Indlæser... What Great Paintings Say (Taschen 25 Anniversary) (udgave 2007)| 314 | 1 | 83,474 | 
(4.16) | Ingen | Surreptitious messages, concealed myths, and historical truths lie hidden in the great works of the Italian Renaissance, behind heavy gold leaf and religious symbology. Although often obscured by the archaic language of historical painting, careful analysis and expert interpretation bring these images to life. Discover masterpieces of the most beloved creative epoch in this fascinating art historical inquiry. Images of war, romance, birth, and knowledge, works of the Italian Renaissance have much to say, when given a voice. Rose-Marie and Rainer Hagen do just that--pulling apart each of the 12 featured paintings with all the talent of true detectives to offer an illuminating portal to the past. From Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam to Ucello's The Battle of San Romano, from Antonello da Messina's St. Jerome in His Study to Pinturicchio's Penelope with the Suitors, the artworks under investigation are a diverse representation of the period's innovation and brilliance, sourced directly from some of the most impressive collections in the world, including the Uffizi, Prado, and National Gallery London.… (mere) |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. [Beautiful Nudes] It had been a thousand years since anyone in Europe had seen the like of it: an almost life-sized nude, the representation of a naked woman, a picture of perfect corporeal grace—Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of beauty and love, whom the Romans called Venus, reborn in Renaissance Florence.  [Faces of Power] Whether we want to or not, we have to look up to Theodora. [What Great Paintings Say, Volume 1 (2000)] In 1025, at the Council of Arras in northern France, the clergy decided to embellish their churches with decorations of a new type. | |
