They were the pinnacles of a tradition--dating from the early Renaissance--of commemorating betrothal, marriage, and the birth of a child by commissioning extraordinary objects or exchanging them as gifts. This important volume is the first to examine the entire range of works to which Renaissance rituals of love and marriage gave rise and makes a major contribution to our understanding of Renaissance art in its broader cultural context. Some 140 works of art, dating from about 1400 to 1600, are discussed by a distinguished group of scholars and are reproduced in full color. Marriage and childbirth gifts are the point of departure. These range from maiolica, glassware, and jewelry to birth trays, musical instruments, and nuptial portraits. Bonds of love of another sort were represented in erotic drawings and prints. From these precedents, an increasingly inventive approach to subjects of love and marriage culminated in paintings by some of the greatest artists of the Renaissance, including Giulio Romano, Lorenzo Lotto, and Titian. This book was originally published in 2008 and has gone out of print. This edition is a print-on-demand version of the original book." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Directors' foreword; Lenders to the Exhibition; Contributors to the catalogue; Introduction: art and love in Renaissance Italy, by Andrea Bayer; Marriage as a key to understanding the past, by Deborah L.

Vendeur : Mullen Books, ABAA, Marietta, PA, Etats-Unis
Softbound. Etat : VG++. Color illustrated glossy wraps. 392 pp. with 375 illustrations, including 300 color plates. Issued in conjunction with several 2008-2009 exhibitions. "Many famous artworks of the Italian Renaissance were made to celebrate love, marriage, and family. They were the pinnacles of a tradition, dating from early in the era, of commemorating betrothals, marriages, and the birth of children by commissioning extraordinary objects -- maiolica, glassware, jewels, textiles, paintings -- that were often also exchanged as gifts. This volume is the first comprehensive survey of artworks arising from Renaissance rituals of love and marriage and makes a major contribution to our understanding of Renaissance art in its broader cultural context. The impressive range of works gathered in these pages extends from birth trays painted in the early fifteenth century to large canvases on mythological themes that Titian painted in the mid-1500s. Each work of art would have been recognized by contemporary viewers for its prescribed function within the private, domestic domain." (hb dj). N° de réf. du vendeur 109918000001
