Jan Brueghel was a prominent painter in his hometown of Antwerp, a good friend and frequent collaborator of Rubens. What is perhaps less well known is that Jan was also an exceptional draughtsman. At the Snijders&Rockox House in Antwerp, some seventy works by Jan Brueghel are being brought together to create a unique exhibition. These drawings hail from collections held around the globe, including print rooms in Berlin, Paris, New York, Amsterdam, London and Stockholm, and this is the first time that they will all be on view together, presenting a significant cross-section of Jan Brueghel's authentic drawn oeuvre. To celebrate this exhibition, the publishing firm BAI, in collaboration with the Snijders&Rockox House, has published the catalogue Jan Brueghel the Elder - A Magnificent Draughtsman.The book includes a biography, essays by Dr.Ter z Gerszi and Dr Brueghel and his draughtsmanship and six chapters in which the drawings are discussed according to their theme: sojourning in Italy, riverside and village scenes, study-sheets, roads and travellers, views of the sea and ports and coastal scenes, and impressions while travelling. The authors also place Jan's draughtsmanship within the context of his complete works and the times in which he lived, in the process signalling relationships and making enlightening comparisons. Jan Brueghel de Oude was rond 1600 een van de meest prominente en succesvolle Vlaamse kunstenaars. Als een vernieuwende en creatieve denker moderniseerde Jan Brueghel de Oude de Nederlandse landschapsschilderkunst. Hij bouwde verder op het oeuvre van zijn vader Pieter Bruegel de Oude, in het bijzonder op het vlak van diens tekeningen, latere schilderwerk en drukwerk. De tentoonstelling is opgebouwd rond zes thema's die het werk van Jan Brueghel de Oude zo kenmerkend maakten. Herinneringen aan zijn studiereis in Itali , rivier-, bos- en dorpstaferelen maar ook maritieme scenes worden in een chronologische volgorde gepresenteerd. Al deze taferelen komen tot leven door het gebruik van levensechte en geanimeerde figuren die - hoewel niet de focus van zijn artistieke productie - duidelijk veel meer zijn dan louter verfraaiing. 0 g.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 206 pages : illustrations (chiefly colour) ; 29 cm. 'An English language study entirely dedicated to the works of the Flemish artists and brothers Matthijs and Paul Bril, who lived between the 16th and the 17th century, whose landscape art had a strong influence on painting in the following centuries. The book, generously illustrated, first retraces the life of the two artists and brothers, as well as their works of art, often an exemplary result of papal commissions. Frescoes realized in Rome, in the Vatican and in other Latium areas are accurately described and exposed, with a particular attention to their style, technique and represented subjects: biblical and historic episodes, but especially rural landscapes, of the sea and hunting scenes. Following, a meticulous examination of the drawings that preceded the creation of the paintings, is also proposed in order to highlight their intimism and the evolving messages that will be fully realized and expressed in their works of art. The study then focuses on the frescoes of Paul Bril present in the Loggia della Pergola at Palazzo Pallavicini Rospigliosi, analysing their genesis and implementation. Following, an extensive photographic apparatus displays the entire collection of the Brill brothers, starting with the locations where it is divided, finally showing all the works of art. The book closes with an extensive bibliography.'.
