descriptif du fournisseur

The first book devoted to the history and theory of landscape drawing in
early modern Europe, this study traces the practice of drawing from nature
across three centuries, exploring how artists experienced, interpreted and
transformed the landscape - and arguing for these works as independent
achievements rather than mere preparatory studies.
Bringing together art history, theory and material culture, this richly
illustrated volume explores artists' engagement with the landscape and the
fascinating creative process of producing views, offering new perspectives on
how landscape forms and meanings were understood through drawing. Its
contributors - scholars and drawing specialists from universities, museums,
and private collections - examine diverse geographical and cultural contexts
through original case studies of artistic practice.
The essays range widely, from Italian to Northern European art, from close
material study to historiographic narratives. They include analyses of large
panoramas by Pozzoserrato and of small sketchbooks by Tuscan artists in the
16th and 17th centuries; studies of the techniques used by Rembrandt to depict
wetlands and of his landscape practice across different media; and explorations
of the exchange between Jean-Honoré Fragonard and Hubert Robert in their
rendering of organic textures and temporal effects. Further chapters consider
the practices of Federico Zuccari, Federico Barocci and Nicolas-Didier Boguet,
as well as artificial landscapes devised for 17th-century court performances for
Christine of Bourbon-France and the watercolours by British artists for early
19th-century design firms.
This volume seeks to foreground the autonomy of landscape drawing and
to challenge the traditional assumption that early modern drawings of nature
were conceived primarily in relation to painting. It will offer new tools to study
the materiality of works on paper as it relates to drawing practices, helping
readers reflect on the early modern experience and perception of landscape,
and on the way it has shaped the artistic canon of pictorial genres and the
representation of nature
