Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Mythology: In Relation to Greek Art The plan of this book is as follows. A brief summary is first given of the general principles that govern the formation of types in art; the development of the type of each god or goddess, genius or hero, is historically considered. In a matter like this it is essential that the method should be historical; only so can it appear that the development of art types is subject to the same laws, follows the same inevitable sequence of development and decay, as may be observed in any other department of human civilization.

Download or read book Classic Myths in Art Classic Reprint written by Julia de Wolf Addison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classic Myths in Art The pictures of the old masters deal generally with religious subjects, but at the approach of the Renaissance the revived interest in classic art and culture led many of the artists to paint scenes from the mythology of the Greeks. It is with these pic tures, rather more than with ancient sculpture, that this volume will Concern itself. Certain gods and heroes naturally became favourites with the painters, while others were hardly ever represented. There fore, one cannot study mythology systematically from the pictures of the Renaissance, but one can, by studying the pictures of the Renaissance, discover what features in the old legends had predominated and survived with perennial interest for the later students of classic myth.

Download or read book Art and Myth in Ancient Greece written by T. H. Carpenter and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2022-01-20 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek myths are so much part of our culture that we tend to forget how they entered it in the first place. Visual sources vase paintings, engraved gems and sculpture in bronze and stone often pre-date references to the myths in literature, or offer alternative, unfamiliar tellings. In some cases visual art provides our only evidence, as there is no surviving account in ancient Greek literature of such important stories as the Fall of Troy, or Theseus and the Minotaur. T. H. Carpenters book is the first comprehensive, scholarly yet succinct survey of myth as it appears in Greek art. Copiously illustrated, it is an essential reference work for everybody interested in the art, drama, poetry or religion of ancient Greece. With this handbook as a guide, readers will be able to identify scenes from myth across the full breadth of archaic and classical Greek art.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Painters, Sculptors, Architects, Engravers, and Their Works: A Handbook When I regard a favorite shelf in my library, and consider how exhaustively the subjects of this volume have been treated, I feel inclined to hide it away; but when I think how many there are in our land who are as much interested in art and artists as I am, and have not the means to furnish such a shelf, I hope that this book may do something for them. I have also endeavored to make it a book of reference which can be easily consulted and used to advantage in connection with more exten sive works. Much time and study have been given to its prep aration, and I have aimed to be conscientiously correct as well as unprejudiced in my decisions between conflicting authorities. The books consulted are too numerous to be named except in part, which will be done at the end of this preface. The book is not necessarily connected with my work on Legendary and Mythological Art, but the two are so related to each other as to be profitably used together. The arrangement of engraving lists is, so far as I know, unique, and will render it a useful handbook for connoisseurs and buyers. The illustrations are representations of standard works of art, most of which are seen in European galleries and churches. A good number of monograms of painters and engravers are also given. I have endeavored in a small ispace to speak not only of artists as such, but by various facts and anecdotes to convey an idea of what they were in character and life. Three comprehensive indexes are added, which will increase the convenience and usefulness of the book, and in short, in its entire plan I have adopted the motto of Jan van Eyck, Als ich chan.
