Book Rembrandt and the Inspiration of India

Download or read book Rembrandt and the Inspiration of India written by Stephanie Schrader and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sumptuously illustrated volume examines the impact of Indian art and culture on Rembrandt (1606–1669) in the late 1650s. By pairing Rembrandt’s twenty-two extant drawings of Shah Jahan, Jahangir, Dara Shikoh, and other Mughal courtiers with Mughal paintings of similar compositions, the book critiques the prevailing notion that Rembrandt “brought life” to the static Mughal art. Written by scholars of both Dutch and Indian art, the essays in this volume instead demonstrate how Rembrandt’s contact with Mughal painting inspired him to draw in an entirely new, refined style on Asian paper—an approach that was shaped by the Dutch trade in Asia and prompted by the curiosity of a foreign culture. Seen in this light, Rembrandt’s engagement with India enriches our understanding of collecting in seventeenth-century Amsterdam, the Dutch global economy, and Rembrandt’s artistic self-fashioning. A close examination of the Mughal imperial workshop provides new insights into how Indian paintings came to Europe as well as how Dutch prints were incorporated into Mughal compositions.

  • Pages : 100 pages

Download or read book Rembrandt on Paper written by Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2009 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669), one of the greatest artists in European history, was at the forefront of the Dutch Golden Age. His talent was multifaceted: not only a gifted portrait and landscape painter, he was also an inspired draftsman and printmaker. This gorgeously illustrated book pays tribute to Rembrandt's marvelous gifts as a graphic artist and offers a unique glimpse into his life and creative processes through fifty drawings from the collections of the J. Paul Getty Museum and the British Museum. Rembrandt's perceptive understanding of the human condition is evident in portraits of himself and his contemporaries. Beginning with the portraiture, the author examines the artist's other favorite themes--from mythological subjects to landscapes---and explores the artist's drawing and printmaking techniques. This book is a perfect introduction to the graphic work of this seventeenth-century master.

These selections, reflective of the increase in the monographic literature on artists during the last ten years, are evidence of the activities of a larger number of art historians in more countries worldwide, of the increasingly diverse and ambitious exhibition programs of museums whose number has also increased dramatically, and also of a lively international art market and the attendant gallery activities. The selections of the first edition have been reviewed, errors have been corrected and important new editions and reprints have been noted. The second edition contains 278 names of artists not represented in the first edition.

Book The Ashgate Research Companion to Dutch Art of the Seventeenth Century

Download or read book The Ashgate Research Companion to Dutch Art of the Seventeenth Century written by Wayne Franits and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the tremendous number of studies produced annually in the field of Dutch art over the last 30 years or so, and the strong contemporary market for works by Dutch masters of the period as well as the public's ongoing fascination with some of its most beloved painters, until now there has been no comprehensive study assessing the state of research in the field. As the first study of its kind, this book is a useful resource for scholars and advanced students of seventeenth-century Dutch art, and also serves as a springboard for further research. Its 19 chapters, divided into three sections and written by a team of internationally renowned art historians, address a wide variety of topics, ranging from those that might be considered "traditional" to others that have only drawn scholarly attention comparatively recently.

Book Rembrandt     Studies in his Varied Approaches to Italian Art

Download or read book Rembrandt Studies in his Varied Approaches to Italian Art written by Amy Golahny and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rembrandt: Studies in his Varied Approaches to Italian Art explores his engagement with imagery by Italian masters. His references fall into three categories: pragmatic adaptations, critical commentary, and conceptual rivalry. These are not mutually exclusive but provide a strategy for discussion. This study also discusses Dutch artists’ attitudes toward traveling south, surveys contemporary literature praising and/or criticizing Rembrandt, and examines his art collection and how he used it. It includes an examination of the vocabulary used by Italians to describe Rembrandt’s art, with a focus on the patron Don Antonio Ruffo, and closes by considering the reception of his works by Italian artists.

Book European Drawings 4

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nicholas Turner
  • Publisher : Getty Publications
  • Release : 2001-01-03
  • ISBN : 0892365846
  • Pages : 334 pages

Download or read book European Drawings 4 written by Nicholas Turner and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2001-01-03 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection of drawings at the Getty Museum was started in 1981 with the purchase of Rembrandt’s Nude Woman with a Snake and has steadily expanded since then, so that now, at the turn of the new millennium, it stands at more than six hundred drawings and is, sheet for sheet, one of the best anywhere. The Getty goal is to create from the finest examples a collection of the different Western European schools of drawing before 1900, with special emphasis on the work of the most important and accomplished draftsmen. The collection now contains superb examples of the work of Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo, Dürer, Rembrandt, Claude Lorraine, Watteau, Gainsborough, David, Millet, Manet, Van Gogh, and Degas. This is the fourth in the series of catalogues describing the drawings in the Getty Museum. Most of the drawings discussed in the present volume were chosen for the collection in the period of 1994 to 1998 and include examples from the Italian, German, Dutch and Flemish, French, Spanish, and British schools. Also included are several gifts from private collectors, which mark the start of a tradition that, it is hoped, will continue in the future. The catalogue entries for these new acquisitions are organized first by national school and then by artist. The book also includes a bibliography and indexes of artists, former owners, related drawings, prints, and works in other media.

This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary history of Netherlandish drawing, focused on the training and skill of artists during the long 17th century With a lively narrative thread and thematic chapters, this book offers an exceptional introduction to Dutch and Flemish drawing during the long 17th century. Victoria Sancho Lobis discusses the many roles of drawing in artistic training, its function in the production of works in other media, and its emergence as a medium in its own right. Beautifully illustrated with some 120 drawings by artists including Rembrandt van Rijn, Peter Paul Rubens, Hendrick Goltzius, Gerrit von Honthorst, and Jacob De Gheyn, this book surveys current methodologies of studying these works and features a brief history of Dutch papermaking and watermarks as well as a glossary. Paying careful attention to materials and techniques, and informed by recent conservation treatments, Lobis explains how to look at these drawings as records of experimentation and skill, true windows into the artist’s mind.
