Anton Romako: Admiral Tegettoff in the Naval Battle of Lissa
ISBN: 9783777427713 / Angielski / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Anton Romako s painting of Admiral Tegetthoff in the Naval Battle of Lissa is now celebrated as a visionary work, and is part of the canon of European art of the 19th century. This richly illustrated book traces the history of the picture and places it in the historical, military, and artistic context of its age. Admiral Tegetthoff in the Naval Battle of Lissa now seems amazingly modern, but although today we can appreciate it as a masterpiece, it was almost universally rejected and mocked when it was first shown at the Kunstlerhaus in Vienna in the summer of 1882. Anton Romako s painting of Admiral Tegetthoff in the Naval Battle of Lissa is now celebrated as a visionary work, and is part of the canon of Europ... |

Nature into Art
ISBN: 9780674594029 / Angielski / Twarda / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The nineteenth century began with reverence for nature and ended with the apotheosis of art. In this wide-ranging excursion through the literature, visual arts, and natural sciences of the era from Wordsworth to Wilde, Carl Woodring traces shifting ideas and attitudes concerning nature, art, and the relations between the two. The veneration of nature as aesthetic model and ethical norm was gradually eroded not least by the study of biology, which revealed organic nature to be wasteful and murderous. Darwin's work verified the growing perception of nature as amoral by stressing the... The nineteenth century began with reverence for nature and ended with the apotheosis of art.

The Mona Lisa Myth: How new discoveries unlock the final mystery of the world's most famous painting
ISBN: 9781492289494 / Angielski / Miękka / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Following the announcement of another Mona Lisa portrait by Leonardo da Vinci, held in a Swiss bank vault for over 40 years, this book is the first to analyze the meaning of this astonishing discovery, and how it radically changes our understanding of the Mona Lisa in the Louvre. By tracing Leonardo's movements in Florence on an almost day-to-day basis, Drs.

The authors posit that whereas the Swiss Mona...

Antonio Lopez Garcia's Everyday Urban Worlds: A Philosophy of Painting is the first book to give the famed Spanish artist the critical attention he deserves.

ISBN: 9781940567020 / Angielski / Miękka / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Cultural Problems in Western Society, introduced by Barbara Carvill, explores the unfavorable conditions in which European society and its Christian artists find themselves today. Seerveld masterfully locates current quandaries in the large timeframe stretching from Ancient Greece to the present, all the while introducing normative alternatives that are biblically oriented.
