Book Art and Authority in Renaissance Milan

Download or read book Art and Authority in Renaissance Milan written by Evelyn S. Welch and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milan was one of the largest and most important cities in Renaissance Italy. Controlled by the Visconti and Sforza dynasties from 1277 until 1500, its rulers were generous patrons of the arts, responsible for commissioning major monuments throughout the city and for supporting artists such as Giovanni di Balduccio, Filarete, Bramante and Leonardo da Vinci. But the city was much more than its dukes. Milan had a distinct civic identity, one that was expressed, above all, through its neighbourhood, religious and charitable associations. This book moves beyond standard interpretations of ducal patronage to explore the often overlooked city itself, showing how the allegiances of the town hall and the parish related to those of the servants and aristocrats who frequented the Visconti and Sforza court. In this original and stimulating interdisciplinary study, Evelyn Welch illustrates the ways in which the myths of Visconti and Sforza supremacy were created. Newly discovered material for major projects such as the cathedral, hospital and castle of Milan permits a greater understanding of the political, economic and architectural forces that shaped these extraordinary buildings. The book also explores the wider social networks of the artists themselves. Leonardo da Vinci, for example, is de-mythologised: far from being an isolated, highly prized court artist, he spent his almost eighteen years in the city working within the wider Milanese community of painters, sculptors, goldsmiths and embroiderers. The broad perspective of the book ensures that any future study of the Renaissance will have to re-evaluate the place of Milan in Italian cultural history.

Book Fra Angelico to Leonardo

Download or read book Fra Angelico to Leonardo written by Hugo Chapman and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sumptuously illustrated catalogue charts the history of drawing in Italy from 1400, just prior to the emergence in Florence of the classically inspired naturalism of the Renaissance style, to around 1510 when Michelangelo, Raphael and Titian were on the verge of taking the innovations of earlier masters, such as Leonardo and Pollaiuolo, in a new direction. The book highlights the key role played by drawing in artistic teaching and in how artists studied the human body and the natural world. Aspects of regional difference, the development of new drawing techniques and classes of graphic work, such as finished presentation pieces to impress patrons, are also explored. An extended introduction focusing on how and why artists made drawings, with a special emphasis on the pivotal role of Leonardo, is richly illustrated with examples from the two collections that elucidate the technique and function of the works. This is followed by catalogue entries for just over 100 drawings where discussion of their function and significance is supported by comparative illustrations of related works, such as paintings.

Book Italian Renaissance Painting

Download or read book Italian Renaissance Painting written by James H. Beck and published by Konemann. This book was released on 1999 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This up-to-date survey of the finest moments in Western painting from Masacio through Michelangelo and Titian covers some fifty artists and their work and includes 450 color illustrations. Beck divides the period into three generations covering over one hundred years. The art is then distinguished between a more lyric or a more monumental vision, thereby giving a framework for the study and appreciation of the complex but rewarding material which has formed the basis of painting ever since. Attention is given to the lives of the artists in addition to their works set in the historical context. The book is accompanied by a bibliography and a glossary as well as an index for easy reference. -- From publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Une part importante des communications du Colloque XIV pour l'etude de la technologie et du dessin sous-jacent dans la peinture a ete consacree a l'oeuvre de Jerome Bosch et de ses successeurs. L'exposition Bosch qui s'est tenue en 2001 a Rotterdam a suscite de nombreuses etudes. Le colloque en est grandement le reflet. Selon la tradition une autre part importante du colloque, et donc du volume des actes, a ete consacree a l'etude de l'oeuvre d'autres artistes et notamment les Primitifs flamands tels Van Eyck, Van der Weyden et Van der Goes. Plusieurs maitres italiens comme Perugino, Rafael, Leonardo, Mantegna, Bramantino et Luini ont aussi fait l'objet de communications. Selon la tradition, la bibliographie de l'infrarouge et du dessin sous-jacent pour les annees 2001 et 2002 cloture l'ouvrage.
