Italian Baroque Art

Angebote / Angebote:

Grandeur, intensity, passion, and motion - these are the defining characteristics of art created during the Baroque period in 17th and early 18th-century Italy. This rich and turbulent era heralds the Age of Enlightenment, and Italian art engages closely with key intellectual debates of the period, including the secular vs. the sacred, the role of the individual within a Catholic state, and the rise of cultural politics over military might. This anthology presents classic and recent scholarship on Italian art from 1600-1750, highlighting key debates with which art historians continue to grapple. Its essays explore the concept of style or the visuality of art, the creation and utilization of art, artistic communication as projected and experienced, and artists' interactions with the ancient world and the new sciences. Italian Baroque Art is an innovative, intellectual, and instructional collection for students and lovers of 17th and 18th-century art.
