In November 1910, Count Lev Tolstoy died at a remote Russian railway station attended by the world's media. He was eighty-two years old and had lived a remarkable and long life during one of the most turbulent periods of Russian history. Born into a privileged aristocratic family, he seemed set to join the ranks of degenerate Russian noblemen, but fighting in the Crimean war alongside rank and file soldiers opened his eyes to Russia's social problems and he threw himself into teaching the peasantry to read and write. After his marriage he wrote War and Peace and Anna Karenina, both regarded as two of the greatest novels in world literature. Rosamund Bartlett's exceptional biography of this brilliant, maddening and contrary man draws on key Russian sources, including the many fascinating new materials which have been published about Tolstoy and his legacy since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Tiziano Vecellio aus Pieve di Cadore (1488/90-1576) gilt als einer der bedeutendsten venezianischen Renaissancemaler. In diesem Buch analysiert die Autorin ausgewählte Werke des Künstlers unter den Aspekten Materialität und Verflüchtigung mit besonderem Augenmerk auf den Farbauftrag und den malerischen Prozess. Ausgehend von Tizians Umgang mit Licht und Farbe werden hier Erklärungsansätze für eine diaphane Bildwirkung vorgestellt.Die Lichtbeschreibung in Dante Alighieris Commedia (1321 vollendet), einem viel rezipierten Werk in der Renaissance, wird hier als Lesehilfe zum besseren Verständnis der Gemälde Tizians herangezogen: Sowohl der Poet als auch der Maler modellierten ihre Figuren im Licht.Diese Monographie ist Teil der Publikationsreihe, welche die Autorin den venezianischen Renaissancemalern Il Pordenone (1999), Lorenzo Lotto (2005), Giorgione (2011) und Sebastiano del Piombo (2016) widmet.
