Download or read book Ingres written by Susan L. Siegfried and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780-1867) produced a body of work that strongly appealed to his contemporaries while disconcerting them. Even today, the odd qualities of his work continue to fascinate scholars, critics, and artists. In this handsomely illustrated and elegantly written book, Susan L. Siegfried argues that the strangeness associated with Ingres's paintings needs to be located in the complex and richly invested nature of the work itself, as well as in the artist's very powerful--if often perverse--sense of artistic project. She shows that his major re-thinking of pictorial narrative - in his classical literary, historical, and religious subjects - was as central to his achievement as his distinctive rendering of the female figure in classical nudes and portraits. He was engaged in a complex process of giving visual form to narrative, which he did in new and unusual ways that involved him in a close reading of the texts on which he drew, including authors such as Homer, Virgil, Ariosto, and Dante, as well as religious narratives and stories about medieval and early modern French history.

Download or read book Degas written by Richard Kendall and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautiful celebration of six decades of work by Edgar Degas, published in the centennial year of the artist's death Edgar Degas's (1834-1917) relentless experimentation with technical procedures is a hallmark of his lifelong desire to learn. The numerous iterations of compositions and poses suggest an intense self-discipline, as well as a refusal to accept any creative solution as definitive or finite. Published in the centenary year of the artist's death, this book presents an exceptional array of Degas's work, including paintings, drawings, pastels, etchings, monotypes, counter proofs, and sculpture, with approximately sixty key works from private and public collections in Europe and the United States, some of them published here for the first time. Shown together, the impressive works represent well over half a century of innovation and artistic production. Essays by leading Degas scholars and conservation scientists explore his practice and recurring themes of the human figure and landscape. The book opens with a study of Degas's debt to the Old Masters, and it concludes with a consideration of his artistic legacy and his influence on leading artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, including Francis Bacon, Frank Auerbach, Ryan Gander, David Hockney, Howard Hodgkin, R. B. Kitaj, Pablo Picasso, and Walter Sickert.

Extrait: ... mon temps a le consoler.--Enfin, il fut convenu qu'il recommencerait. Un jour qu'Ingres dinait ici, nous prenions, comme aujourd'hui, a cette meme place, le cafe en plein air; je causais avec un ami, et j'etais, parait-il, dans la pose du portrait. Ingres se leve, s'approche de moi, et me parlant presque a l'oreille: Venez poser demain, me dit-il; votre portrait est fait. Le lendemain, en effet, je reprenais mes seances, qui furent de tres-courte duree; en moins d'un mois, le portrait fut acheve. J'eus la bonne fortune d'aller voir ce portrait chez M. Ingres avant l'ouverture du Salon. Je me souviens, comme si j'y etais, de l'impression etrange qu'il me produisit, et il me fallut quelques instants avant de m'accoutumer au ton violace de cette peinture. Je l'ai revu depuis bien souvent, j'en ai meme fait une copie, et je m'explique un mot de M. Ingres, que je ne comprenais pas alors: C'est le temps qui se charge de finir mes ouvrages. Ce portrait a completement perdu l'aspect qui m'avait frappe, et voici pourquoi. Les laques dont M. Ingres 'avait l'habitude de se servir sont de peu de duree, la lumiere tend a les absorber; l'huile au.contraire jaunit, 'et ses peintures anciennement faites, en perdant leurs tons violaces et en prenant une teinte doree par l'action du temps sur l'huile, ont gagne, sinon comme couleur, du moins comme aspect general. Cela etait bien sensible a l'exposition ou figurerent les deux portraits dont je parle. Celui de madame de Vaucey avait l'apparence d'un portrait...

This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 763 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chief exponent of French Neoclassical painting in the mid-nineteenth century, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres is noted for his cool, meticulously drawn works, representing the stylistic antithesis of the contemporary Romantic school. As a monumental history painter, Ingres sought to perpetuate the classical tradition of Raphael and Poussin, though today it is his portraits that are recognised as his greatest legacy. The extraordinary clarity of expression and microscopic detail of his work, rendered at a consistently, almost unbelievable quality won him many admirers. His expressive distortions of form and space made him an important precursor of modern art, influencing Degas, Picasso and Matisse. 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.
