During the first half of the 19th century, the open window emerged as a consistent motif in German, Danish, French, and Russian art. "Rooms with a View" is the first book to explore this intriguing theme in European art, with its Romantic intimations of unfulfilled longing and its associated qualities of poetry, luminosity, and interiority. Artists depicted this intangible mood with images of contemplative figures in hushed, sparely furnished rooms; painters diligently at work in their studios; simple, serene displays of light entering a chamber; and, windows as the focal point of views in their own right. "Rooms with a View" features forty oils and thirty works on paper by both well-known and largely undiscovered artists, including Caspar David Friedrich, Carl Gustav Carus, Georg Friedrich Kersting, Adolph Menzel, Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg, Martinus Rorbye, Jean Alaux, Leon Cogniet, and Fyodor Petrovich Tolstoy.

Paperback. Condición: Good. One of the richest motifs in the visual arts is the open window. Beginning with two sepia drawings by Caspar David Friedrich, images of windows â" with or without human figures, starkly bare or draped with billowing fabric â" filled up artistsâ sketchbooks and portfolios and resonated through the art academies and annual exhibitions of Germany Denmark, France, Russia, and the other northern countries. In contrast to examples from earlier centuries, such as the celebrated works of the Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer, the early-nineteenth-century pictures usually show the windows straight on, with views seen through them â" pastoral and alpine views, views of sea and sky or moon and clouds, and urban views of rooftops, steeples, shipyards, or the skyline of Rome, where so many northern artists went to complete their studies. Sabine Rewaldâs informative and perceptive texts set these works in the context of their creatorsâ lives and careers, apartments and studios, families and professional circles. Published on the occasion of the exhibition @ The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 03/23/11-07/04/11. Bibliography, Index. 115 illustrations, including 110 in full color. 204p.
