Synopsis
CHAPTER I (NTRODUCTION To those people whose imaginations are adequately sentient to the true message of art the personality of a great master reveals itself like a radiant gleam of colour in some beloved and oft visited canvas-some climax of sound in a symphony or concerto. The colour, getting and spending beauty in its perfect environment becomes a mere patch of red or yellow when parted from its setting, and a similar degeneration befalls the musical phrase when heard dissociated from the prelude and sequence which helped to build up its dignity and expression. But the case of the hypothetical master stands on a somewhat different ground. However completely he may fill his place in the hierarchy of art. however much of charm may evaporate when he comes to be treated individually and apart, the 105s here will not be so manifest as in either of the instances just cited. He remains a potent operative force) a subject for treatment only

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and works of Italian painter Piero della Francesca. The author explores the artistic career of Piero, beginning with his apprenticeship under Domenico Veneziano. The author describes the influence of Piero's contemporaries on his development, such as Masaccio and Uccello, but also notes his distinctive use of perspective, a skill he shared with his teacher. The author examines the artist's relationship to the humanist culture of his time, discussing how Piero's work reflects the intellectual currents of the Renaissance. He discusses the importance of Piero's work within the context of other significant artistic movements, such as the Early Renaissance and the High Renaissance. The author also explores Piero's technical innovations, particularly his mastery of perspective and his use of geometric forms to create a sense of depth and realism in his paintings. The author concludes by assessing Piero's legacy, arguing that his work has had a profound influence on subsequent generations of artists. 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 9781451001570_0
