16th Century Paintings

16th Century Paintings Rose-Marie Hagen; Rainer Hagen; Karen Williams; Iain Galbraith; Whitley Chapel Additional Author mixed material bibliography Taschen 2001 191 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. 3822855588 C2O library Online catalog (BETA) 759.03 HAGE 3302 C2O library & collabtive (Art & Design) 16thCenturyPaintingsRose27823_f.jpg 3211 2015-01-02 09:50:52 2015-01-02 09:50:52 machine generated
