Abstract

The recent rediscovery in Spain of Pieter Bruegel the Elder's lost painting 'The wine of Saint Martin's Day', has created even more interest in this much-loved artist, who was one of the Netherlands' two great masters of satire and fantasy, along with Hieronymus Bosch. In this new monograph, Larry Silver, an eminent historian of Northern Renaissance art, serves as our guide to that world. He leads us expertly through Bruegel's complex and fascinating iconography, allowing us to see his paintings and drawings from the same perspective as his sixteenth-century countrymen. Silver situates Bruegel within the visual culture of his time - exploring, for example, his relationship with the print publisher Hieronymus Cock - and within the broader context of Netherlandish history. All of Bruegel's surviving paintings are reproduced here, with many full-page details, as well as all of his prints and representative works by his contemporaries and followers.

Abstract

"Long before the photo op, political rulers were manipulating visual imagery to cultivate their authority and spread their ideology. Born just decades after Gutenberg, the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I (1459-1519) was, Larry Silver argues, the first ruler to exploit the propaganda power of printed images and text. Marketing Maximilian explores how Maximilian used illustrations and other visual arts to shape his image, achieve what Max Weber calls "the routinization of charisma," strengthen the power of the Hapsburg dynasty, and help establish the Austro-Hungarian Empire. A fascinating study of the self-fashioning of an early modern ruler who was as much image-maker as emperor, Marketing Maximilian shows why Maximilian remains one of the most remarkable, innovative, and self-aggrandizing royal art patrons in European history. Silver describes how Maximilian--lacking a real capital or court center, the ability to tax, and an easily manageable territory- undertook a vast and expensive visual-media campaign to forward his extravagant claims to imperial rank, noble blood, perfect virtues, and military success. To press these claims, Maximilian patronized and often personally supervised and collaborated with the best printers, craftsmen, and artists of his time (among them no less than Albrecht Durer) to plan and produce illustrated books, medals, heralds, armor, and an ambitious tomb monument."

Abstract

Investigates the origins of new pictorial types and their media as a phenomenon of sixteenth-century Antwerp. It interprets several pictorial genres - scenes of taverns and markets, landscapes and peasants at work and play, still-life compositions - and charts their evolution and their role in the development and marketing of individual artistic styles, known as "signature" artistic style. Larry Silver argues that consumer interest in the style of individual artists reinforced another phenomenon of the later sixteenth century : art collecting.

Abstract

Récemment, la redécouverte extraordinaire, en Espagne, d'un tableau perdu de Pieter Bruegel l'Ancien (vers 1525-1569) a fait l'effet d'une bombe et a ravivé l'intérêt que le public porte à ce grand peintre flamand. Cette oeuvre a subi les outrages du temps et est encore en restauration au Prado. Célèbre pour ses descriptions amusantes de paysans, de paysages de toutes saisons et de tableaux à la façon de Bosch, Bruegel a également créé de nombreuses peintures consacrées à des thèmes religieux. Après une carrière de plus de vingt ans de dessinateur et de peintre, il se fit un nom dans la "capitale du capitalisme", Anvers, le centre du commerce international et le leader du marché de l'art. Cet ouvrage examine tout l'ouvre de Bruegel alors même que sera présentée une foule de peintres flamands de sa génération qui ont coopéré avec Jérôme Cock, son éditeur de gravures. Bruegel est ici confronté non seulement avec ses rivaux d'Anvers, mais aussi avec les peintres qui l'ont inspiré, de loin ou de près, comme Joachim Patinir, Rogier van der Weyden ou Jérôme Bosch. Le contexte historique dans lequel Bruegel a vécu est longuement décrit : c'était en effet une époque de troubles religieux intenses opposant le roi d'Espagne, le catholique Philippe II, aux calvinistes naissants. L'iconoclasme de 1566 fut un des détonateurs qui allait engendrer la fameuse Révolte des Gueux ou Guerre de Quatre-Vingts Ans. Bruegel ne fut évidemment pas indifférent à ces événements, qu'il a "discrètement" retranscris dans sa peinture, n'osant pas dénoncer clairement les abus du pouvoir tant était grand le risque de poursuites et de représailles sévères. Les historiens de l'art trouveront certainement dans ce livre un nouveau point de vue sur l'oeuvre du peintre qui éclairera certaines de leurs conceptions, mais il s'agit ici d'aller également à la rencontre d'un public plus large qui découvrira, ou redécouvrira avec plaisir les facéties, les symboles, les scènes paysannes qui ont permis à Bruegel de faire un portrait sans faille de la condition humaine.

Abstract

Because Dutch seventeenth-century painting is primarily known for its naturalism, representing the divine posed particular problems for painters of religious stories, especially Rembrandt. Indeed, if seeing is believing, then the visible presence of angels – and finally the presence on earth of Christ as the divine Incarnation in the flesh – could confirm to the senses the presence of divine providence in the world. Angels also evoke a sense of wonder in all who behold them, those who are blessed to receive their visitation from a watchful, if invisible God. Like John Calvin, Rembrandt carefully read his Bible. Thus his angels, represented traditionally as winged creatures, actively participate in important religious events, particularly in Old Testament scenes, beginning with Abraham. In later biblical history, however, angelic appearances diminish; both God – and angels as His agents – intervene less directly to interact with humankind. In Rembrandt’s art, angels are active and visible, but sometimes they reveal their identity just as they disappear, flying away. Other Rembrandt religious images convey divine presence only through light rays from above. With the New Testament advent of Christ, however, angelic attendants chiefly magnify the divine nature of Jesus in the world. Following the theology of John Calvin that dominated Dutch spirituality, Rembrandt allows his pious viewers to behold those very angels or, like Mary Magdalene and the apostles, even to view the divine nature of the risen Christ

Abstract

Rembrandt van Rijn and the Netherlands grew up together. The artist, born in Leiden in 1606, lived during the tumultuous period of the Dutch Revolt and the establishment of the independent Dutch Republic. He moved to Amsterdam, a cosmopolitan centre of world trade, and became the city's most fashionable portraitist. His attempts to establish himself with the powerful court at The Hague failed, however, and the final decade of his life was marked by financial hardship and personal tragedy. Rembrandt's Holland considers anew the life and work of this celebrated painter as it charts his career alongside the visual culture of urban Amsterdam and the new Dutch Republic. It brings to light his problematic relationship with the ruling court at The Hague and re-examines how his art developed, from large-scale, detailed religious imagery to more personal drawings and etchings, moving self-portraits and heartfelt close-ups of saintly figures. Featuring up-to-date scholarship and in-depth analysis of Rembrandt's major works, as well as numerous beautiful images, Rembrandt's Holland is essential reading for art students and those who enjoy the work of the Dutch Masters.

Abstract

"Europe Views the World examines the wide diversity of images that Europeans produced to represent the wide variety of peoples and places around the globe during and after the so-called 'Age of Exploration.' Beginning with the medieval imagery of Europe's imagined alien races, and with an emphasis on the artists of Northern Europe, Larry Silver takes the reader on a tour across continents, from the Americas to Africa and Asia. Encompassing works such as prints, paintings, maps, tapestries, and sculptural objects, this book addresses the overall question of an emerging European self-definition through the evidence of visual culture, however biased, about the wider world in its component parts. Unique to this book, each chapter concludes with an 'in response,' analysing representations of Europeans by indigenous peoples of each continent to give a deeper and more multi-faceted account of the impact of Europe's view of the world."--Publisher's description.
