When a world-famous artist begins to lose her eyesight and puts down her brushes, it is a tragedy. When she starts to paint again, it must surely be a miracle. What are those colors?

But she waited patiently, looking at me. I turned back to...

The Invention of Pastel Painting
ISBN: 9781904982128 / Angielski / Twarda / 31-12-2025 / 244 str. Książka dostępna od: 31-12-2025 Chalks and pastels are particularly appropriate materials for portraits because they appear effortlessly to convey the warm tones and soft, matte velvety surface of skin. Portraits and head studies therefore figure prominently in histories of pastel. The Invention of Pastel Painting describes the relatively sudden emergence in the later seventeenth century of sets of friable pastel sticks and a new artistic practice of painting in pastel. The author reconsiders the use of natural and fabricated drawing sticks as tools, firmly locating their use in the context of historical function. 'Artistic...

The authors trace the role of art in Nabokov's life, from his alphabetic chromesthesia--a psychological condition in which letters evoke specific colors--to his training under Marc Chagall's painting...

Style in the Art Theory of Early Modern Italy
ISBN: 9780521780698 / Angielski / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Style is one of the oldest and most powerful analytic tools available to art writers. Despite the importance of style as an artistic, literary, and historiographic practice, the study of it as a concept has been intermittent, perhaps, as Philip Sohm argues, because style has resisted neat definition since the very origins of art history as a discipline. His analysis of the language that painters and their literate public used to characterize painters and paintings will enrich our understanding about the concept of style.
