This book was released on 1991 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 250 year period of Renaissance and Baroque printmaking in Europe was as varied and innovative as those of its sister arts of painting and sculpture. From the mid-15th century through the 17th century Europe burgeoned with artistic activity. This diversity is well-represented in these collections of woodcuts, engravings, etchings, and drypoint etchings by 65 artists working north and south of the Alps, from Germany to Italy. Highlighted are works by Albrecht Durer, Titian, Schiavone, and other Mannerist artists, and Rembrandt van Rijn and other 17th century Dutch and Flemish artists.

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.
