Book excerpt: This beautiful and important book highlights the collection of European drawings at the Yale University Art Gallery, one of America's premier university museums. From intimate studies to exquisite finished compositions, this selection of works documents the history of European drawing practices beginning with late-medieval model books and progressing to the verge of the modern period. The accompanying text--written by a team of scholars--offers a unique introduction to various critical and technical aspects of the study of master drawings, brought to life through drawings from a range of national schools and in a variety of media. Among the drawings examined in this handsomely produced volume are an animated pen and ink sketch by Giulio Romano, a pastoral landscape by Claude Lorrain, a forceful and humorous caricature by Guercino, a scene from the epic poem Orlando Furioso by Jean-Honoré Fragonard, and a delicate portrait by Edgar Degas.

Download or read book Van Dyck written by Stijn Alsteens and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major examination of Anthony van Dyck's work as a portraitist and an essential resource on this aspect of his illustrious career This landmark volume is a comprehensive survey of the portrait drawings, paintings, and prints of Anthony van Dyck (1599-1641), one of the most celebrated portraitists of all time. His supremely elegant style and ability to convey a sense of a sitter's inner life made him a favored portraitist among high-ranking figures and royalty across Europe, as well as among his fellow artists and art enthusiasts. Showcasing the full range of Van Dyck's fascinating international career with more than 100 works, this catalogue celebrates the artist's versatility, inventiveness, and influential approach to portraiture. Works include preparatory drawings and oil sketches that shed light on Van Dyck's working process, prints that allowed his work to reach a wider audience, and grand painted portraits. Some of the masterpieces are drawn from the exceptional holdings of The Frick Collection, while other works are presented here for the first time. Also included are drawings by some of Van Dyck's contemporaries--including his teacher Peter Paul Rubens--that illuminate the lineage of his working method. With insightful contributions by a team of international scholars, this unparalleled study of Van Dyck offers a compelling case for the distinctiveness and importance of the artist's work.

  • Author : Jay Richard Judson
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 9401191190
  • Pages : 168 pages

Download or read book Gerrit Van Honthorst written by Jay Richard Judson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gerrit van Honthorst (1590-1656), known today primarily for his candlelight scenes, was also famous during the seventeenth century for his mythological and historical paintings, and was a favorite of the courts 1 in England, Denmark and the Netherlands. It is my intention here to study his oeuvre in order to determine his contribution to the develop ment of Dutch painting at that time. In discussing Honthorst, I have chosen only those paintings which are autograph to avoid basing conclusions upon works of questionable attri bution. The problem paintings which I have decided to be from his hand will be treated in the Catalogue Raisonne. I have dealt with Honthorst's portraiture only in so far as it seemed to be of significance for new trends in Dutch painting. The basic material concerning Honthorst was first published by Pro fessor G.J. Hoogewerff in three articles for Onze Kunst in 1917. In this series of articles Professor Hoogewerff established a chronology of Hont horst's Italian works and gave some indication of his stylistic development.
