Описание: The term ad vivum and its cognates al vivo , au vif , nach dem Leben and naer het leven have been applied since the thirteenth century to depictions designated as from, to or after (the) life. This book explores the issues raised by this vocabulary and related terminology with reference to visual materials produced and used in Europe before 1800, including portraiture, botanical, zoological, medical and topographical images, images of novel and newly discovered phenomena, and likenesses created through direct contact with the object being depicted. The designation ad vivum was not restricted to depictions made directly after the living model, and was often used to advertise the claim of an image to be a faithful likeness or a bearer of reliable information. Viewed as an assertion of accuracy or truth, ad vivum raises a number of fundamental questions in the area of early modern epistemology – questions about the value and prestige of visual and/or physical contiguity between image and original, about the kinds of information which were thought important and dependably transmissible in material form, and about the roles of the artist in that transmission. The recent interest of historians of early modern art in how value and meaning are produced and reproduced by visual materials which do not conform to the definition of art as unique invention, and of historians of science and of art in the visualisation of knowledge, has placed the questions surrounding ad vivum at the centre of their common concerns. Contributors: Thomas Balfe, Jose Beltran, Carla Benzan, Eleanor Chan, Robert Felfe, Mechthild Fend, Sachiko Kusukawa, Pieter Martens, Richard Mulholland, Noa Turel, Joanna Woodall, and Daan Van Heesch.

Описание: Stunning collection of photographs capturing 45 different breeds across 65 portraits. A fantastic gift book for dog lovers. Dogs faces are all so unique eyes that can see deep into your soul; noses long and short, with textures and colours ranging from the blackest black, to pink and every shade in between; the length of their ears and whether they stand up straight, droop low or perhaps a combination of both; the infi nite arrangements of coat markings and hair lengths, curly or straight; wrinkled jowls, wrinkled foreheads, whiskers, teeth, tongues and eyebrows. Muttshots is the evolution of photographer Loz Daltons personal project to examine furry faces from different angles and became a joyful exploration into uncovering the personalities, quirks and stories that accompany the different breeds. She discovered the way people lit up when telling stories about their dogs, highlighting the huge bond we have with our animals and how pure and special their unconditional love for us is.
