Download or read book The Wrath of the Gods written by Christopher D. M.. Atkins and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) proudly described his monumental painting Prometheus Bound as first among "the flower of my stock." This singular work demonstrates how Rubens engaged with and responded to his predecessors Michelangelo and Titian, with whom he shared an interest in depictions of physical torment. This book offers an in-depth case study of the Flemish artist's creative process and aesthetic, while also demonstrating why this particular painting has appealed to viewers over time. Many scholars have elaborated on Rubens's affinity for Titian, but his connection to Michelangelo has received far less attention. This study presents a new interpretation of Prometheus Bound, showing how Rubens created parallels between the pagan hero Prometheus and Michelangelo's Risen Christ from the Sistine Chapel's Last Judgment. Christopher D.M. Atkins expands our understanding of artistic transmission by elucidating how Rubens synthesized the works he saw in Italy, Spain, and his native Antwerp, and how Prometheus Bound in turn influenced Dutch, Flemish, and Italian artists.

Book Titian

  • Author : Tom Nichols
  • Publisher : Reaktion Books
  • Release : 2013-11-15
  • ISBN : 1780232276
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book Titian written by Tom Nichols and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-11-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Titian is best known for paintings that embodied the tradition of the Venetian Renaissance—but how Venetian was the artist himself? In this study, Tom Nichols probes the tensions between the individualism of Titian’s work and the conservative mores of the city, showing how his art undermined the traditional self-suppressing approach to painting in Venice and reflected his engagement with the individualistic cultures emerging in the courts of early modern Europe. Ranging widely across Titian’s long career and varied works, Titian and the End of the Venetian Renaissance outlines his radical innovations to the traditional Venetian altarpiece; his transformation of portraits into artistic creations; and his meteoric breakout from the confines of artistic culture in Venice. Nichols explores how Titian challenged the city’s communal values with his competitive professional identity, contending that his intensely personalized way of painting resulted in a departure that effectively brought an end to the Renaissance tradition of painting. Packed with 170 illustrations, this groundbreaking book will change the way people look at Titian and Venetian art history.

Book The Earlier Work of Titian

Download or read book The Earlier Work of Titian written by Claude Sir Phillips and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one can surmise from the title, this work concerns itself with discussing Titian's early work. He was an Italian painter of the Renaissance, considered the most important member of the 16th-century Venetian school. His career was successful from the start, and he became sought after by patrons, initially from Venice and its possessions, then joined by the north Italian princes, and finally the Habsburgs and papacy. Along with Giorgione, he is considered a founder of the Venetian School of Italian Renaissance painting.

  • Author : Jeremy Wood
  • Publisher : Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burch
  • Release : 2010
  • ISBN : 9781905375400
  • Pages : 680 pages

Download or read book Rubens written by Jeremy Wood and published by Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burch. This book was released on 2010 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume is the second of three devoted to the many copies and adaptations that Rubens made from Italian art, and it is dominated by his interest in the work of artists active in Venice during the sixteenth century. Rubens, when a mature master, decided to make a number of full-size painted replicas of works by Titian that he saw on his travels to Madrid and London. Perhaps surprisingly, he made far fewer copies after the works of Titian's contemporaries, Tintoretto and Veronese, but, in addition, the volume examines his interest in the work of other masters active in North Italy at this time, notably Andrea Mantegna, Antonio da Correggio, and Girolamo Francesco Parmigianino. It is Rubens's interest in Titian, however, that has been seen as crucial for art in the Early Modern period, a topic that has attracted the attention of critics and art historians from the seventeenth century to the present day.

