Download or read book Roman Art written by Susan Walker and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The grand monuments scattered across Europe, the Near East and northern Africa are impressive reminders of the art of the Roman Empire, but they only tell part of the story. The artistic legacy of the Romans also survives in many other forms, and in this book Susan Walker focuses on four main themes--the heritage of Greece, portraiture, public art, and furnishing and decorating homes. From the early Republic through to the later Empire the taste for Greek culture was an important influence on the Romans, but one which they adapted to create an art uniquely theirs. Drawing on the magnificent collections of the British Museum, Dr Walker discusses a wide range of Roman antiquities, from monumental sculpture for public places, portraits of emperors and private citizens, to mosaics, wall-paintings and tableware for enjoyment in more intimate surroundings.

Book excerpt: Andreas Petzold examines medieval European art in the broader context of its relationship to the art of Byzantium and Islam, tracing the influences among these cultures through trade and the Crusades. He views Romanesque art in terms of the social structures that organized the medieval world - church, princely court, peasant society - discovering on the way the important role of women as artists and patrons, the complex relationships among religious and secular institutions, and the ways that sculpture, architecture, painting, and other art forms developed in style and technique to express a world no longer Classical but not yet Gothic.

Download or read book Romanesque Art written by Meyer Schapiro and published by New York : G. Braziller. This book was released on 1977 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This long-awaited volume, which includes much valuable material on Romanesque Art that has been unavailable for many years, will be of interest not only to students of the history of art or of medieval history and culture in general, but also to all readers concerned with the broadest problems of aesthetics, the history of ideas, and the sociology of art and religion. The first in a four-volume series of Meyer Schapiro's Selected Papers (future volumes will range from Modern Art to Early Christian and Byzantine art forms and will include papers on the Theory and Philosophy of Art), this publication embodies a number of Professor Schapiro's seminal studies of Romanesque sculptures, together with articles on manuscript art linked to those sculptures. Of particular relevance is the richly illustrated study of the sculptures of the cloister and portal in the French abbey of Moissac, which was one of the first approaches to those master works from an artistic point of view. This classic analysis is complemented by a consideration of Mozarabic and Romanesque styles in manuscript paintings and some sculptures from the Castilian abbey of Silos - a study of artistic innovation as an historical process in the context of changes in religious, social, and political life. Still another chapter treats the aesthetic response of individuals during the eleventh and twelfth centuries to Romanesque Art through a series of translated texts of that period which have an extraordinarily modern flavor. These papers are wide-ranging studies of many aspects of Romanesque Art: the forms, the expressive character, the content, the social roots, the historical moment and situation - all investigated in a searching but also imaginative way. Artistic structures are approached with the same objectivity as the documents and the archaeological data. With that graceful scholarship for which he is justly honored and admired, the author applies evidence from literature, religious texts, folklore, social and political history, epigraphy, and paleography in reconstructing and interpreting the contents of the works of art." --
