En la historia del arte, se tiende a llamar por su nombre de pila sólo a los maestros más reverenciados. El pintor y arquitecto renacentista Rafael Sanzio (1483-1520) es uno de ellos. El hombre que conocemos simplemente como Rafael ha sido encumbrado durante siglos como un artista renacentista sublime. Hay quien incluso le considera superior a sus coetáneos, igualmente famosos y conocidos también por su nombre de pila, Leonardo y Miguel Ángel.
Entre 1500 y 1508, Rafael trabajó por todo el centro de Italia, sobre todo en Florencia, donde afianzó su reputación como pintor de retratos y vírgenes de gran belleza, iconos arquetípicos relacionados con la fe católica. En 1508, el papa Julio II lo llamó a Roma, donde más tarde se embarcaría en una ambiciosa pintura mural para la Stanza della Segnatura del Vaticano. La escuela de Atenas, la obra de Rafael en el interior de esta sala, se considera un paradigma del Alto Renacimiento, una obra que funde la filosofía clásica con una perspectiva espacial perfecta, figuras animadas y una composición magistralmente equilibrada.
Esta introducción imprescindible analiza cómo en sólo dos décadas de carrera artística, Rafael alcanzó una grandeza de dimensiones legendarias. Con obras destacadas de su prolífica producción, este libro refleja el dominio de las figuras y las formas que le valieron un lugar destacado no sólo en la trinidad de las eminencias del Renacimiento junto a Miguel Ángel y Leonardo, sino también entre los artistas más valorados de todos los tiempos.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. In art history, we tend to be on first name terms only with the most revered of masters. The Renaissance painter and architect Raphael Santi (1483-1520) is one such star. The man we call simply Raphael has for centuries been hailed as a supreme Renaissance artist. For some, he even outstrips his equally famous, equally first-named, contemporaries, Leonardo and Michelangelo. From 1500 to 1508, Raphael worked throughout central Italy, particularly in Florence where he secured his reputation as a painter of portraits and beautifully rendered Madonnas, archetypical icons within the Catholic faith. In 1508 he was summoned to Rome by Pope Julius II and later embarked on an ambitious mural scheme for the Stanza della Segnatura in the Vatican. Within this room, Raphael's The School of Athens is considered a paradigm of the High Renaissance, merging Classical philosophy with perfected perspectival space, animated figures, and a composition of majestic balance. This essential introduction explores how in just two decades of work, Raphael painted his way to legendary greatness. With highlights from his prolific output, it presents the mastery of figures and forms that secured his place not only in the trinity of Renaissance luminaries but also among the most esteemed artists of all time. In just two decades of work, Raphael Santi painted his way to legendary greatness. This essential introduction to the artist we know simply as Raphael presents the mastery of figures, forms, and space that secured his place not only alongside Michelangelo and Leonardo in the trinity of Renaissance luminaries but also among the most esteemed artists of all time.

hardcover. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.
