The Northern Renaissance is not so much a variation of a process common to Europe as an independent and profoundly distinctive phenomenon. German and Netherlandish artists Jan van Eyck, Hieronymus Bosch, Albrecht Dürer, Pieter Bruegel the Elder and Matthias Grünewald did not limit themselves to copying certain forms of Italian painting, but embodied in their work their own original vision, imbued with a mystical worldview and symbolism. Their fanciful paintings intertwine the religious with the mundane, God manifests himself in the harmony of nature, biblical subjects penetrate into earthly life and reflect the desperate search for truth, anxious premonitions, the quiet poetry of everyday life in all its details - and the ugliness, the meaninglessness of life without a spiritual beginning.
This illustrated edition contains lectures by art historian Paola Dmitrievna Volkova, author of the famous series "Bridge over the Abyss", devoted to the artists of the Northern Renaissance, revised and supplemented for the convenience of the reader. The book is for those who appreciate art and want to get a truly valuable gift to their library.
