16th Century Paintings Paperback - 2001 by Rose-Marie Hagen (Author), Rainer Hagen (Author), 192 PAGES

The present volume brings together some of the most important paintings of the 16th century. They offer insights into long-gone worlds, into the sphere of the rich and powerful and into the daily lives of peasants and craftsmen. They uncover the stories and myths that preoccupied them, and their religious and material desires. The authors discuss what we are seeing and provide background information that makes the pictures more accessible. They see each painting not just as a work of art, but also as a document of its day.Contents: The Sinner and the Eccentric Hieronymus Bosch: The Ship of Fools, between 1480 and 1516, Strange Quartet, Hans Baldung Grien: The Three Stages of Life, with Death, c. 1510, Composure in the face of misfortune, Raphael: The Fire in the Borgo, 1514-17, The femme fatale charms the devout viewer, Niklaus Manuel: The Execution of John the Baptist, c. 1517, The battle to end all Battles, albrecht Altdorfer: The Battle of Issues, 1529, Careers in the king`s service, Hans Holbein the Younger: The Ambassadors, 1533, From the canopy of Heaven to a four-poster bead, Titian: Venus of Urbino, c. 1538, The utopia of common huntmanship, Lucas Cranach the Younger, The Stag Hunt, 1544, The third voyeur stood before the canvas, Tintoretto: Susanna and the Elders, C. 1555, The Lord sits at the table of lords, Paolo Caliari (Veronese): The Marriage at Cana, 1562/63, The Antwerp building boom, Pieter Bruegel the Elder: The Tower of Babel, 1563, For Tiber, read Seine, Antoine Caron: The Massacre by the Triumvirate, 1566)
