Book Description
As part of the year in honour of Poland, the Louvre displays, from 5 October 2004 to 10 January 2005, a number of works depicting the city of Warsaw by Bernardo Bellotto, an eighteenth century Italian painter. Bellotto's set of views of the city of Warsaw is not only remarkably beautiful, but is also an incomparable iconographic and historical record. Bellotto was one of the greatest Italian city painters of the eighteenth century. The set is outstanding both for the large number of paintings on the same subject, and for its usefulness during the reconstruction of Warsaw after the Second World War, for it enabled the old city centre to be rebuilt as it was in the eighteenth century. This book contains all 23 of Bellotto's paintings from the museum in the Royal Castle, Warsaw, not just the 18 paintings exhibited in the Louvre. The reproductions are large and accompanied by details. The commentaries take an iconographic approach and draw on historical evidence; some works are compared with photos of

Canaletto
Author: Alte Pinakothek (Munich, Germany)
Publisher: Hirmer Verlag GmbH
ISBN: 9783777422473
Category : Art, Italian
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In 1761, Bernardo Bellotto painted his famous panorama of Munich, signing the painting "Canaletto"--as he signed many of his paintings--in tribute to his uncle and teacher Giovanni Antonio Canal. In addition to the famous panorama, Bellotto completed over the course of several months two stunning palace views for the Duke of Bavaria, Maximilian III Joseph. Placing Bellotto's Munich paintings within the artist's broader body of work, this well-illustrated book highlights the Italian painter and printmaker's capacity to create paintings of European cities that are both remarkably realistic and compositionally idealistic. Depicting Dresden, Vienna, Turin, and Warsaw, the paintings demonstrate an elaborate attention to architectural and natural detail and a sophisticated understanding of the specific quality of light in each place. By juxtaposing the paintings with Bellotto's preparatory sketches, the book also sheds light on his complicated process, which is thought to have included the use of the popular optical aid of that time, the camera obscura. Rounding out the book is a contemporary artistic reevaluation of the paintings through the medium of photography. Bringing together many well-known works by the Venetian vedute with a trove of paintings rarely seen, including a series of highly idealized architectural depictions, the book illustrates his critical contribution to this important European tradition.

Bernardo Bellotto and the Capitals of Europe
Author: Bernardo Bellotto
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300091818
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Bernardo Bellotto is considered to be one of the greatest topographical and landscape painters of the eighteenth century. Trained as a painter of cityscapes, he produced vivid and memorable images of many of the greatest cities of Europe, including Venice, Florence, Rome, Dresden, Munich, Vienna, and Warsaw. He also ventured successfully into genre, portraiture, allegory, and history painting. This beautiful book, written by leading specialists on Bellotto, examines his career and artistic development, places his work in the context of the political needs of central European monarchs, and presents a selection of his major paintings from each of his principal periods and genres. Bellotto began as a painter of conventional views of Venice in the manner of his more famous uncle, Canaletto. However, his quest for new subject matter led him to visit half a dozen cities in northern and central Italy in the early 1740s, and at twenty-five he left Italy for northern Europe, where he spent the rest of his life working for royal and aristocratic patrons. In Dresden he was engaged in the service of Augustus III, where he created many glorious canvases and was awarded the title of Court Painter. He then moved to Vienna and recorded its attractions for Empress Maria Theresa. He ended his career as Court Painter in Warsaw, and his detailed paintings of the city played an important role in its reconstruction after the Second World War. The book demonstrates that in each of the places Bellotto lived, he was able to capture the particular light and life with sensitivity and imagination.
