Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

Art the Quattrocento might not inappropriately be likened to one of those ideal landscapes, thickly strewn with lovely flowers, which Fra Angelico was so fond of depicting, and which form a fitting environment to Sandro Botticelli swistful symbolic figures. So varied and imposing is the prospect which meets our gaze, so beautiful and luxuriant the vegetation, that we pause in bewilderment, not knowing which flower to select for special admiration and study. For as each floral species differs from the other in brilliancy of hue and distinguishing symmetry of form, so also do we discover characteristic merits and often unsuspected greatness in each individual master of the Quattrocento, though all obeyed, with greater or minor understanding and alacrity, the mysterious force then beckoning Art irresistibly forwards on the triumphant march which led her from the unsatisfactory gropings of the Giottesque limbo to the glorious apotheosis of the Renaissance. No period was more homogeneous in its general tendencies and aspirations, or more varied in the individual elements which contributed to the realization of those tendencies and to the final triumph of those aspirations.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the eminent painter, Fra Filippo Lippi, bridging his famed talents with the historical and artistic milieu surrounding him during the Quattrocento period. Many art scholars and critics have overlooked or undervalued Fra Filippo�s artistic contributions, despite his undeniable importance in the evolution of art. This book seeks not only to establish Fra Filippo's significance in the grand scheme of art history, but also to examine his personal life, offering a more detailed and humanistic portrait of the man. Ultimately, this book asserts that Fra Filippo Lippi was an artistic giant whose impact on the art world, while often controversial, nevertheless advanced the course of art history and made him a central figure in the transition from the Gothic to the Renaissance. 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 r�f. du vendeur 9781330121771_0
