Grand Design

  • Categories: Art

Pieter Coecke van Aelst (1502 – 1550) was renowned throughout Renaissance Europe as a draftsman, painter, and publisher of architectural treatises. The magnificent tapestries he designed were acquired by the wealthiest clients of the day, up to and including rulers such as Emperor Charles V, King Francis I of France, King Henry VIII of England, and Grand Duke Cosimo I de’ Medici of Tuscany. At the same time, Coecke was remarkable not only for the complexity and unparalleled quality of his tapestries, but also for his fluency in various media: this lavishly illustrated volume examines the full range of his work, from tapestry and stained-glass window designs to panel paintings, prints, dr...

Der Maler und Lithograph Georg Osterwald

  • Categories: Art

Georg Osterwald wurde 1803 in Rinteln geboren und studierte in Bonn und München. 1841 übersiedelte er, nach zwischenzeitlichem Aufenthalt in Paris, nach Köln. Dort war es der wiederaufgenommene Bau des Domes sowie das geistige kulturelle Klima, die lohnende Aufträge versprachen. In der Rheinmetropole fand er bis zu seinem Tod den Mittelpunkt seines Schaffens und wurde einer der wichtigsten Bildchronisten der Stadt und des Rheinlandes in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. In dieser Zeit unternahm Osterwald auch die für den deutschen Romantiker unausbleibliche Bildungsreise nach Italien. Bis in das hohe Alter tätig und zeitlebens der romantischen Malerei verpflichtet, starb Georg Osterwald am 1. Juli 1884 in Köln. Der Band stellt die erste umfassende monografische Untersuchung seines Werkes dar.

Late Gothic

  • Categories: Art

Kaum eine Epoche der Kunst ist von so durchgreifenden Veränderungen geprägt wie die Spätgotik im 15. Jahrhundert. Angeregt durch niederländische Vorbilder werden Licht und Schatten, Körper und Raum zunehmend wirklichkeitsnah dargestellt. Der Alltag hält Einzug in die Künste. Mit der Erfindung der Drucktechnik kommt es zu einer ungeahnten Verbreitung von Bildern und Texten. Künstler wie Nicolaus Gerhaert oder Martin Schongauer erlangen überregionale Berühmtheit und nehmen über alle Gattungen hinweg Einfluss auf die Entwicklung der Bildkünste in ganz Europa. Die Gegenüberstellung der unterschiedlichen Gattungen macht den Katalog zu einem Handbuch der Kunst am Übergang zur Neuzeit.

Renaissance de L'enluminure Médiévale

KADOC Artes 8The art of illumination, usually associated with the Middle Ages, experienced a spectacular revival in nineteenth-century Western Europe. This completely different context gave the illuminations another import. The output of the lay and religious workshops reveals a great artistic, stylistic, technical, and thematic diversity. The works illuminated go far beyond the world of exceptional and precious manuscripts and include many occasional documents and devotional images.Richly illustrated with unpublished masterworks, The Revival of Medieval Illumination is an overview of the form by fifteen authors who do not limit their approach to the traditional questions of art history. Rather, they explore the historical, sociocultural, ideological and religious components of the revival, which changed according to time and country, in order to understand the evolution and success of the art of illumination in the long nineteenth century.
