A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Brand new full-color edition with 49 reproductions of classic masterpieces. Adapted from his Scammon Lectures at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1911, Kenyon Cox lays the groundwork of a rational perspective of art history for painters and art connoisseurs seeking to learn the key elements that instilled life and nobility in the paintings of the great masters, from the Quattrocento to the Rococo. Cox explains how the strict naturalism taught at the later French Academy, though technically advanced, failed to capture the expressive vigor found in the paintings of earlier masters, and how the confusion of aesthetic cross currents reacting against the Academy in the nineteenth century deviated into the jejune theories of modern art. This edition features 49 full color reproductions of masterpieces by Giotto, Leonardo da Vinci, Pietro Perugino, Raphael, Sandro Botticelli, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Titian, Tintoretto, Peter Paul Rubens, Hans Holbein the Younger, Giorgione, Rembrandt van Rijn, Jean-Baptiste Greuze, William Hogarth, Nicolas Poussin, Diego Velázquez, Paolo Veronese, Antonio da Correggio, Jan van Eyck, Andrea Mantegna, Anthony van Dyck, Eugène Delacroix, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Kenyon Cox, Jean-François Millet, Alfred Stevens, Emanuel Leutze, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Winslow Homer, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Jacques-Louis David, Pierre-Paul Prud’hon, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, Jules Dupré, and Jean-Antoine Watteau.
