In this, the latest book in the Enjoying Great Art Series, we will examine the Magi in paintings, as well as in scripture, history, legends, and songs. Like other books in the series, this one contains dozens of paintings along this particular theme. Unlike most of the others, though, this one also includes several pages of text, in this case giving us more information on the topic, the Magi (the Wise Men) and the star they followed. How often during the Christmas season, or other times of the year, do we consider the Wise Men and their trip to see Christ? For most of us, not often. Maybe we...

In Art: Three "Vices"
ISBN: 9781505733396 / Angielski / Miękka / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Generally the "In Art" books are intended to be enjoyed by adults and students of all ages. This particular book deviates from the norm. None of the pictures are actually risque, they just aren't all the typical "family friendly" type we like to focus on. This book was an opportunity to show how the more adult themes of gambling, smoking, and drinking have shown up in paintings through the ages. This book highlights more than three dozen paintings that span many centuries...See what these many artists, including Renoir and Degas, have done with these "vices.""

In Art: Van Gogh
ISBN: 9781506001685 / Angielski / Miękka / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most of the books in the Enjoying Great Art series are topical - on a variety of topics ranging from horses to nobility, and from necklaces to maps. But occasionally, the need arises to focus on a particular artist. Leonardo da Vinci was the first to warrant his own book in the series, and now Vincent van Gogh joins that limited list. Van Gogh's artist career was much shorter than da Vinci's, but in less than ten years, van Gogh completed almost a thousand oil paintings, and over a thousand sketches and water colors. So, while In Art: Leonardo includes all of da Vinci's known works, In Art:...

In Art: Rembrandt
ISBN: 9781508641230 / Angielski / Miękka / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

He was especially well known for his portraits (and did an extraordinary number of self-portraits), but he also did Bible and history scenes, and even an occasional landscape. A book this size cannot be an exhaustive look at an artist like Rembrandt, but it can serve to introduce him to adults and students of all ages. The book contains copies of more than four dozen of Rembrandt's paintings, including more than two dozen of his self-portraits. (Rembrandt often painted his Jewish...

Gombrich Among the Egyptians and Other Essays in the History of Art
ISBN: 9780692397145 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this collection of essays, five previously published and three new in this volume, a western historian of Chinese art examines the received ideas of art history from the vantage point of another culture. On the premise that what we feel a need to explain and how we explain it alike depend on what we assume to be normal, the essays all adopt a comparative approach. Whatever body of material is taken as case study--Gothic churches, Egyptian reliefs, Chinese bronzes, Insular gospel manuscripts--the problems addressed are of broad general relevance to the discipline. They include the nature... In this collection of essays, five previously published and three new in this volume, a western historian of Chinese art examines the received idea... |
