DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Widely regarded as one of the greatest draughtsmen of all time, Annibale Carracci (1560-1609) is celebrated for his naturalism. Born in a time when the elegant deformations and exaggerations of Italian mannerism were still in vogue, Carracci turned instead to nature as his principal inspiration. Much attuned to the everyday world around him, he took as much interest in studying a man bowling, a butcher weighing a piece of meat, or a street entertainer with his monkey as he did in the preparatory studies for his grand mythological and religious paintings. The fruit of this intensive study is abundantly evident in his magnificent drawings of the human figure - from his early works in Bologna to those made in preparation for his greatest commission, the decoration of the Farnese Gallery in Rome. This stunning publication brings together a plethora of Carracci's masterful drawings to provide a unique insight into the technique and skill of one of the premier artists of his time.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The Getty Museum's collection of drawings was begun in 1981 with the purchase of a Rembrandt nude and has since become an important repository of European works from the fifteenth through the nineteenth century. As in the first volume devoted to the collection (published in 1988 in English and Italian editions), the text is here organized first by national school, then alphabetically by artist, with individual works arranged chronologically. For each drawing, the authors provide a discussion of the work's style, dating, iconography, and relationship to other works, as well as provenance and a complete bibliography.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Arranged chronologically, the five chapters present the image of the garden as it evolves from the Middle Ages through the nineteenth century. Early prints illustrate biblical garden scenes and medieval gardens of love, while Renaissance images portray secular gardens and typographical plans and views. The grand style of the garden design emerges in the baroque period, followed by a more natural style in the eighteenth century. In the nineteenth century, garden imagery changes as artists begin to depict small, private gardens and public parks rather than the great aristocratic estates.
