The object of this series of text-books is to provide concise teachable histories of art for class-room use in schools and colleges. The limited time given to the study of art in the average educational institution has not only dictated the condensed style of the volumes, but has limited their scope of matter to the general features of art history. Archaeological discussions on special subjects and aesthetic theories have been avoided. The main facts of history as settled by the best authorities are given. If the reader choose to enter into particulars the bibliography cited at the head of each chapter will be found helpful. Illustrations have been introduced as sight-help to the text, and, to avoid repetition, abbreviations have been used wherever practicable. The enumeration of the principal extant works of an artist, school, or period, and where they may be found, which follows each chapter, may be serviceable not only as a summary of individual or school achievement, but for reference by travelling students in Europe. This volume on painting, the first of the series, omits mention of such work in Arabic, Indian, Chinese, and Persian art as may come properly under the head of Ornament--a subject proposed for separate treatment hereafter. In treating of individual painters it has been thought best to give a short critical estimate of the man and his rank among the painters of his time rather than the detailed facts of his life. Students who wish accounts of the lives of the painters should use Vasari, Larousse, and the _Encyclopaedia Britannica_ in connection with this text-book. Acknowledgments are made to the respective publishers of Woltmann and Woermann's History of Painting, and the fine series of art histories by Perrot and Chipiez, for permission to reproduce some few illustrations from these publications.

The first important records of this art are met with in Egypt; but before the Egyptian civilization the men of the early ages probably used color in ornamentation and decoration, and they certainly scratched the outlines of men and animals upon bone and slate. Traces of this rude primitive work still remain to us on the pottery, weapons, and stone implements of the cave-dwellers. But while indicating the awakening of intelligence in early man, they can be reckoned with as art only in a slight archaeological way. They show inclination rather than accomplishment--a wish to ornament or to represent, with only a crude knowledge of how to go about it.

Their very particular kind of intensely colorful, expressive paint- ing, using a dense formal idiom that was moving toward abstraction, was based on a unique spiritual approach that opened up completely new possibilities for expression, ranging in style from a height- ened realism to abstraction.

Rearick Professor Art History Date Approved: April 9, 1985 ABSTRACT Title of thesis: Venetian Organ Shutters in the Renaissance Teh-yu Wang, Master of Arts, 1985 Thesis directed by: William R. Rearick, Professor, Art History Organ shutters, used in large organs for acoustical and aesthetic reasons, offer a two-fold interest to the art historian: iconography and style. Iconographically, many organ shutters in all periods displayed the Annunciation when closed. Images of the saints might be on the exterior or interior of the organ shutters; and the iconography evolved from simple devotional images of patron saints in ca. 1450, through narrative, historical images of patron saints in ca. 1520, to complicated combina­ tions of themes from the Old and the New Testament in the entire sixteenth century. Stylistically, orgn-shutter painters tried, from the very beginning, to break down the barrier between the pictorial plane of the organ shutters and the real space of the spectator; accordingly, two kinds of perspectival devices were used: the dal-sotto-in-su was usually used for the exterior, the eye­ level for the interior.

  • Les Acquisitions D'art Germanique Par Les Musées Du Louvre Et Du
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Flecker, Uwe ; Gaehtgens, Thomas W. (Hrsgg.): De Grünewald à Menzel : l'image de l'art allemand en France au XIXe siècle, Paris 2003, S. 247-266 (Passagen ; 6) Les acquisitions d ’art germanique par les musées du Louvre et du Luxembourg au XIXe siècle Mathilde Arnoux La diversijication des collections du musée du Louvre C’est durant la première moitié du XIXe siècle que le musée du Louvre achète le plus grand nombre de peintures germaniques. 1 Un Saint Jérôme de Georg Fencz y entre en 1817. En 1828, l’achat de la collection Révoil enrichit le Louvre de trois ceuvres : un Portrait de Maximilien I" d ’après Bernhard Strigel, et deux peintures allemandes sur papier du XVIe siècle représentant chacune un homme en habit d ’époque et considérées aujour- d ’hui comme des copies du XIXe siècle. En 1835, c’est Le Christ et la femme adultère de Christian-Wilhelm-Ernst Dietrich qui intègre le musée, puis l’on acquiert en 1837 une Tête de vieille femme au bonnet et au col de fourrure (ill. 76) de Balthasar Denner et, en 1852, une Tête defemme au voile du même artiste. Ces acquisitions se font au gré des propositions des pardculiers ; elles ne sont pas le fruit d ’inidadves de la part des conser- vateurs, dont la curiosité ne semble pas excitée par cette école de pein- ture étrangère. Ils ne cherchent pas à constituer de collecdon cohérente, comme pour la Galerie espagnole organisée à la suite d ’une mission menée en Espagne en 1836 et 1837 par le baron Taylor, Dauzats et Blanchard.
