Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Real Castles in Spain The Alhambra and the great mosque at Cor dova were no longer to be the visions of my imaginative brain, but I was going to see them with my own eyes, touch them with my own hands, and above all else, I was going to be eleven days on the Atlantic, and to a girl who loves the water, that alone is enough to turn her head and make her forget her letter of credit.

Download or read book Key Dates in Art History written by Roslin Mair and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What were the most important paintings done in France between 1650 and 1700? While Picasso was working on Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, who was making the most important paintings, sculptures, and buildings in the United States? Key Dates in Art History from 600 BC to the Present provides fast, accurate, pictorial and factual reference in the history of Western painting, sculpture, and architecture. The book functions in at least four different ways. Firstly, the reader can discover within any one period the parallel developments in various geographical areas. Secondly, the pictures reinforce the idea of period and style. Thirdly, the accompanying chronology of social historical and art historical events enables the reader to place the art history in a wider context. Fourthly, a comprehensive index of all works of art and artists mentioned allows the book to be used as reference from particular to the gerneral period and style."--Publisher's description.
Download or read book Luxury Arts of the Renaissance written by Marina Belozerskaya and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2005-10-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today we associate the Renaissance with painting, sculpture, and architecture—the “major” arts. Yet contemporaries often held the “minor” arts—gem-studded goldwork, richly embellished armor, splendid tapestries and embroideries, music, and ephemeral multi-media spectacles—in much higher esteem. Isabella d’Este, Marchesa of Mantua, was typical of the Italian nobility: she bequeathed to her children precious stone vases mounted in gold, engraved gems, ivories, and antique bronzes and marbles; her favorite ladies-in-waiting, by contrast, received mere paintings. Renaissance patrons and observers extolled finely wrought luxury artifacts for their exquisite craftsmanship and the symbolic capital of their components; paintings and sculptures in modest materials, although discussed by some literati, were of lesser consequence. This book endeavors to return to the mainstream material long marginalized as a result of historical and ideological biases of the intervening centuries. The author analyzes how luxury arts went from being lofty markers of ascendancy and discernment in the Renaissance to being dismissed as “decorative” or “minor” arts—extravagant trinkets of the rich unworthy of the status of Art. Then, by re-examining the objects themselves and their uses in their day, she shows how sumptuous creations constructed the world and taste of Renaissance women and men.
