Bertoldo Di Giovanni, Sculptor of the Medici Household
Author: James David Draper
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Small medals to a monumental palace frieze, all of which present an indelibly Tuscan brand of rustic classicism. Beginning with a survey of Bertoldo's career, James David Draper sheds new light on Medici patronage and on the efforts of Renaissance artists to formulate the period's humanist values in visual terms. He examines in depth the nature of the informally organized "academy" of young artists, including Michelangelo, who are believed to have gathered under.

Lorenzo De' Medici and the Art of Magnificence
Author: F. W. Kent
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 9780801886270
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
"Historian F.W. Kent offers a new look at Lorenzo's relationship to the arts, aesthetics, collecting, and building - especially in the context of his role as the political boss (maestro della bottega) of republican Florence and a leading player in Renaissance Italian diplomacy. Kent's approach reveals Lorenzo's activities as an art patron as far more extensive and creative than previously thought. Known as "the Magnificent," Lorenzo was broadly interested in the arts and supported efforts to beautify Florence and the many Medici lands and palaces. His expertise was well regarded by guildsmen and artists, who often turned to him for advice as well as for patronage.

Artistic Exchange and Cultural Translation in the Italian Renaissance City
Author: Stephen J. Campbell
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521826884
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
Considering the reception of the early modern culture of Florence, Rome, and Venice in other centers of the Italic peninsula, this book reexamines the Renaissance as a form of translation of a past culture. It assumes that the Renaissance attempted to assimilate the lost, or fragmentary, worlds of the Roman emperors, the Greek Platonists, and the ancient Egyptians. These essays, accordingly, explore how the processes of cultural self-definition varied between the Italian urban centers in the early modern period, well before the formation of a distinct Italian national identity.

Art and Violence in Early Renaissance Florence
Author: Scott Nethersole
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300233515
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
This study is the first to examine the relationship between art and violence in 15th-century Florence, exposing the underbelly of a period more often celebrated for enlightened and progressive ideas. Renaissance Florentines were constantly subjected to the sight of violence, whether in carefully staged rituals of execution or images of the suffering inflicted on Christ. There was nothing new in this culture of pain, unlike the aesthetic of violence that developed towards the end of the 15th century. It emerged in the work of artists such as Piero di Cosimo, Bertoldo di Giovanni, Antonio del Pollaiuolo, and the young Michelangelo. Inspired by the art of antiquity, they painted, engraved, and sculpted images of deadly battles, ultimately normalizing representations of brutal violence. Drawing on work in social and literary history, as well as art history, Scott Nethersole sheds light on the relationship between these Renaissance images, violence, and ideas of artistic invention and authorship.
