Download or read book Italy for Sale written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-08-14 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Italian Renaissance art, objects, and even the idea of Italy itself figured heavily both in the dynamic international art market and in the eyes of the general public. The alternative objects that were actively dispersed and collected -- authentic works, pastiches, Renaissance-inspired counterfeits, and reproductions -- in the diverse media of paint, plaster, terracotta, and photography, had a tremendous impact on visual culture across social strata. These essays examine less studied aspects of this market through the lens of just a few of the countless successful sales of objects out of Italy.

It’s an extraordinarily beautiful package, complete with front cover flocking and debossing with four-color tip, adorned with a colorful ribbon. Each week explores a new aspect of our romantic lives, from flirtation and fear of commitment to longing, seduction, and jealousy. And every daily entry examines that theme through a single artistic medium, be it a sonnet, novel, film, opera, TV show, or sculpture. These thought-provoking nuggets, both old and new, go from ancient times right up through Sex and the City. Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus jubilantly celebrates "Love and Beauty.” "May December Romance” looks at real-life couple Bogie and Bacall, while "From Friendship to Love” presents on-screen pair Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn) & Paul Varjack (George Peppard) in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. With keen insight or subtle implication, Wilentz interprets the wisdom or lesson readers can glean from each selection.
Download or read book Art in an Age of Civil Struggle 1848 1871 written by Albert Boime and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 906 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the European revolutions of 1848 through the Italian independence movement, the American Civil War, and the French Commune, the era Albert Boime explores in this fourth volume of his epic series was, in a word, transformative. The period, which gave rise to such luminaries as Karl Marx and Charles Darwin, was also characterized by civic upheaval, quantum leaps in science and technology, and the increasing secularization of intellectual pursuits and ordinary life. In a sweeping narrative that adds critical depth to a key epoch in modern art’s history, Art in an Age of Civil Struggle shows how this turbulent social environment served as an incubator for the mid-nineteenth century’s most important artists and writers. Tracing the various movements of realism through the major metropolitan centers of Europe and America, Boime strikingly evokes the milieus that shaped the lives and works of Gustave Courbet, Edouard Manet, Émile Zola, Honoré Daumier, Walt Whitman, Abraham Lincoln, and the earliest photographers, among countless others. In doing so, he spearheads a powerful new way of reassessing how art emerges from the welter of cultural and political events and the artist’s struggle to interpret his surroundings. Boime supports this multifaceted approach with a wealth of illustrations and written sources that demonstrate the intimate links between visual culture and social change. Culminating at the transition to impressionism, Art in an Age of Civil Struggle makes historical sense of a movement that paved the way for avant-garde aesthetics and, more broadly, of how a particular style emerges at a particular moment.

Download or read book Goethe s Faust I Outlined written by Evanghelia Stead and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a new approach to Goethe's Faust I, Evanghelia Stead extensively discusses Moritz Retzsch's twenty-six outline prints (1816) and how their spin-offs made the unfathomable play available to larger reader communities through copying and extensive distribution circuits, including bespoke gifts. The images amply transformed as they travelled throughout Europe and overseas, revealing differences between countries and cultures but also their pliability and resilience whenever remediated. This interdisciplinary investigation evidences the importance of print culture throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in nations involved in competition and conflict. Retzsch's foundational set crucially engenders parody, and inspires the stage, literature, and three-dimensional objects, well beyond common perceptions of print culture's influence. This book is available in open access thanks to an Institut Universitaire de France (IUF) grant.
