The ten essays in A Market for Merchant Princes trace the progression of American collectors' taste for Italian Renaissance masterpieces from the antebellum era, through the Gilded Age, to the later twentieth century. By focusing variously on issues of supply and demand, reliance on advisers, the role of travel, and the civic-mindedness of American...

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.

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:...

The book addresses the scientific debates on Rembrandt, Metsu, Vermeer, and Hoogstraten that are currently taking place in art history and cultural studies.

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...
