Abstract

Shawna Lemay scrutinizes some of the best-known art masterpieces of the Western world, alerting her readers to the power and peril of seduction. All the God-sized Fruit melds the sister arts - poetry and painting - in a sensual exploration of history, forgery, and violation. In poems rich with sensory pleasure, Lemay explores the place where image and inspiration meet.

Abstract

The essays collected in Donum discuss different aspects of Florentine art from the 16th to the 18th century, such as sculptures displayed in gardens and palaces, the collecting preferences and strategies of the Medici family and those of the Tuscan aristocracy, drawings and paintings by local and foreign artists, and baroque wall decoration: these topics are analyzed in light of newly discovered artworks or previously unpublished documents. The common thread binding the papers together is the research method based on the study of archival sources and historical contexts, and on the connoisseurship. The volume gathers art historians who had been involved in the conference held in 2016 in honor of Mara Visonà as well as other scholars educated at the University of Florence.

Abstract

The story of Australian art does not begin and end with landscape. This book puts flowers front and centre, because they have often been ignored in preference for more masculine themes.Departing from where studies of single flower artists leave off, Useless Beauty embraces the general topic of flowers in Australian art and shines new light on a slice of Australian art history that extends from 1880 to 1950. It is the first book of broad chronology to discuss Australian art through blossoms, which it does by addressing stories of major figures including Hans Heysen, Margaret Preston and Sidney

Fritz von Uhdes "Kinderstube" : die Darstellung des Kindes in seinem Spiel- und Wohnmilieu

Abstract

Im Jahr 1889 malte Fritz von Uhde die Kinderstube, die seine drei Töchter in ihrem Spiel- und Schlafraum zeigt. Wie selbstverständlich mutet dem heutigen Betrachter diese detailreiche und lebendige Szene an und doch gibt es nur wenige vergleichbare Darstellungen. Gemälde und Grafiken vom späten Mittelalter bis zum ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert zeigen die Ikonografie des spielenden Kindes sowie gängige Spiel- und Wohnmilieus und machen deutlich, dass erst seit gut 200 Jahren vermehrt Räume mit der Funktionszuschreibung eines Kinderzimmers versehen wurden. Dies hängt eng mit einer sich wandelnden Beurteilung der Kindheitsphase und des Kinderspiels zusammen, was wahrnehmbare Auswirkungen auf die Darstellungsmodi und -kontexte hat. Inwieweit Uhdes Kinderstube mit der alltäglichen Lebenswelt bürgerlicher Kinder in Verbindung gebracht werden kann, veranschaulichen sachkulturelle und schriftlichen Überlieferungen. Sie eröffnen Einblicke in die Verbreitung und Einrichtung von Kinderstuben, in gängige Spiele und Spielzeuge sowie zu Kinderkleidung im 19. Jahrhundert. Durch diesen interdisziplinären Forschungsansatz zeichnet die Untersuchung ein umfassendes und lebendiges Bild vergangener kindlicher Lebenswelten.

Abstract

"Vacillating between the majesty of the Greco-Byzantine heritage and the modernity forecasted by Giotto, Early Italian painting summarises the first steps that led to the Renaissance. Trying out new media, those first artists left frescoes for removable panels. If the sacred faces shock us novices, this distance was more than wanted during this era and in order to emphasise the divinity of the characters; it highlighted their divinity and comforted the sanctified with a background covered with gold leaves. The elegance of the line and the colour choice was combined to reinforce the symbolic choices. The half-confessed ultimate goal of the early Italian artists was to make the invisible ... visible. In this magnificent book, the author emphasises the importance that the rivalry between the Siennese and Florentine schools played for the evolution of art history. And the reader, in the course of these forgotten masterworks, will discover how, little by little, the sacred became incarnate and more human ... opening a discrete but definitive door through the use of anthropomorphism, as was cherished by the Renaissance."-- Publisher's website
