Описание: Depicting the Paris of his day, Edouard Manet (18321883) captured the nineteenth-century urban experience, legitimising modern life as an artistic subject. His detached, frank mode of looking and his subversive handling of both paint and subject-matter shocked his contemporaries, and eventually established his reputation as the father of modern painting. This remarkable book explores Manets portraiture, a significant yet often neglected aspect of his work, embracing examples from throughout his career. Leading authorities provide a thorough review of the artists stylistic evolution, considering the influence of seventeenth-century Dutch painters, parallels with the work of Renoir and links with early photography. Lavishly illustrated with paintings, works on paper, and photographs of models and sitters, this landmark study throws new light on the quintessential painter of modernity.

Описание: Diego Rodriguez de Silva y Velazquez (1599-1660), famous for his intriguing portraits of monarchs, courtiers and jesters, is considered one of the greatest painters of all time. Surrounded by canvases by Raphael, Titian, Tintoretto, Rubens and Van Dyck, Velazquez created a furore as painter at the cosmopolitan court of Philip IV during the Spanish Golden Age.But it was not just Madrid that lay at his feet. Velazquez was also admired and famous at the imperial court of Vienna and the papal court in Rome for his disciplined, intelligent play with space, light and colour, which gives his paintings an exceptional dignity. His work was rediscovered in the 19th century and was the stimulus for the development of modern painting, particularly Realism and Impressionism.The impassioned Velazquez expert Fernando Checa guides you in this beautiful, superbly illustrated reference work through the traditional interpretations that set the oeuvre of the master within the Realist school, and at the same time explores the more daring vision that links Velazquez with Classicism and the most progressive currents within the painting of his day.Checas unusual approach and the comprehensive survey of Velazquez paintings show why the work of this master was so important for the development of modern art, and why the painter is regarded as a gifted artist almost without parallel.

Описание: Manet, a founding father of modernism, is one of the towering figures of 19th-century art. In this volume, Carol Armstrong looks closely at Manet's works to
uncover a view not only of the artist but also of modernity itself. As she places his art within frameworks of colour, the feminine Other (the "Manette" in "Manet"), and consumerism,
Armstrong seeks to expand and revise our understanding of this artist as a painter of modern life.
Surveying most of Manet's diverse output, the text addresses along the way
his methods of self-presentation, his exhibition strategies, the relation of his etchings and paintings, the significance of his relationships with the model Victorine Meurent and the painter
Berthe Morisot, the painterly construction of identity and gender difference, and much more. At the same time, it considers contemporary writings by Baudelaire, Zola, the Goncourts, and
others who dealt with issues relating to artistic identity and modernity, painting, the model, and femininity. Armstrong concludes that Manet's work demonstrates consistent
preoccupations with defining and contradicting his own signature style of painting and with the gendering of costume, colour, and the making of his art.
These
preoccupations, she shows, suggest a new understanding of Manet's oeuvre.
