This edition brings together three books based on a unique lecture series by art historian Paola Volkova. The first is "Commentary on Antiquity," which traces new connections between forms - from Stonehenge to the Globe Theater, from Crete to Spanish bullfighting, from the European Mediterranean to 20th century conceptualism - all of which are connected and cannot exist without each other. The second book, Mystics and Humanists, focuses on the Renaissance. The artists of this period, Sandro Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael and Titian, Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel the Elder, were not just artists. They were philosophers charged with the major issues of the time. Returning to the ideals of Antiquity, they created a whole, possessing an inner unity concept of the world, filled traditional religious subjects with earthly content. The last book is about the phenomenon of Impressionism. Edouard Manet and Claude Monet, Edgar Degas and Auguste Renoir, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Paul Gauguin tried to convey to the viewer the impression, the beauty of everyday reality, and to convey what the eye sees at a particular moment, and it turned out that their work once and for all influenced all subsequent art. The book invites the reader on a fascinating journey through the centuries, where he, following the story of the art historian, will be able to comprehend the images of world art culture in a new way.
