Download or read book The S vres Porcelain Manufactory written by Beatrice Pannequin and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tumultuous years of the French Revolution left France’s prestigious decorative arts industries poised on the brink of ruin. It was not until after the fall of the monarchy and the ascendancy of the Consulat and Empire under Napoleon that they began to recover so that by the middle of the nineteenth century they stood at the pinnacle of their achievement. This book is the first in depth study of the renowned porcelain works at Sèvres during its virtual rebirth under the 47 year direction of the scientist, teacher, and administrator Alexandre Brongniart. Some 110 working drawings from the Sèvres Archive are reproduced here for the first time in color. They celebrate the high skill of the artists whose work often documented contemporary events in France. There are table services in the 'Egyptian' and 'Etruscan' taste as well as individual pieces that recall Napoleonic military campaigns. There are also exquisite Neoclassical decorations using motifs such as birds, butterflies, and insects that reflect the century’s early fascination with the natural sciences. The repertoire of nineteenth century eclecticism is evident in the output of Sèvres from the revival of Gothic and renaissance motifs to the outburst of naturalism. Eleven essays by leading authorities assess this dynamic period.

Download or read book Le vitrail et les trait s du Moyen ge nos jours written by Karine Boulanger and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "De tous temps les artistes ont cherché à transmettre leurs réflexions théoriques et leurs savoir-faire. Les traités en sont la forme la plus aboutie, certainement la plus durable. Si les grands ouvrages de Vitruve, d'Alberti ou de Serlio jalonnent l'histoire des arts, les travaux de moindre portée, manuels pratiques, livres de recettes composent une littérature souvent négligée. Les historiens du vitrail ont entrepris avec succès l'étude de ces ouvrages. En 2006, le XXIIIe colloque international du Corpus Vitrearum a pour la première fois permis de confronter les connaissances, les méthodes et les conclusions des chercheurs. La prise en compte de l'ensemble des ouvrages que l'on peut désigner par le mot 'traité' a permis à elle seule de nombreuses découvertes et en a fait des sources désormais incontournables. Elles se prêtent à des analyses aussi diverses que stimulantes, commentaires historiques et critiques, analyses expérimentales des données techniques etc. Une voie est ainsi ouverte vers une connaissance plus complète du vitrail et vers une évaluation nouvelle de sa place parmi les autres arts."--P. 4 of cover.

Download or read book Style in the Technical and Tectonic Arts Or Practical Aesthetics written by Gottfried Semper and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 996 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The enduring influence of the architect Gottfried Semper (1803-1879) derives primarily from his monumental theoretical foray Der Stil in der technischen und tektonischen Künsten (1860-62), here translated into English for the first time. A richly illustrated survey of the technical arts (textiles, ceramics, carpentry, masonry), Semper's analysis of the preconditions of style forever changed the interpretative context for aesthetics, architecture, and art history. Style, Semper believed, should be governed by historical function, cultural affinities, creative free will, and the innate properties of each medium. Thus, in an ambitious attempt to turn nineteenth-century artistic discussion away from historicism, aestheticism, and materialism, Semper developed in Der Stil a complex picture of stylistic change based on scrutiny of specific objects and a remarkable grasp of cultural variety. Harry Francis Mallgrave's introductory essay offers an account of Semper's life and work, a survey of Der Stil, and a fresh consideration of Semper's landmark study and its lasting significance.
