Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an exhaustive treatise on Polygraphice, a term the author uses to describe a broad range of visual arts, encompassing painting, drawing, and engraving. While the book draws inspiration from the classical philosophies of light, proportion, and passion, the author presents this knowledge in a novel way, taking into account the discoveries of the Renaissance. The author places a particular emphasis on the technical aspects of the arts, including the construction of tools and the practicalities of applying color and working with light. The book is thus a valuable resource both for historians of art seeking an understanding of early modern practices, and for contemporary artists seeking to gain mastery over the fundamentals of their craft. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282319120_0
