At the beginning of the late 1500s, painters in Bologna began to revolutionize the art world by rejecting Mannerism - a style characterized by the depiction of the human form in intricate, often exaggerated poses - and moving toward the Baroque, with its elaborate grandeur, sensuality, and portrayal of emotion."Captured Emotions" is a richly illustrated volume that presents readers with an authoritative and accessible survey of this hugely important period in Italian art. It begins by giving an overview of the history of Bolognese painting, before moving on to look at specific topics, such as portraiture, cabinet pictures, naturalism and classicism. Concluding with an examination of the developments made in the eighteenth-century under Giuseppe Maria Crespi, this is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in this innovative period in the history of art.

Seller's Description:
New. This catalogue, which accompanies a collaborative exhibition between the Dresden State Museums and the J. Paul Getty Museum that brings together Bolognese Baroque paintings from both Dresden and Southern California public and private collections, provides an engaging survey of one of the most important and influential schools of Italian painting from 1575 to 1725. The exhibition will be on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum from December 16, 2008, through May 3, 2009. The book's essays strive to make these paintings--the majority of them deeply religious and as a whole extremely innovative in their time--understandable to and appreciated by a modern audience. Charles Dempsey's introduction gives an overview of the history of Bolognese painting, while Andreas Henning and Scott Schaefer lay out the history of the collecting of Bolognese paintings in Dresden and Southern California. Additional essays on Carracci, portraiture, cabinet pictures, naturalism, classicism, and the concluding eighteenth-century developments under Giuseppe Maria Crespi further illuminate these incredible works.
