Book excerpt: Excerpt from Venetian Painting in America the Fifteenth Century For the last few years it has been the painters of Venice, and Giovanni Bellini in particular, that have preoccupied my leisure and occupied my working hours. I thought of making a book about him, and I may still do it. But should I fail to achieve this pur pose the student will be able to gather from this book, supplemented by certain essays in my third series of Study and Criticism of Italian Art, most of what I have to contribute to the subject. He will see whatworks I would ascribe to the great artist, in what chron ological order I would arrange them, how I would reconstruct the whole of the master's career, and how I would relate him to his contemporaries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Venetian Painting in America the Fifteenth Century "Now that we are on the subject of Venetian Painting," that would be a more exact title for this book. For, in fact, I have made the stray pictures in our collections the pretext for saying what I wanted to say about their authors in general. In some ways this form suits me as it suited my master, Giovanni Morelli. Like him, I have a distaste for including in my own writing questions that do not vividly interest me at the moment, no matter how important in themselves; and like him, I prefer to avoid such systematic treatment as entails dealing with materials either at second hand, or out of dimmed and attenuated recollection. It goes against the grain to write about anything that does not fascinate and absorb me. For the last few years it has been the painters of Venice, and Giovanni Bellini in particular, that have preoccupied my leisure and occupied my working hours. I thought of making a book about him, and I may still do it.

Book Venetian Painting in the 15th Century

Download or read book Venetian Painting in the 15th Century written by Otto Pächt and published by Harvey Miller. This book was released on 2003 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Otto Pacht, one of the most significant art-historians of the 'Vienna School', and well known for his analyses of Early Netherlandish art, turns his attention in this publication to the humanist circle of Early Renaissance painters in Venice, dominated by Jacopo Bellini, his sons Gentile and Giovanni, and also his son-in-law Andrea Mantegna. It was a period of newly awakened interest in the Antique, of studies made directly from nature, and of trial and error in the technique of perspective. And in addition, a new awareness of the role of light and colour in the devotional and often monumental images of the Madonna, of altarpieces and of allegories contributed to the founding of what we now recognise as the hall-mark of Venetian painting, that culminated with Titian. Of the Bellini family, it has been Giovanni who was generally regarded as the major figure of the dynasty. Pacht, however, devotes particular attention to Jacopo's work, interpreting it as the basis for his sons' later development. He analyses Jacopo's London and Paris Sketchbook drawings, demonstrating where Late Gothic elements can be seen to be overtaken by the need to give perspective depth to the image, and how subsequent painting took account of these changes. This is also the essence of Pacht's examination of Mantegna's work, where the construction of space and depth is the key to our understanding of Mantegna's creative process.Turning to the next generation of the Bellini family, Pachts guides our eyes to appreciate the refinement and perception of Gentile's portraits, and finally takes us step by step through the works of Giovanni, where fantasy combines with the play of colour and light in creating compositions, devotional images, and landscape settings of perfect harmony and beauty.
