History of Art spiffiness, part 2
(and why am I doing this? cause the book goes back to the library tomorrow. Need record of wonderful spiffiness. After all, brain is far from photographic)
and now, on to the LJ-cut!
(and star trek voyager is talking about dead people. woo.)
These will mostly be artists now, not really works of art
Early Renaissance in Italy
Sculpture
- Donatello (St. George, Zuccone, David, Mary Magdalen)
- Ghiberti (Gates of Paradise)
- Andrea del Verrocchio (Doubting of Thomas, where the sculpture is actually stepping into the niche)
Architecture
- Brunelleschi (PERSPECTIVE, S.Lorenzo, Pazzi Chapel)
- Leone Battista Alberti (S. Andrea)
-Giuliano da Sangallo (Sta. Maria delle Carceri, with a "Dome of heavens" that has cute little round windows)
Paintings
- Masaccio (Holy Trinity with Virgin & St. John, Expulsion from Paradise
- Domenico Veneziano (Madonna and Child with Saints)
- Botticelli (Birth of Venus, but don't like Primavera)
- Giovanni Billini (St. Francis in Ecstasy, Madonna and Saints)
High Renaissance in Italy
- Da Vinci (Adoration of Magi, Last Supper
- Bramante (Tempietto, cute round buliding)
- Michelangelo (duh. esp. his sculptures and architecture. Also have grudging appreciation for Sistine Chapel)
- Titian (Madonna with Members of the Pesaro Family, Man with the Glove... much cooler than Raphael imo, although Raph is pretty decent, too. Just ... too clean, no find emotions)
Mannerism and Other Trends
- Parmigianino (he draws elongated people, yes he does. Madonna with the Long Neck. His self portrait makes him look like a sissy)
- Sofonisba Anguissola (woman! Portrait of the Artist's Sister Minerva)
- Jacopo Tintoretto (The Last Supper. the smoke from the lamp turns into angels. How cool is that?
- El Greco (The Burial of Count Orgaz, with its integration with the actual tomb, and Fray Felix Hortensio Paravicino)
- Correggio (Jupiter and Io. Just 'cause.)
- Andrea Palladio (Villa Rotonda. Hey, when you create an architecture style referred to as "palladian", you gotta be pretty decent)
"Late Gothic" Painting, Sculpture, and the Graphic Arts
- Jan van Eyck (Ghent Altarpiece, Arnolfini Portrait, Man in Red Turban)
- Rogier van der Weyen (Francescp d'Este, Miraflores Altarpiece)
- Jean Fouquet (Melun Diptych)
Renaissance in the North
- Mattias Grunewald (Isenheim Altarpiece. Christ is glowing! weee!)
- Albrecht Durer (Self-Portrait, Italian Mountains, Melencolia, Four Apostles)
- Hans Holbein the Younger (Erasmus of Rotterdam)
- Jan Gossaert (Danae, and the comparison to Virgin...)
- Joachim Patinir (Landscape with St. Jerome Removing the Thorn from the Lion's Paw)
- Pieter Bruegel the Elder (Return of the Hunters, Peasant Wedding, Blind Leading the Blind)
Baroque in Italy and Spain
- Caravaggio
- Artemisia Gentileschi (Judith and Maidservant with teh Head of Holofernes)
- Annibale Carracci (Palazzo Farnese Ceiling.... It's the more elaborate Sistine! with fake paintings and fake sculptures!)
- Guido Reni (Aurora, the "classicist" kind)
- Guercino (Aurora, the "expressive" kind... and I like both of them.)
- Diego Velazquez (and that's z with a lithp! Maid of Honor, Water Carrier of Seville, Pope Innocent X)
- Francisco de Zurbaran (St. Serapion. The dead guy in a ship thing.)
Architecture:
- Francesco Borromini (S. Carlo alle Quattro Fontane, weeee! curves!)
- Guarino Guarini (Chapel of the Holy Shroud, with the funky perspective dome... whoa...)
Sculpture:
- Gianlorenzo Bernini (David, Apollo and Daphne)
- Alessandro Algardi (The Meeting of Pope Leo I and Attila. It's the sculptural painting! awesomeness)
Baroque in Flanders and Holland (they really need to stop drawing butcher shops as still-lifes. ewww)
- Peter Paul Rubens (don't really like him all that much, but he's a biggie, so there)
- Anthony van Dyck (fantasy! Rinaldo and Armida, Portrait of Charles I Hunting)
- Frans Hals (snapshot paintings that take hours! The Jolly Toper, Malle Babbe)
- Rembrandt (whom I used to get mixed up with Renoir. go figure. The Return of the Prodigal Son)
- Willem Claesz. Heda (weird name. Still Life, 1634. a "real" still life!)
- Jan Steen (The Feast of St. Nicholas. Christmas morning, anyone?)
- Jan Vermeer (The Letter, Woman Holding a Balance. always an aura of mystery, like we missed something that just happened)
Baroque in France and England
- Georges de La Tour (Joseph the Carpenter. eee! it's kid Jesus!)
- Nicolas Poussin (he's important, but I don't like his art. enough said)
- The Le Nain brothers, who worked together on art. (Peasant Family)
- Claude Perrault (East front for Louvre)
Rococo
- Jean-Antoine Watteau (Pilgrimage to Cythera, Gilles and Four Other Characters. The baker actor)
- Marie-Louise-Elisabeth Vigee-Lebrun (Duchese de Polignac. she's so cute)
- Thomas Gainsborough (Robert Andrews and His Wife. "I know this countryside. rarr. fear the rifle")
- Corrado Giaquinto (Justice and Peace)
- Canaletto (The Bucintoro at the Molo. after Chinese school, am a bit fond of Venetian waterways)
Rar, tired. Will do Modern world tomorrow. Although am contemplating staying up to fix my sleep time once and for all.
and now, on to the LJ-cut!
