IN" Ghiberti's hands sculpture was fast taking a character not strictly its own, but belonging more to the pictorial art. His successor and rival, Donatello, by his just appreciation of the aims and limits of the plastic art, and by a stern realism, brought it back within the true bounds of sculpture, and gave it new impetus, laying the foundation of that school of earnest, severe art, which culminated in the intense works of Michelangelo "il Terribile." It is difficult to say from whom Donatello had his artistic taste. It was not hereditary, his father being a wool-comber in the parish of S. Pier Gattolini, whose turbulent political opinions had been the cause of his exile to Pisa, and thence to Lucca. He returned to Florence, however, in 1380, and in 1386 his son Donato 1 was born. When quite a child Donatello was taken into the house of the noble family of the Martelli, who had always been lovers and patrons of art. Probably his surroundings here trained his taste, and decided his benefactors on the bias which they should give to his 1 Donato di Betto Bardi was his real name, but he has always been known as Donatello. education. Some say be was a pupil of Bicci di Lorenzo, others that he studied under Ghiberti's father; but nothing is certain except that he assisted Ghiberti himself in casting the bronze gates, and that he formed a close friendship with Brunellesco, which had perhaps more to do in forming the future career of both than any other influence. There was some difference of age between them; Brunellesco was a man of twenty-three, while Donato was a mere impulsive boy of fourteen, very proud of his first work, a crucifix in wood. But alas! when he expected his friend's praise, he only got his derision and...

Download or read book The Art of Sculpture in Fifteenth Century Italy written by Amy R. Bloch and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-31 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteenth-century Italy witnessed sweeping innovations in the art of sculpture. Sculptors rediscovered new types of images from classical antiquity and invented new ones, devised novel ways to finish surfaces, and pushed the limits of their materials to new expressive extremes. The Art of Sculpture in Fifteenth-Century Italy surveys the sculptural production created by a range of artists throughout the peninsula. It offers a comprehensive overview of Italian sculpture during a century of intense creativity and development. Here, nineteen historians of Quattrocento Italian sculpture chart the many competing forces that led makers, patrons, and viewers to invest sculpture with such heightened importance in this time and place. Methodologically wide-ranging, the essays, specially commissioned for this volume, explore the vast range of techniques and media (stone, metal, wood, terracotta, and stucco) used to fashion works of sculpture. They also examine how viewers encountered those objects, discuss varying approaches to narrative, and ponder the increasing contemporary interest in the relationship between sculpture and history.

Download or read book Donatello and the Dawn of Renaissance Art written by A. Victor Coonin and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2019-11-15 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Italian sculptor known as Donatello helped to forge a new kind of art—one that came to define the Renaissance. His work was progressive, challenging, and even controversial. Using a variety of novel sculptural techniques and innovative interpretations, Donatello uniquely depicted themes involving human sexuality, violence, spirituality, and beauty. But to really understand Donatello, one needs to understand his changing world, marked by the transition from Medieval to Renaissance style and to an art that was more personal and representative of the modern self. Donatello was not just a man of his times, he helped shape the spirit of the times he lived in and profoundly influenced those that came after. In this beautifully illustrated book—the first thorough biography of Donatello in twenty-five years—A. Victor Coonin describes the full extent of Donatello’s revolutionary contributions, revealing how his work heralded the emergence of modern art.
