Inspiring Walt Disney: The Animation of French Decorative Arts
Author: Wolf Burchard
Publisher: Metropolitan Museum of Art
ISBN: 1588397416
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
Pink castles, talking sofas, and objects coming to life: what may sound like the fantasies of Hollywood dream-maker Walt Disney were in fact the figments of the colorful salons of Rococo Paris. Exploring the novel use of French motifs in Disney films and theme parks, this publication features forty works of eighteenth-century European design—from tapestries and furniture to Boulle clocks and Sèvres porcelain—alongside 150 Disney film stills, drawings, and other works on paper. The text connects these art forms through a shared dedication to craftsmanship and highlights references to European art in Disney films, including nods to Gothic Revival architecture in Cinderella (1950);bejeweled, medieval manuscripts in Sleeping Beauty (1959); and Rococo-inspired furnishings and objects brought to life in Beauty and the Beast (1991). Bridging fact and fantasy, this book draws remarkable new parallels between Disney’s magical creations and their artistic inspirations.

Pages : 60
Book Description
- Digitally restored illustrations- Translated captions- AnnotatedVincent Van Gogh often depicted flowering fields, gardens and floral arrangements through the skilled prism of his own unique vision, from the tulips of his native Holland to the sunflowers, irises and lavender fields of Southern France where he spent his last years. In particular, the years 1887 and 1890 were peak years for his flower paintings. Vincent Van Gogh's short art career provided the world with unparalleled paintings from a troubled genius. It was to be an age of post-Impressionistic color, form and wonderment that the art world discovered only after the master's death. Bouts of anxiety, mental illness and epilepsy may have tormented him and brought about his suicide at the age of 37. But they may also have been catalysts for an emotionality and vibrance in his art that reveals a turbulent search for grace.This volume displays 50 of Van Gogh's finest flower art pieces in a digitally restored state: their eye-popping brilliance and vitality are just as on the day Vincent Van Gogh finished them. Unless otherwise noted, they were originally oil paintings on canvas or wood. The arrangement is chronological within each category.Images include: FLOWERS GROWINGTulip Fields, 1883Garden with Sunflower & Female Figure, 1887Shed in Montmartre with Sunflower, 1887Lavender Field of Saintes-Maries, 1888Flowering Garden with Path, 1888Flower Garden, 1888Garden Behind House (Noon Hour), 1888Memory of the Garden at Etten, 1888Iris, 1889Irises (Sword Lilies), 1889Lilac Bush, 1889Poppies & Butterflies, 1890Rose Bush, 1890Marguerite Gachet in Her Garden, 1890Poppy Field, 1890Garden of Daubigny I, 1890Child with an Orange among the Flowers, 1890Young Girl in Wheat Field with Poppies, 1890Garden at Auvers, 1890Garden of Daubigny II, 1890FLOWER ARRANGEMENTSLunaria, 1884Forget-Me-Not and Peonies, 1886Vase with Asters and Phlox, 1886Vase with Sunflowers, Roses & Other Flowers, 1886Vase with Red Poppies, 1886Vase with Zinnias, 1886Geraniums in a Flower Pot, 1886Carnations in a Vase, 1886Cornflowers, Poppies, Peonies & Chrysanthemums, 1886Vase with Red & White Carnations on a Yellow Background, 1886Crown Imperials in a Copper Vase, 1887Vase with Daisies and Anemones, 1887Lilacs, Daisies & Anemones in a Vase, 1887Lilacs with an Orange Background, 1887Two Cut Sunflowers, 1887Four Withered Sunflowers, 1887Fourteen Sunflowers in a Vase, 1888Twelve Sunflowers in a Vase, 1888Three Sunflowers in a Vase, 1888Vase with Oleanders next to Zola's "Joie de Vivre" Novel, 1888Twelve Sunflowers in a Vase, 1889Fourteen Sunflowers in a Vase, 1889Vase with Irises, 1890Irises on a Yellow Background, 1890Vase with Roses, 1890Wildflowers and Thistles in a Vase, 1890Vase with Greater Musk Mallows, 1890Cornflowers & Poppies in a Vase, 1890Japanese Vase with Roses & Anemones, 1890Vase with Flowers & Thistles, 1890

Van Gogh and the Seasons
Author: Sjraar van Heugten
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691179719
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
A new look at the ways van Gogh represented the seasons and the natural world throughout his career The changing seasons captivated Vincent van Gogh (1853–90), who saw in their unending cycle the majesty of nature and the existence of a higher force. Van Gogh and the Seasons is the first book to explore this central aspect of van Gogh's life and work. Van Gogh often linked the seasons to rural life and labor as men and women worked the land throughout the year. From his depictions of peasants and sowers to winter gardens, riverbanks, orchards, and harvests, he painted scenes that richly evoke the sensory pleasures and deprivations particular to each season. This stunning book brings to life the locales that defined his tumultuous career, from Arles, where he experienced his most crucial period of creativity, to Auvers-sur-Oise, where he committed suicide. It looks at van Gogh's interpretation of nature, the religious implications of the seasons in his time, and how his art was perceived against the backdrop of various symbolist factions, antimaterialist debates, and esoteric beliefs in fin de siècle Paris. The book also features revealing extracts from the artist's correspondence and artworks from his own collection that provide essential context to the themes in his work. Breathtakingly illustrated and featuring informative essays by Sjraar van Heugten, Joan Greer, and Ted Gott, Van Gogh and the Seasons shines new light on the extraordinary creative vision of one of the world's most beloved artists.
