Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: New. From the salon to the boudoir: the world of Casanova as seen through the art of his eraIn 18th-century Europe, while the old order reveled in the luxurious excesses of the Rococo style and the Enlightenment sowed the seeds of revolution, the shapeshifting libertine Giacomo Casanova seduced his way across the continent. Although notorious for the scores of amorous conquests he recorded in his remarkably frank memoirs, Casanova was just as practiced at charming his way into the most elite social circles, through an inimitable mix of literary ambition, improvisational genius and outright fraud. In his travels across Europe and through every level of society from the theatrical demimonde to royal courts, he was also seduced by the visual splendors he encountered.This volume accompanies the first major art exhibition outside Europe to lavishly recreate Casanovas visual world, from his birthplace of Venice, city of masquerades, to the cultural capitals of Paris and London and the outposts of Eastern Europe. Summoning up the people he met and the cityscapes, highways, salons, theaters, masked balls, boudoirs, gambling halls and dining rooms he frequented, it provides a survey of important works of 18th-century European art by masters such as Canaletto, Fragonard, Boucher, Houdon and Hogarth, along with exquisite decorative arts objects.Twelve essays by prominent scholars illuminate multiple facets of Casanovas world as reflected in the arts of his time, providing a fascinating grand tour of Europe conducted by a quintessential figure of the 18th century as well as a splendid visual display of the spirit of the age.

Descrizione libro gebunden. Condizione: Neu. Neu -Als Giacomo Casanova seine verführerische Reise durch Europa antrat, schwelgte die feine Gesellschaft im Europa des ausgehenden 18. Jahrhunderts noch in den Formen des Rokoko und die anbrechende Aufklärung legte die Saat für revolutionäre Bestrebungen. Seine besondere Persönlichkeit, zusammengesetzt aus Charme, Bildung und guten Manieren, öffnete ihm die Herzen und die Türen vornehmer Salons. Casanovas Erzählungen handeln von der Halbwelt des Theaters und königlichen Höfen. Dieser Band erschien anlässlich der ersten bedeutenden Casanova Ausstellung außerhalb Europas. Er lässt die glanzvolle Zeit des Casanova vor den Augen des Lesers wieder auferstehen; seinen Geburtsort Venedig, Stadt der Maskenspiele, die kulturellen Zentren Paris und London und die europäischen Randbereiche im Osten des Kontinents. Vorgestellt werden die Menschen, mit denen er zusammen traf, die Salons, Theater, Kasinos und Boudoirs. Das Buch liefert einen hervorragenden Überblick zur Kunst der Zeit. Meisterwerke, geschaffen von berühmten Künstlern wie Canaletto, Fragonard, Boucher, Houdon und Hogarth, zeigt der Band zusammen mit herausragenden Stücken des Kunsthandwerks. Die zwölf von Experten verfassten Essays beleuchten die unterschiedlichen Facetten dieser faszinierenden Welt.
