The Drawings of Stefano Da Verona and His Circle and the Origins of Collecting in Italy
Author: Evelyn Karet
Publisher: American Philosophical Society
ISBN: 9780871692443
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
In this comprehensive catalogue of the work of the 15th-century painter and draftsman, Stefano da Verona (1375-ca. 1438), Karet reviews past scholarship and corrects old misunderstandings that produced an inconsistent, heterogeneous and misinformed corpus. Her attributions are based on stylistic arguments, technical analysis, and the relationship of the drawings to a limited number of secure paintings by this important Late Gothic North Italian painter. The restricted but sound body of works Stefano da Verona executed is compiled in rich catalogue entries that include discussions of style, iconography, patronage, paper and sketchbook analysis, important issues of workshop production and of the history of drawings and collectionism.

The Oxford Handbook of History and Material Culture
Author: Ivan Gaskell
Publisher:
ISBN: 0199341761
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 679
Book Description
Most historians rely principally on written sources. Yet there are other traces of the past available to historians: the material things that people have chosen, made, and used. This book examines how material culture can enhance historians' understanding of the past, both worldwide and across time. Deploying material culture to discover the pasts of constituencies who have left few traces in written record, the authors present familiar historical problems in new ways. This volume offers case studies arranged thematically in six sections that address the relationship of history and material culture to cognition, technology, the symbolic, social distinction, and memory.

ISBN: 135192155X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
A helpful and informative guide for librarians responsible for local studies collections covering the key issues in the twenty-first century.

Introductory and concluding chapters consider the local collection within its library context, the wider cultural, social, political and economic setting, the international local studies perspective and the future for this specialism in the UK.
