"The Renaissance" features all the obvious well-known Italian masters such as Fra Angelico, Michelangelo, Masaccio, Titian, Raphael, Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci. But what makes this book different is that it also covers the great Dutch and German masters, such as Van Eyck, Bosch, Bruegel, Holbein, Durer and the Spanish painter El Greco. It is a rich chronological survey of the splendour and wealth of Renaissance art from the end of the Gothic period to the beginning of the Baroque period (1401-1610). In addition to all the superb paintings, the book also features the best in sculpture and architecture during this period. Carefully designed and illustrated with more than 500 colour illustrations, many of them large-scale reproductions, "The Renaissance" should appeal to everyone interested in this popular period of painting.

The Renaissance

Collins

Filled with great masterpieces by such artists as Botticelli, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Masaccio, Piero della Francesca, Mantegna and Titian, "Understanding Italian Renaissance Painting" takes a journey into their world. As in the acclaimed and innovative "How to Read a Painting", each spread uses an important painting as a way to explain a key concept, with numerous large details. Here, 180 works illuminate key ideas in Renaissance painting, from perspective and the golden section to grace and symbolism. In addition, there are brief biographies of the major artists. The result is an original, accessible and affordable volume that offers an introduction into the art and culture of the Italian Renaissance.

385pages. in8. Broché. Ce volume, indispensable pour comprendre vraiment les œuvres présentées dans les expositions et les musées, plonge dans l'immense océan de l'art sacré pour affronter, une à une, les scènes tirées des Évangiles canoniques mais aussi des textes apocryphes, des interprétations médiévales, des visions des mystiques et des pratiques de piété qui en ont résulté. Un monde d'images qui appartient à la tradition chrétienne, que tous les grands maîtres du passé ont contribué à créer, et qui se révèle inattendu: en effet, grâce à ce livre, on découvre, à côté de scènes immédiatement compréhensibles, des personnages, des épisodes, des situations moins célèbres, avec des images toujours séduisantes et des textes captivants.

Editions Hazan

This generously illustrated volume on the work of Leonardo da Vinci makes the world's greatest art accessible to readers of every level of appreciation. Although less than twenty of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings are known to exist today, some of them-the Mona Lisa, The Last Supper, along with his drawing of the Vitruvian man-are among the most identifiable, reproduced, and popular works in the world. This monograph explores Leonardo as not just a painter but also a scientist, naturalist, architect, and engineer, showing how the artist's oeuvre reflected his boundless curiousity and imagination. Overflowing with impeccably reproduced images, this book offers full-page spreads of masterpieces as well as highlights of smaller details-allowing the viewer to appreciate every aspect of the artist's technique and oeuvre. Chronologically arranged, the book covers important biographical and historic events that reflect the latest scholarship. Additional information includes a list of works, timeline, and suggestions for further reading.
