Download or read book Michelangelo written by Carmen C. Bambach and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2017-11-05 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consummate painter, draftsman, sculptor, and architect, Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475–1564) was celebrated for his disegno, a term that embraces both drawing and conceptual design, which was considered in the Renaissance to be the foundation of all artistic disciplines. To his contemporary Giorgio Vasari, Michelangelo was “the divine draftsman and designer” whose work embodied the unity of the arts. Beautifully illustrated with more than 350 drawings, paintings, sculptures, and architectural views, this book establishes the centrality of disegno to Michelangelo’s work. Carmen C. Bambach presents a comprehensive and engaging narrative of the artist’s long career in Florence and Rome, beginning with his training under the painter Domenico Ghirlandaio and the sculptor Bertoldo and ending with his seventeen-year appointment as chief architect of Saint Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican. The chapters relate Michelangelo’s compositional drawings, sketches, life studies, and full-scale cartoons to his major commissions—such as the ceiling frescoes and the Last Judgment in the Sistine Chapel, the church of San Lorenzo and its New Sacristy (Medici Chapel) in Florence, and Saint Peter’s—offering fresh insights into his creative process. Also explored are Michelangelo’s influential role as a master and teacher of disegno, his literary and spiritual interests, and the virtuoso drawings he made as gifts for intimate friends, such as the nobleman Tommaso de’ Cavalieri and Vittoria Colonna, the marchesa of Pescara. Complementing Bambach’s text are thematic essays by leading authorities on the art of Michelangelo. Meticulously researched, compellingly argued, and richly illustrated, this book is a major contribution to our understanding of this timeless artist.

Book A Patron Family Between Renaissance Florence  Rome  and Naples

Download or read book A Patron Family Between Renaissance Florence Rome and Naples written by Vincenzo Sorrentino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the Del Riccio family in Florence in the early modern period, investigating the cultural mediations fostered by the family between Florence, Rome, and Naples, as well as shedding light on the intellectual and social exchanges between different regions of Italy and on the creation of foreign nations within the main Italian cities. These social and cultural dimensions are further explored through the study of the obsessive persistence of the family’s relationship with Michelangelo Buonarroti, exhibited both publicly, in the Florentine and Neapolitan family chapels, and privately in their homes. The main achievement of this study is to move the focus from the ruling power, the Medici family and the immediate members of their court, to a Florentine middle-class family and its social mobility: this shift from the conventional narrative to a distributed microhistory is fundamental to better assess the use of images and artworks in early modern Florence and abroad. The aesthetic and stylistic choices in the use of art and art display made by the Del Riccio reveal a deep awareness of the substantial differences in taste and meaning between different cities of the Italian peninsula. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, visual culture, and Renaissance studies.

Book La Cappella Sistina e la Cappella Paolina

Download or read book La Cappella Sistina e la Cappella Paolina written by Massimo Firpo and published by Gius.Laterza & Figli Spa. This book was released on 2013-12-10T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nel 1541, un anno prima dell'istituzione del Sant'Ufficio romano, fu scoperto il Giudizio di Michelangelo nella parete d'altare della cappella Sistina. Negli anni seguenti, mentre si tenevano le prime riunioni del concilio di Trento, Michelangelo affrescò anche la cappella Paolina con le grandiose immagini della Conversione di san Paolo e della Crocifissione di San Pietro. Nelle sue opere trova espressione la crisi religiosa portata a un punto di rottura dalla Riforma luterana, e si riflettono gli orientamenti del grande artista toscano. Amicizie, frequentazioni, sonetti hanno suggerito orientamenti di natura eterodossa, più evidenti nei suoi ultimi affreschi e nelle ultime Pietà da lui scolpite.
