Love and Passion in Renaissance Art. The Renaissance in Italy
69.99 €
A new book in the series "The Art of the Renaissance" about the works of art that for five hundred years have stirred the imagination of viewers with their beauty and multiple interpretations, about the people who created these works, owned them and were immortalized in them. More than 160 sumptuous illustrations of Italian Renaissance masterpieces - Leonardo da Vinci and his workshop, Titian, Botticelli, Raphael, Michelangelo, Lorenzo Lotto, and others. How were love, marriage and eroticism reflected in Renaissance art? The art historian Olga Nazarova tells us about it in detail, including some rather savory ones, sharing the latest scientific discoveries with readers in a popular way. This book is about how, for the first time since antiquity, European art has developed a visual language in which it became possible to talk about love. About the love of the divine and human, sanctified by the bonds of marriage and lawless, happy and rejected, manifested by lofty feelings and low passions. Immortal hits of Renaissance art - Botticelli's "Spring", Raphael's "Fornarina", Titian's "Love Earthly and Heavenly", Florentine wedding chests, naked Venetian beauties and many other works of Renaissance art - will appear before the reader in the context of the love culture of the era and open new facets of their meanings.
