The purpose of this anthology is to unite the study of Western art history with the understanding of Western social and cultural history. Painting, sculpture, architecture, and other forms of the visual arts are, like literary documents, primary sources that reveal the thoughts and abilities of individuals and that record the fundamental concerns of their age and culture.

Original softcover. Condición: Gut. XXIV, 440 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Somewhat rubbed, slightly stained edge, otherwise good and clean. / Etwas berieben, leicht angeschmutzt, sonst gut und sauber. - This anthology of readings related to Western art history explains specific works of art illustrated in Janson's History of Art and De la Croix and Tansey's Gardner's Art Through the Ages in terms of the ideas, beliefs, and concerns of the people and cultures who created the works. It brings a new understanding of art because it shows the social and cultural basis of major works of art through history. The ten sections are: Italian Renaissance Art of the Early Fifteenth Century; Sixteenth-Century Italian Art; Fifteenth-Century Northern European Art; Sixteenth-Century Northern European Art; Baroque Art in Italy, France and England; Baroque Art in the Netherlands and Spain; Eighteenth-Century Art; Nineteenth-Century Art; Early Twentieth-Century Art; and Later Twentieth-Century Art. The readings have been drawn from many areas of social and intellectual history, including religion, philosophy, literature, science, economics and law. Each selection is preceded by an introductory note that discusses the reading's subject and theme, its source and usage, and its relevance to the study of the work of art. Notes, bibliography, index. - Linnea H. Wren is assistant professor of art at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota, and coeditor of the previous volume in this series, Perspectives on Western Art: Source Documents and Readings from the Ancient Near East through the Middle Ages.
