Softcover. Condition: As New. No Jacket. First Edition. "Leonardo da Vinci and the Art of Sculpture" offers a fresh perspective on the renowned Renaissance polymath through the lens of his engagement with sculpture. This stiff softcover First Edition thus, in impeccable As New condition, invites readers to explore Leonardo's lesser-known yet significant contributions to the world of sculpture.Published on November 24, 2009, this volume is a testament to Leonardo's multifaceted genius, shedding light on his work as a painter, designer, draftsman, architect, engineer, scientist, and theorist. While his prowess in these fields is widely acknowledged, his involvement in sculpture is often overlooked. This book seeks to challenge such assumptions by examining Leonardo's sculptural projects, influences, and the works of art he inspired.Despite prevailing notions that Leonardo viewed sculpture as inferior to painting, the book reveals his deep engagement with this art form. Drawing inspiration from ancient sculptures and admiring the innovations of contemporary sculptors like Donatello, Leonardo's sculptural endeavors were far-reaching. Notably, he trained under Andrea del Verrocchio, a prominent bronze sculptor of late 15th-century Florence.One of the book's highlights is Leonardo's ambitious undertakings: two larger-than-life-sized horse sculptures intended as monuments to Francesco Sforza, the Duke of Milan, and his successor Gian Giacomo Trivulzio. While neither project was completed, they provide insight into Leonardo's design challenges and his intense study of equine anatomy and movement.Additionally, the book features new images of "John the Baptist Preaching to a Levite and a Pharisee," a recently restored work in the Florentine Baptistery. Through this piece, co-authored by Leonardo and Giovanni Rustici, readers gain insight into Leonardo's collaborative approach and his influence on his contemporaries.Your copy of "Leonardo da Vinci and the Art of Sculpture" will be meticulously packaged for shipment, ensuring its protection from the elements.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. From its founding in 1648, the Academie royale de peinture et de sculpture and its successor, the Ecole nationale superieure des beaux-arts in Paris, were devoted to the Greek model. Mythology and poetry, along with the study of sculpture, were the foundations of academic teaching there. As a result, Greek gods and heroes were reborn in innumerable works by pupils and teachers of the Ecole. This lavishly illustrated book explores the impact of the poet Homer on four centuries of French artists through the lens of the Ecole's superb collections of paintings, prints, and sculptures.The Ecole was the most important venue for academic training of artists in Europe as well as for many nineteenth-century American artists who studied in Paris, including Thomas Eakins and John Singer Sargent. The Ecole's collections--which feature works by great artists who were first students and later instructors (Francois LeMoine, Jacques-Louis David, and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres)--were intended to enhance students' taste through study and emulation.With illuminating texts by prominent French scholars and a preface by George Steiner on the reception of Homer in France, 'The Legacy of Homer 'examines the historic and artistic importance of the works housed in the Ecole and pays homage to Homer, the great source that inspired them.

Brossura. Condition: new. Edited by Federica Carta, Camille Ambrosino and Philippe Sénéchal.English and French Text.Roma, 2024; paperback, pp. 176, b/w and col. ill., cm 16x24. Cet ouvrage s'intéresse aux sculptures du Moyen Âge et de la Renaissance réalisées avec l'emploi conjoint de plusieurs matériaux et techniques, offrant ainsi l'opportunité de croiser les champs de recherche sur la matérialité. Le livre entend offrir de nouvelles perspectives sur la polychromie, ses modalités d'application et ses effets attendus sur le spectateur. L'usage extensif par les historiens de l'art de photographies en noir en blanc, une exaltation idéologique de la blancheur et, fréquemment, le mauvais état de conservation des oeuvres ont durablement biaisé notre perception de ces sculptures. Des restaurations, des enquêtes d'archives et des campagnes photographiques permettent une approche nouvelle, qui ne se limite pas à l'analyse technique mais prend en compte les aspects liturgiques, théologiques et anthropologiques. L'enquête aborde des oeuvres insignes réalisées dans la France méridionale, en Italie centrale, dans le royaume de Naples, en Espagne et au Portugal, et ce sur la longue durée, du XIIIe au début du XVIIIe siècle. À côté des sculptures réalisées dans des matériaux souvent précieux par des maîtres célèbres tels que Nicola et Giovanni Pisano, Tino di Camaino ou Luca della Robbia sont examinés des objets de dévotion ou de procession plus modestes, issus d'ateliers moins prestigieux, mais témoignant d'une inventivité et d'une efficacité stupéfiantes.

Hardback. Condition: New. 1st ed. 1997. Corr. 2nd printing 1999. Filling an important gap in the literature, this comprehensive text develops conformal field theory from first principles. The treatment is self-contained, pedagogical, and exhaustive, and includes a great deal of background material on quantum field theory, statistical mechanics, Lie algebras and affine Lie algebras. The many exercises, with a wide spectrum of difficulty and subjects, complement and in many cases extend the text. The text is thus not only an excellent tool for classroom teaching but also for individual study. Intended primarily for graduate students and researchers in theoretical high-energy physics, mathematical physics, condensed matter theory, statistical physics, the book will also be of interest in other areas of theoretical physics and mathematics. It will prepare the reader for original research in this very active field of theoretical and mathematical physics.…
