Hardcover. Zustand: As New. 4to (28.5 cm), X, 140 pp, 4 plates in color, 104 in b&w. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket. "The first surviving illuminated manuscript of the French translation of Boccaccio's De mulieribus claris, known as the Cleres femmes (now in the Bibliotheque Nationale, Paris), is the subject of this book. The manuscript was commissioned by a Parisian merchant, Jacques Raponde, as a New Year's gift for the duke of Burgundy, Philip the Bold. This innovative aspect of the commission, where a merchant rather than a prince acted as the patron of the manuscript, provides the subject for the first part of Buettner's study. In addition to sketching the Valois rulers' practice of collecting illuminated manuscripts and to tracing the reasons for the successful reception of Boccaccio's work in this courtly milieu, the author delineates the role of merchants in Parisian artistic production around 1400."

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Medieval Art, Modern Politics is an innovative volume of twelve essays by international scholars, prefaced by a comprehensive introduction. It examines the political uses and misuses of medieval images, objects, and the built environment from the 16th to the 20th century. In case studies ranging from Russia to the US and from catacombs, mosques, cathedrals, and feudal castles to museums and textbooks, it demonstrates how the artistic and built legacy has been appropriated in post-medieval times to legitimize varied political agendas, whether royalist, imperial, fascist, or colonial. Entities as diverse as the Roman papacy, the Catholic Church, local arts organizations, private owners of medieval fortresses, or organizers of exhibitions and publishers are examined for the multiple ways they co-opt medieval works of art. Medieval Art, Modern Politics enlarges the history of revivalism and of medievalism by giving it a uniquely political twist, demonstrating the unavoidable (but often ignored) intersection of art history, knowledge, and power.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Opulent jeweled objects ranked among the most highly valued works of art in the European Middle Ages. At the same time, precious stones prompted sophisticated reflections on the power of nature and the experience of mineralized beings. Beyond a visual regime that put a premium on brilliant materiality, how can we account for the ubiquity of gems in medieval thought In The Mineral and the Visual, art historian Brigitte Buettner examines the social roles, cultural meanings, and active agency of precious stones in secular medieval art. Exploring the layered roles played by gems in aesthetic, ideological, intellectual, and economic practices, Buettner focuses on three significant categories of art: the jeweled crown, the pictorialized lapidary, and the illustrated travel account. The global gem trade brought coveted jewels from the Indies to goldsmiths' workshops in Paris, fashionable bodies in London, and the crowns of kings across Europe, and Buettner shows that Europe's literal and metaphorical enrichment was predicated on the importation of gems and ideas from Byzantium, the Islamic world, Persia, and India.Original, transhistorical, and cross-disciplinary, The Mineral and the Visual engages important methodological questions about the work of culture in its material dimension. It will be especially useful to scholars and students interested in medieval art history, material culture, and medieval history.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 208 Seiten, 201 Abb. Gebunden mit Schutzumschlag - Die reich bebilderte Publikation spannt einen Bogen über das gesamte Schaffen des Künstlers vom kubistisch geprägten frühen, bis zum heiteren, das große Format suchenden späten Werk. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt dabei auf der amerikanischen Dimension von Légers uvre: Mehrfach war der Künstler in den USA, zuletzt in den Jahren zwischen 1940 und 1945 im New Yorker Exil. Er war von diesem riesigen Land, seiner Architektur, Dynamik und Modernität beeindruckt und schuf dort in der Folge zentrale Werke. Darüber hinaus spürt der Band der bemerkenswerten Wirkung auf die amerikanische Kunst nach, vornehmlich auf Roy Lichtenstein und Ellsworth Kelly, aber auch auf weitere Künstler der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts wie Robert Rauschenberg, Al Held, Jasper Johns, James Rosenquist, Frank Stella und Andy Warhol.…
