Download or read book Giambattista Tiepolo 1696 1770 Venice Museum of Ca Rezzonico from September 5 to December 9 1996 The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York from January 24 to April 27 1997 written by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 1996 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in conjunction with an exhibit which opened in Venice in 1996 and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York during the first part of 1997. The exhibit organizers aimed to show Tiepolo as one of the presiding geniuses of the European imagination. In essays and entries on every work shown, the text illuminates his formation; his mastery of mythological and poetic subjects; his religious pictures; his excursions into portraiture and studies of ideal heads; and the process by which he proceeded from initial ideas--small- scale sketches--to large canvases and frescoes. Beautifully produced, the volume makes a stunning impact, and will have to suffice for those who can't make it to the exhibit itself.

Book Giambattista Tiepolo

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jon L. Seydl
  • Publisher : Getty Publications
  • Release : 2005
  • ISBN : 0892368128
  • Pages : 97 pages

Download or read book Giambattista Tiepolo written by Jon L. Seydl and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giambattista Tiepolo (1696-1770) was the greatest Italian painter of the eighteenth century, best known for his monumental frescoes and epic altarpieces. The scale of these paintings is immense, even overpowering. Yet some of Tiepolo's finest work can be found in the small oil sketches that he often made in preparation for these grand commissions. Published to coincide with an exhibition at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Giambattista Tiepolo: Fifteen Oil Sketches brings together a group of the artist's oil sketches from the Courtauld Institute in London that spans his entire career and reveals the amazing confidence and fluidity with which he created these paintings. The unusual intimacy of these preparatory sketches-made directly on the canvas with no preliminary underdrawing-reveals a great artist's vigorous imagination at work. The exhibit will run from May 3, 2005, to September 4, 2005. An introductory essay situates these works within the context of eighteenth-century art and Tiepolo's life and career.
