Book excerpt: This book recounts the exciting rediscovery of Giorgio Vasari's painting' Allegory of Patience' painted in 1551?52 for the Bishop of Arezzo Vasari's hometown. The painting was conceived in Rome with the aid of Michelangelo as many surviving letters reveal. The work will be on view to the public at the National Gallery London through 2023. The monumental figure of a woman lifesized with arms crossed watches time run down. The passing of time is symbolized in the drops that fall from an antique water clock beside her gradually wearing away the stone on which she rests her foot. The Bishop of Arezzo regarded patience as the key to his career and achievements and wished it to be represented in a picture Vasari consulted his contemporaries and fellow humanists as well as the great sculptor Michelangelo when deciding what form it should take. The image represents more exactly the Latin tag "diuturna tolerantia" (daily tolerance). The painting quickly became famous in its time and numerous copies were made of it, but not until now has the original emerged. Thanks to letters between those involved the painting and the process of its creation are richly documented and in particular provide insights and quotations about picturemaking from Michelangelo. The book carries full documentation of the work and its known copies some of which can be traced to leading patrons in Renaissance Italy It also examines Vasari's own autograph technique and artistic aims--

  • Pages : 313 pages

Download or read book Tintoretto written by Robert Echols and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Considered one of the three greatest painters of sixteenth-century Venice, along with Titian and Veronese, Tintoretto was a bold innovator. His free, expressive brushwork made his work look unfinished to contemporaries but is now recognized as a key step in the development of oil-on-canvas painting. Even today's audiences are astonished by the superhuman scale, painterly dynamism, and visionary qualities of his work. On the 500th anniversary of Tintoretto's birth, this volume provides a comprehensive overview of his career and achievement, with fifteen essays and reproductions of more than 140 paintings--many newly conserved--as well as a selection of his finest drawings. One special contribution is a focus on the artist's portraiture" -- Library of Congress.

Book Vasari for Bindo Altoviti

Download or read book Vasari for Bindo Altoviti written by Barbara Agosti and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The catalogue presents 'Christ Carrying the Cross', recently rediscovered by Carlo Falciani in a private collection, which was born out of the intense friendship between the painter and art historian Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574) with Bindo Altoviti (1491-1557), important banker and refined art collector and patron. The artwork was painted in 1553, just before Vasari's return to Florence to take service as court painter of the Duke Cosimo I de' Medici. The painting shows the extremely high quality reached by Vasari's production in Rome - where he was working for Pope Julius III and where the Florentine banker Bindo Altoviti had a palace and conducted business - and, at the same time, it shows the experimentations of his manner, characterised by the re-elaboration of modern and contemporary models, in this case works of Michelangelo, Francesco Salviati and Sebastiano del Piombo.

  • Author : Ana Debenedetti
  • Publisher : UCL Press
  • Release : 2019-01-08
  • ISBN : 1787354598
  • Pages : 332 pages

Download or read book Botticelli Past and Present written by Ana Debenedetti and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent exhibitions dedicated to Botticelli around the world show, more than ever, the significant and continued debate about the artist. Botticelli Past and Present engages with this debate. The book comprises four thematic parts, spanning four centuries of Botticelli’s artistic fame and reception from the fifteenth century. Each part comprises a number of essays and includes a short introduction which positions them within the wider scholarly literature on Botticelli. The parts are organised chronologically beginning with discussion of the artist and his working practice in his own time, moving onto the progressive rediscovery of his work from the late eighteenth to the turn of the twentieth century, through to his enduring impact on contemporary art and design. Expertly written by researchers and eminent art historians and richly illustrated throughout, the broad range of essays in this book make a valuable contribution to Botticelli studies.

Book Transformations of Time and Temporality in Medieval and Renaissance Art

Download or read book Transformations of Time and Temporality in Medieval and Renaissance Art written by Simona Cohen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although studies of specific time concepts, expressed in Renaissance philosophy and literature, have not been lacking, few art-historians have endeavored to meet the challenge in the visual arts. This book presents a multifaceted picture of the dynamic concepts of time and temporality in medieval and Renaissance art, adopted in speculative, ecclesiastical, socio-political, propagandist, moralistic, and poetic contexts. It has been assumed that time was conceived in a different way by those living in the Renaissance as compared to their medieval predecessors. Changing perceptions of time, an increasingly secular approach, the sense of self-determination rooted in the practical use and control of time, and the perception of time as a threat to human existence and achievements are demonstrated through artistic media. Chapters dealing with time in classical and medieval philosophy and art are followed by studies that focus on innovative aspects of Renaissance iconography.
