TASCHEN Icons Series: 15th Century Paintings

Hodnotenie knihy

Viac o knihe

The majority of paintings from the 15th century portray figures from the Bible and the world of mythology, but they also tell us much about the era in which they arose - about the conflicts between ruling forces, about the hopes of the poor, about everyday life, and about the meaning and symbolism that were attached to the past. The masterpieces selected for this volume are intended not to teach art history, but to focus our attention in each case on a specific image. The authors discuss what we are seeing and provide background information that makes the pictures more accessible. They see each painting not just as a work of art, but also as a document of its day.
