Description

Paolo Uccello was one of the foremost artists of the early Italian Renaissance, lengendary for his pioneering use of perspective, the humanist, intellectual themes of his work, his vivid and original imagery, and his wit. Yet, few major artists of the Renaissance have remained so elusive to modern scholars. This study looks beyond the romantic myth of the solitary artist created by Vasari in the sixteenth century, to document Uccello as an historical figure, to identify his works on the basis of archival evidence, style, and technique, rather than tradition, and to interpret his imagery in the light of the religious, social, political, and aesthetic concerns of the Florentine Republic in the fifteenth century. It also investigates the circumstances of his workshops, and describes the materials and technique that made him one of the most admired artists of his generation. Included are a comprehensive catalogue raisonn¿ of his works and a compilation of the documents concerning Uccello from his lifetime.
Paolo Uccello, Domenico Veniziano, Andrea Del Castagno (The Library of Great Masters)

Riverside Book Co

List Price: $12.99

Description

Paolo Uccello, Domenico Veneziano and Andrea del Castagno, "the first champions of the new order", lived in one of the richest and most complex centuries in the history of the Italian civilization. The Quattrocento was a period of extraordinary importance in the history of the civilization of Florence. Having survived the terrible Black Death of 1348, in the 15th century Florence experienced a new social and political reality that fostered rapid progress. The tangible evidence of the beginning of this new period of peace and economic prosperity was the growing number of works of art commissioned by public organizations. This book outlines some of the features that are common to these three artists making them representatives of the spirit and the art of the Renaissance. It observes the parallel development of their careers and helps us to understand the personality of each artist.
