Pages : 400
Book Description
The third volume includes a final group of preeminent, identified artists from the period of transition at the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 16th century. Artistic production at this time was still rooted in late medieval thought, yet more and more seized with new renaissance developments, and at a permanent state of ferment with constantly changing needs of society. The catalogue deals with correspondingly complex issues of interpretation through the works of Hieronymus Bosch, Albrecht Bouts, Gerard David, Colijn de Coter and Goossen van der Weyden. It comprises a technical, stylistic and iconographical investigation of seventeen paintings on the basis of a scientific research method, which has been fully established over the years. The authors have been able to adjust various attributions and interpretations. At the same time most valuable discoveries have been made with regard to the provenance of some work belonging to the Albrecht Bouts and Colijn de Coter Groups.

Colard Mansion
Author: Renaud Adam
Publisher: Exhibitions International
ISBN: 9789461614391
Category : Illumination of books and manuscripts
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
La 4e de couverture indique : "In the late Middle Ages, the time of Charles the Bold and Hans Memling, Bruges was a metropolis of books. One of the central figures in the international book trade was Colard Mansion (active from 1457 to 1484). Initially, in addition to being a valued translator, Mansion was primarily a highly sought-after copyist of luxury manuscripts, but when the art of printing made its entrée in Europe in 1455, he saw his chance and became one of the first in the Low Countries to specialise in the new medium of printed books. In no time, he became one of the most important book entrepreneurs in Bruges and environs. In this book, manuscripts, illuminated incunabula and rare prints bring Mansion's innovative book business back to life. Nearly fifty specialists from around the world offer unique insights into Mansion's life, many aspects of which are shrouded in mystery. Among other things they describe the gradual transition from manuscript to print, explain workshop practices and publishers' strategies, and provide contextual information about late-medieval printmaking and the creation of an impressive oeuvre of literary editions in the vernacular. Mansion developed a brand that remained solid for centuries. This book holds the key to understanding why."

The Flemish Primitives in Bruges
Author: Till-Holger Borchert
Publisher: Ludion Publishers
ISBN: 9789493039117
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
Five centuries ago, Bruges was home to the Flemish Primitives. At the time, Bruges was one of the most important cities in Europe: an international centre of trade and meeting place for foreign merchants. It is this medieval Bruges through which we are guided by Till-Holger Borchert, director of the Bruges Museums. The wealth of the city and its art-loving inhabitants attracted dozens of artists. The pioneers among the socalled Flemish Primitives - Jan van Eyck, Hans Memling, Dieric Bouts, Hugo van der Goes and Gerard David - developed a new style of painting over the course of the fifteenth century that would make its influence felt as far as southern Europe. Although many of their paintings now hang among the masterpieces of the world's most prominent museums, Bruges was nevertheless able to hold on to a number of dazzling specimens of its owns heritage. This book allows you to take that heritage home. It is the perfect introduction for those who would like to become better acquainted with the artistic Bruges of the fifteenth centyury, as well as a splendid souvenir for anyone who has admired the Flemish Primitives in the city's main museums.

Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
Bruges painting of the second half of the sixteenth century has long been something of a unknown quantity. The oeuvres of Lancelot Blondeel and Pieter Pourbus may be known but the work of their fellow-painters in Bruges has received scant attention. However, recent scholarly and scientific study of those forgotten masters has greatly advance our knowledge of them. Today, not only do we have a better insight into the work of Pourbus and Blondeel, we can also introduce you to their artistic descendants with the oeuvres of several generations of the Claeissens family and of Marcus Gerards. They were all renowned masters producing works of the utmost quality that secured their high status in the art market. This book provides a necessary update of Bruges art history and place many long-held assumptions in a new light.

Book Description
Dit geïllustreerde boek presenteert Ellen Harveys gloednieuwe installatie in het Groeningemuseum in Brugge. Ellen Harvey linkt de relatie van Brugge met het water en de zee aan de collectie van het museumdepot. Voor vijf wanden met een selectie van 17de- tot vroeg 20ste-eeuwse schilderijen uit de museumreserves brengt ze een spiegelwand aan waarin openingen zijn uitgewerkt. Die nodigen de bezoeker uit tot contact met deze zelden getoonde kunstwerken. Qua thematiek spiegelen de klassieke schilderijen (stads-, kanaal- en zeegezichten) aan de overkant met het nieuwe panorama dat Ellen Harvey schilderde op basis van satellietbeelden van Brugge. In zijn totaliteit van 21 bij bijna 3 meter geeft dat schilderij een beeld van Brugge tot en met de Brugse zeehaven en de zee. De in spiegelglas uitgewerkte waterwegen tonen het belang van rivieren en kanalen voor deze stad, ook en vooral in de huidige economische havencontext. Exhibition: Groeningemuseum, Brugge, Belgium (2.10.2014-1.2.2015).
