Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mantegna; humanist, geometrist, archaeologist, of great scholastic and imaginative intelligence, dominated the whole of northern Italy by virtue of his imperious personality. Aiming at optical illusion, he mastered perspective. He trained in painting at the Padua School where Donatello and Paolo Uccello had previously attended. Even at a young age commissions for Andrea’s work flooded in, for example the frescos of the Ovetari Chapel of Padua. In a short space of time Mantegna found his niche as a modernist due to his highly original ideas and the use of perspective in his works. His marriage with Nicolosia Bellini, the sister of Giovanni, paved the way for his entree into Venice. Mantegna reached an artistic maturity with his Pala San Zeno. He remained in Mantova and became the artist for one of the most prestigious courts in Italy – the Court of Gonzaga. Classical art was born. Despite his links with Bellini and Leonardo da Vinci, Mantegna refused to adopt their innovative use of colour or leave behind his own technique of engraving.

This book was released on 2020-05-02 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important northern Italian artist of the early Renaissance, Andrea Mantegna was a student of Roman archaeology and the son-in-law of Jacopo Bellini. A pioneering master of perspective, Mantegna used pictorial devices such as extreme foreshortening, lowering the horizon to create greater monumentality and rendering his figures as more rounded and modelled, with Donatellian naturalism. His masterpieces are renowned for their minute attention to detail, rendering rocky and metallic landscapes with a fundamentally sculptural approach to painting. His paintings were highly sought after by Europe’s royal houses, while Dürer, Rubens and Rembrandt are just a few of the artists that copied and learnt from his works. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few artists have managed to imprint their personality so indelibly on posterity as Andrea Mantegna (c. 1430-1506). Before he reached the age of twenty, Mantegna was already being praised for his "alto ingegno" (exalted genius), and he became the court artist for the Gonzaga family in Mantua before he was thirty. Yet, this book argues, Mantegna was not simply a great painter. Together with Donatello, he was the defining genius of the 15th century: the measure of what an artist could be. His highly original and deeply personal vision, the descriptive richness of his pictures, and his biting, hypercritical but always exalted mind gave Mantegna's art an extraordinary edge and earned him a preeminent place in the Renaissance.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1901 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II LIFE IN MANTUA THE interest of the Marquis in the decoration of his chapel at the time of Mantegna's departure from Padua, leads to the presumption that his first employment on his arrival in Mantua was the painting of its altar-piece. This would seem, without doubt, to be the Tryptych of the Uffizi, which until the siege of Mantua, still remained in possession of the Gonzaga family. Another work may also be placed in these first years, during which the documents are silent--The Death of the Virgin, now in Madrid, with its view of the Mantuan lake crossed by the Ponte S. Giorgio. The first documentary record we have of him is a letter of December, 1463, dated from Goito, a favourite hunting castle of the Marquis, on the decoration of which he was employed. (Now, alas! so far from any vestige of his work remaining, the very building itself has vanished, and only a few ruined walls survive to show its beautiful position on the banks of the swiftlyflowing Mincio.) This letter contains a demand for his salary, unpaid for four months, the first hint at those financial difficulties which so constantly harassed his life in Mantua. Lodovico, with his luxurious tastes and his passion for building, was often short of money, a time of peace meaning a time of empty treasuries, as Mantegna many times experienced. On this occasion, however, he had not long to wait, the Marquis sending him on the same day part of the money--thirty ducats --with promise of speedy payment of the rest. From Goito he seems to have been sent to paint in the neighbouring palace of Cavriana, but there also no vestige of his work remains, and of the first six years of his life in Mantua we have no further notice. In the summer of 1466 he was sent to Florence, to...
