Product Description

Product Description
From the Middle Ages to this day the colours of Venice have cast their spell over visitors and inspired artists as diverse as Rubens, Turner and Monet. This book traces the origins of that enchantment by exploring Venetian colour in relation to social, cultural and environmental forces, questioning the traditional opposition of the Florentine line.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Amazing & Beautiful book!, 4 Feb 2008

By	mwl (usa) - See all my reviews

This is a really wonderful, unique book.
It is lovely and glossy, like a coffee table art book, EXCEPT that the text is perhaps more wonderful than the images. This book is an inciteful and original look at how colour and culture inform one another. I read it while living for 3 months in Venice and found I was seeing the city THROUGH the lens of this book. I then passed it on to visitors, who became equally mezmerized by it. This book is engagingly written, scholarly, and, in my opinion, a unique and important contribution to the existing art historical analysis of Venitian art.
well worth the asking price, a gem!