  • Author : Paul Joannides
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2001-01-01
  • ISBN : 0300087217
  • Pages : 372 pages

Download or read book Titian to 1518 written by Paul Joannides and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work that Titian produced during the first decade of his career is beautiful and varied, but it has raised many questions of attribution and chronology. This book - the first thorough and coherent account of this period in Titian's life - reconstructs what he painted, when he painted it and what these paintings mean. Paul Joannides begins by discussing the probable course of Titian's early career and his relationship to the Bellinis. There are individual excurses on Giorgione and on Sebastiano del Piombo whose work has often been confused with his. Joannides then offers new interpretations of some of Titian's paintings, emphasising their poetic and dramatic qualities. Among other topics, he associates for the first time the paintings in Saint Petersburg, Venice and Houston; lays out Titian's part of the Fondaco; connects the privately owned Resurrected Christ with the Fogg Circumcision; integrates the Dresden Venus and the Berlin Portrait into Titian's work; and establishes the dynamism and inventiveness of the great Assunta of 1516-18. Joannides provides detailed arguments in support of both new and familiar attributions, proposes a more closely reasoned and precise chronology

  • Author : Charles FitzRoy
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2015-02-26
  • ISBN : 140819211X
  • Pages : 229 pages

Download or read book The Rape of Europa written by Charles FitzRoy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Rape of Europa' is one of Titian's great masterpieces, a work charged with eroticism and classical mystique behind which lies a tale as compelling as the painting itself. Here Charles FitzRoy weaves a unique account of its history and the painting's movement following the rise and fall of the countries in which it has been housed. The story ranges from its place at the court of King Philip II of Spain, through French revolution and English intrigue, to its final move to America, engineered by the brilliant but devious art historian Bernard Berenson. This is the tale of how Titian's masterpiece has captivated kings, nobles, artists, and lovers alike for over four centuries since its conception and continues to do so today.

Book  Titian  Colonna and the Renaissance Science of Procreation

Download or read book Titian Colonna and the Renaissance Science of Procreation written by Anthony Colantuono and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Titian, Colonna and the Renaissance Science of Procreation demonstrates that two major monuments of Italian Renaissance culture - Bellini's and Titian's famous series of mytho-poetical paintings for the camerino of Duke Alfonso d'Este of Ferrara, and Francesco Colonna's Hypnerotomachia Poliphili - were conceived as mnemonic or pedagogical devices aimed at educating the reader/beholder in the medical science of reproductive physiology and the maintenance of sexual health. It is further argued that the learned courtier Mario Equicola, who conceived the pictorial program of Duke Alfonso's camerino, had read Colonna's text and was extensively inspired by its prior literary argument. The study is organized in two parts, intimately interrelated. The first part is a study of Alfonso d'Este's camerino, with a general introduction, individual chapters on each of Bellini's and Titian's four pictorial "bacchanals," and a conclusion proposing a new and more accurate reconstruction of the layout of the room, also including a completely new way of interpreting the ensemble. The second part of the study concerns Colonna's Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, again beginning with its own introductory essay and advancing a completely new interpretation of the text. The brief conclusion brings the insights of the two sections together, clarifying the historical relationship between the pictorial and literary works and explaining their larger cultural significance. Emphasizing Equicola's use of the Hypnerotomachia as a model for pictorial invention, the author reveals how Titian's remarkably sensuous paintings and Colonna's erotically-charged romance are related by their common reference to the neo-Aristotelian medical theory of the "libidinal seasons," and by corollary themes of marriage and sexual consummation. This peculiar intersection of cultural themes came to prominence in the context of a courtly world in which medical science was increasingly brought to bear on the problem of dy

Book Titian   Tragic Painting

    Book Details:
  • Author : Thomas Puttfarken
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2005-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780300110005
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book Titian Tragic Painting written by Thomas Puttfarken and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late in his life Titian created a series of paintings--the "Four Sinners,” the "poesie” for his patron Philip II of Spain, and the "Final Tragedies”--that were dark in tone and content, full of pathos and physical suffering.In this major reinterpretation of Titian’s art, Thomas Puttfarken shows that the often dramatic and violent subject matter of these works was not, as is often argued, the consequence of the artist’s increasing age and sense of isolation and tragedy. Rather, these paintings were influenced by discussions of Aristotle’s Poetics that permeated learned discourse in Italy in the mid-sixteenth century. The Poetics led directly to a rich theory of the visual arts, and painting in particular, that enabled artists like Titian to consider themselves on equal footing with poets. Puttfarken investigates Titian’s late works in this context and analyzes his relations with his patrons, his intellectual and humanistic contacts, and his choices of subject matter, style, and technique.
