Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the life and work of Hans Holbein, one of the most celebrated and gifted Renaissance artists. An analysis of Holbein's work explores his training as a painter by his father, as well as his early career as an illustrator and decorative painter in Basel and Lucerne. It explores his groundbreaking work in portraiture during the Reformation in Switzerland, the period of his career spent in England under the patronage of the Tudor court and, ultimately, his untimely death in London. The book explores the techniques that contributed to Holbein's success, including his mastery of characterization and his depiction of the finest details, fabrics, and textures in his subjects' clothing and accessories. Several of Holbein's most famous works are discussed, including The Meyer Madonna, The Dance of Death, and The Ambassadors, offering a rich and detailed picture of Europe's political and social climate in the 16th century.
