Описание: This is the only western study of the renowned Russian landscape painter, Isaak Levitan (1860-1900). This third, expanded edition is further enhanced by new images and extra chapters about his portraits, still lifes and cityscapes; it also discusses his working methods and assesses the influence of his output on later artists.
Born into a poor Jewish family in Lithuania, Levitan was able to enrol at the Moscow School of Painting aged only thirteen. He made rapid progress, the great merchant collector Pavel Tretyakov buying one of his early paintings. In 1886 he sketched in the Crimea and from 1887 spent several summers painting in the Volga region.
Levitan's paintings commemorate the arrival of the Russian spring and celebrate the quiet beauty of her lakes and rivers, fields and forests, often pictured at twilight. In doing this he sought simple, well-loved motifs of the countryside, using an increasingly refined and laconic technique. His work was greatly admired by Diaghilev of the Ballets Russes, who recalled Levitan's landscapes long after he had left Russia, and by Levitan's lifelong friend, Anton Chekhov who spoke of its 'astonishing simplicity and clarity'. Levitan's later compositions have a mystical quality achieved by few other artists.
Before illness claimed him at the age of 39, Levitan was able to make brief journeys to Berlin, Paris, the Alps, north Italy, Munich and Vienna. His awareness of painterly developments in Europe was to some extent reflected in his own art. Towards the end of his life he was responsible for revitalising the teaching of landscape painting in Moscow and exhibited regularly with the Munich Secession.
Описание: In the twelve years since Polhemus Savery DaSilva Architects Builders was formed, the firm has created a significant body of wooden buildings that are rooted
in the seaside vernacular of the fabled region of Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. As a design/build firm led by architects, Polhemus Savery DaSilva Architects Builders is
able to reach a level of aesthetic control not normally associated with light construction today. Each project is approached as an individual work of art and craft specifically associated
with its site and client.The eclectic, evolutionary use of architectural history infuses the firm's designs with fresh interpretations of architectural tradition, subtle playfulness, and
wit.
The compositional and planning strategies ground the work in the vernacular tradition that evolved into the shingle style; the 'architecture of the American summer' to use
the words of historian Vincent Scully. The experience of the firm's principal designers, John and Sharon DaSilva, includes several years at Venturi Rauch and Scott Brown and Cesar
Pelli and Associates. The book features over twenty houses and a handful of small institutional buildings in photographs by some of the world's best architectural photographers and
drawings by the firm.
It includes essay by noted architecture writer Michael J. Crosbie.

Описание: Walker Evans` work was spread over forty-six fitful and prolific years, yet in a scant two years, 1935 and 1936, he produced a singular body of work that defined his career. In the process he refined a hybrid style which combined documentation with sly personal comment. This volume presents those seminal images for the first time as a comprehensive body and in chronological order.

Автор: Shapiro Название: Lyrics of the French Renaissance ISBN: 0300087950 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780300087956 Издательство: Yale University Press Цена: 5053 р. Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ.
Описание: In this collection of rhymed, metrical translations of selected poems by three of France's and Western literature's most gifted poets, Norman R. Shapiro presents
English versions of works by Clement Marot (1496-1544), considered by some to be the last of the mediaeval poets; Joachim Du Bellay (1525-1560); and Pierre de Ronsard
(1524-1585). The original French poems - more than 150 in all - and their English translations appear on facing pages.
Some of the poems are very well known, while others
are not so. In these translations of the poetry of the three French Renaissance poets, Shapiro seeks to maintain the rhyme and metre of the original works. He aims to adhere to the
message of each poem yet avoid a slavishly literal translation.
Hope Glidden's introduction, along with notes that she and Shapiro provide on the specific poems, should
enhance the reader's appreciation and illuminate historical and linguistic issues relating to these lyric poems.
