Description

1 lingua: inglese Legat. edit. in tela con sovrac. illustrata a col., cm 29x23, pag. XVII + 430, con numerosissime tavole e illustraz. a col. e illustraz. in b.n. - All the artists catalogued in this volume were active in Bergamo, Brescia and Cremona in the sixteenth century, cities characterised as much by the artistic interaction between them as by the influence of Venice. They include such well known names as Lorenzo Lotto, Moretto and Moroni, as well as less familiar ones such as Bartolomeo Veneto and Callisto Piazza. The comprehensive entry for each picture covers technique and materials, conservation and condition, subject and iconography. A brief but informative account of the original patronage of the painting is followed by a discussion of changing tastes, and of how the picture has been interpreted and esteemed (or neglected) during subsequent centuries. More than a third of the paintings catalogued here are portraits, and these entries include valuable sections on contemporary dress, furnishings and accessories. Detailed descriptions of frames and framing reflect the growing interest in this field among both curators and the general public.
