Botticelli
Author: Silvia Malaguzzi
Publisher: Giunti Editore
ISBN: 9788809036772
Category : Art
Languages : it
Pages : 132
Book Description
Sullo scenario di una Firenze mercantile e umanista, raffinata e ricca, dominata dalla personalità di Lorenzo il Magnifico si profila la vicenda artistica di Botticelli (1445 - 1510), che in questo contesto crea composizioni religiose e allegorie mitologiche, rebus figurativi e profane icone del Rinascimento. L'esordio da orafo e l'apprendistato presso Filippo Lippi rappresentano le prime tappe del suo percorso, determinanti per la comprensione del suo più maturo linguaggio pittorico. Le fattezze dei personaggi rievocano l'atmosfera della corte medicea, mentre le immagini sacre rispondono alle esigenze di una devozione privata e colta e, negli ultimi capolavori, le crescenti inquietudini religiose postsavonaroliane.

Botticelli
Author: Ana Debenedetti
Publisher: Reaktion Books
ISBN: 9781789149289
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A revealing look at the commercial strategy and diverse output of this canonical Renaissance artist. In this vivid account, Ana Debenedetti reexamines the life and work of Renaissance artist Sandro Botticelli through a novel lens: his business acumen. Focusing on the organization of Botticelli’s workshop and the commercial strategies he devised to make his way in Florence’s very competitive art market, Debenedetti looks with fresh eyes at the remarkable career and output of this pivotal artist within the wider context of Florentine society and culture. Uniquely, Debenedetti evaluates Botticelli’s celebrated works, like The Birth of Venus, alongside less familiar forms such as tapestry and embroidery, showing the breadth of the artist’s oeuvre and his talent as a designer across media.
