Fifteenth - Century netherlandish painting
Hoy -5% en Libros

Pérez Preciado, José Juan

Nuevo volumen de la colección de catálogos razonados del Museo del Prado, tras El Greco, Pintura holandesa, Las miniaturas en el Museo del Prado y Luca Giordano. Este catálogo estudia las pinturas realizadas en los Países Bajos durante el siglo XV que custodia el Museo del Prado, incluyendo las de artistas activos en el XVI pero vinculados con el quehacer del siglo anterior. Se trata de un momento trascendente para la cultura artística occidental, que alumbra la obra de creadores revolucionarios, como Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden o el Maestro de Flémalle, la de los maestros que siguieron su estela, como Dirk Bouts, Hans Memling o Hugo van der Goes, y la de otros autores de menos fama pero de producción igualmente notable. La pintura flamenca temprana es célebre no solo por su delicadeza técnica e intensidad narrativa, sino por la dificultad que entraña interpretar los asuntos representados. Además, la ausencia de documentación cierta sobre sus creadores, de muchos de los cuales se ignora hasta su identidad, y la escasez de datos sobre las propias obras, hacen que su estudio sea uno de los más complejos pero también más atractivos de la historia del arte. Esta publicación actualiza el conocimiento de esas obras y sus autores en el Museo. Se catalogan creaciones individuales, trípticos completos o escenas fragmentarias de unos veinte artistas, de quienes se ofrece una sucinta biografía con sus obras seguras y clave para atribuir las que se examinan, sean estas autógrafas, de taller o de seguidores. A los datos y el análisis histórico y artístico de cada una se añade un exhaustivo estudio técnico, fundamental para precisar conclusiones, incluyendo la revisión de atribuciones tradicionales y la propuesta de la más certera autoría para pinturas que hasta hoy se tenían por anónimas. Su autor, José Juan Pérez Preciado, técnico del Museo en el Área de Pintura Flamenca y Escuelas del Norte, ha llevado a cabo este trabajo en colaboración con el Gabinete Técnico y Laboratorio del Museo y con la asesoría científica de Lorne Campbell, reconocido experto en la pintura de los Países Bajos, que escribe la introducción sobre el temprano interés que esas bellas creaciones despertaron en España.

Seward, Ingrid

The story of the real relationship between King Charles III and his mother, by the esteemed royal biographer, Ingrid Seward.The relationship between the late Monarch and her son, the King, has long been a subject of fascination. The upbringing of an heir is especially important and places an extra burden on top of all the cares of motherhood. The demands placed on the monarch are unique and there was no one better placed to know this than the late Queen. She knew that not only must they be figureheads, but they must be seen to care for others less fortunate than themselves. They are also expected to uphold family values. Princess Elizabeth made it a point of maternal honour to try and build her routine around her young son while doing her duty. When she became Queen, it was a more delicate balance, but one which she eventually learnt to sustain.Unlike his self-contained mother, who always put duty above personal happiness, King Charles needed love and support to function properly. This is the story of how Charles was shaped and moulded by his heritage. His mother was the woman he always loved but could never be close to. As Queen she held the Pandora’s box of the crown and all he could do was wait and learn. In his mother’s old age, he finally received the affection and respect from her he had craved for so long. This book documents his life through many personal anecdotes from his family and his friends, from the moment the guns saluted his birth to the day he was officially declared as the King at his Coronation.

His star looks set to rise when he stumbles across a scoop: a dead child on a London estate, grieving parents loved across the neighbourhood, and the finger of suspicion pointing at one reclusive family of Irish immigrants and 'bad apples': the Greens.At their heart sits Carmel: beautiful, otherworldly, broken, and once destined for a future beyond her circumstances until life - and love - got in her way. Crushed by failure and surrounded by disappointment, there's nowhere for her to go and no chance of escape. Now, with the police closing in on a suspect and the tabloids hunting their monster, she must confront the secrets and silences that have trapped her family for so many generations.

One of the last surviving members of the futurist generation, Bruno Munari's Design as Art is an illustrated journey into the artistic possibilities of modern design translated by Patrick Creagh published as part of the 'Penguin on Design' series in Penguin Modern Classics.'The designer of today re-establishes the long-lost contact between art and the public, between living people and art as a living thing'Bruno Munari was among the most inspirational designers of all time, described by Picasso as 'the new Leonardo'. Munari insisted that design be beautiful, functional and accessible, and this enlightening and highly entertaining book sets out his ideas about visual, graphic and industrial design and the role it plays in the objects we use everyday. Lamps, road signs, typography, posters, children's books, advertising, cars and chairs - these are just some of the subjects to which he turns his illuminating gaze.How do we see the world around us? The Penguin on Design series includes the works of creative thinkers whose writings on art, design and the media have changed our vision forever.Bruno Munari (1907-1998), born in Milan, was the enfant terrible of Italian art and design for most of the twentieth century, contributing to many fields of both visual (paint, sculpture, film, industrial design, graphics) and non-visual arts (literature, poetry). He was twice awarded the Compasso d'Oro design prize for excellence in his field.If you enjoyed Design as Art, you might like John Berger's Ways of Seeing, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

Moreno-García, Silvia

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Daughter of Doctor Moreau and Mexican Gothic comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi occultism: a dark thriller about the curse that haunts a legendary lost film--and awakens one woman's hidden powers.Montserrat has always been overlooked. She’s a talented sound editor, but she’s left out of the boys’ club running the film industry in ’90s Mexico City. And she’s all but invisible to her best friend, Tristán, a charming if faded soap opera star, though she’s been in love with him since childhood.Then Tristán discovers his new neighbor is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary auteur claims he can change their lives—even if his tale of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like sheer fantasy. The magic film was never finished, which is why, Urueta swears, his career vanished overnight. He is cursed.Now the director wants Montserrat and Tristán to help him shoot the missing scene and lift the curse . . . but Montserrat soon notices a dark presence following her, and Tristán begins seeing the ghost of his ex-girlfriend.As they work together to unravel the mystery of the film and the obscure occultist who once roamed their city, Montserrat and Tristán may find that sorcerers and magic are not only the stuff of movies.
