connoisseur of Italian Renaissance paintings. Stanley Mazaroff tells the intriguing story of their close yet contentious relationship.
At the turn of the century, Walters acquired more than 500 Italian paintings purportedly by the great masters of Renaissance art. Walters retained Berenson to analyze and authenticate this then famous collection, asking Berenson to also write a catalogue and to acquire additional paintings. Yet a friendship that began warmly quickly cooled when Walters discoverd that Berenson was driven by interests that conflicted with Walters's own.
The relationship between Walters and Berenson illustrates the travails of art collecting in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century America. Mazaroff describes the manner in which Berenson transformed Walters's holdings from a collection of pretentious masterpieces to one that effectively told the history of Italian Renaissance painting. He further details Berenson's hyperbolic descriptions of the paintings he was trying to sell to Walters, the problems that arose with Berenson's own faulty attributions, and Berenson's business practices and other ethical issues that ultimately drove a wedge between the two men.
The book is based on correspondence between Walters and Berenson and other archival documents recently discovered at the Walters Art Museum and the Villa I Tatti, Berenson's home outside of Florence. For art and cultural historians and educated readers, the book offers fascinating insight into Renaissance art, the history of art collecting, and the founding of American museums during the Gilded Age.
Автор: Buron Melissa E. Название: Truth and Beauty: The Pre-Raphaelites and the Old Masters ISBN: 379135728X ISBN-13(EAN): 9783791357287 Издательство: Prestel Publishing Limited Рейтинг: Цена: 52790.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This dazzling book examines the inspiration behind the work of the Pre-Raphaelites and offers comparisons between the radical 19th-century artists and the masterworks they revered. Started in the early 19th century by a group of British painters who rejected the sovereignty of the Royal Academy, the Pre-Raphaelites embraced the natural world and bright colors--as opposed to the dark palettes and amorphous lines that emerged in the wake of the Renaissance. Their mission was to be fundamentally modern by emulating the past. Now readers can appreciate their achievements in this volume that offers side-by-side comparisons of 19th-century masterpieces with the 15th- and 16th-century Early Italian and Early Netherlandish paintings that inspired them. Exquisite reproductions of works by Giotto, Fra Angelico, van Eyck, Botticelli, Titian, Veronese, and Raphael are presented alongside examples by William Holman Hunt, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and others. The book traces the evolution of the Pre-Raphaelites, and details how these painters were exposed to the early masters as they traveled and encountered the finest European collections. The volume also features decorative arts, including stained glass and tapestries in emulation of Flemish and French textiles as well as "medievalized" ecclesiastic decorations. The result is an illuminating examination that delves into the Pre-Raphaelites' aesthetic vocabulary and broadens our understanding of their motives and inspiration. Published in association with the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco
