Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the life and career of Antonio Canova, the Italian neoclassical sculptor, from his childhood in Possagno through his ascent to become the preeminent sculptor of the Napoleonic and Restoration eras. The author details Canova's development as an artist, from his early training in Venice to his grand tour of Rome and his subsequent establishment in the papal court. The book explores Canova's relationships with the major artistic and political figures of his time, including Popes Pius VI and Pius VII, Napoleon Bonaparte, and the various rulers of Europe for whom he created major works. The book also delves into the complex and often contradictory artistic and political forces at play in Canova's life and work, shedding light on the ways in which his art both reflected and shaped the cultural and political landscape of his time. The author's insights on Canova's artistic process, his role in the development of neoclassicism, and his enduring legacy make this book an essential read for anyone interested in the history of art.
