Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

A matte softcover book with the title in white down a mostly brown spine. Pages: 8, ix-xiv, (5), 4-180. Illustrated with a majority color images. "This volume of 'Facture', a biennial journal that presents the latest conservation research on works of art at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, focuses exclusively on conservation treatment, technical art history, and scientific research related to masterpieces by the beloved French artist Edgar Degas (1834-1917). The National Gallery's extraordinary collection of sculptures, paintings, and works on paper by Degas, including an incomparable group of his wax sculptures allows the institution to contribute significantly to understanding the artist's methods and intentions. This volume features discussions of the notion of 'finish' in Degas's paintings, the complex makeup of his wax sculptures, the casting of posthumous bronzes, his innovative use of multiple layers of pastel and fixative in a late work on paper, and even a sonnet that Degas wrote to his 'little dancer.'" Contents are as follows: Degas and difficulty / Richard Kendall -- The question of Finnish in the work of Edgar Degas / An Hoenigswald and Kimberly A. Jones -- Edgar Degas's wax sculptures: characterization and comparison with contemporary practice / Suzanne Quillen Komax, Barbara H. Berrie, and Michael Palmer -- Casting Degas's sculpture into bronze: a closer look / Daphne Barbour and Shelley Sturman -- Technical exploration of Edgar Degas's Ballet Scence: a late pastel on tracing paper / Michelle Facini, Katbryn A. Dooley, John K. Delaney, Suzanne Quillen Lomax, and Michael Palmer -- Edgar Degas and Mary Cassatt: a comparison of drawings for soft-ground etchings / Kimberly Schenck -- The Little Dancer in wax and words: reading a sonnet by Edgar Degas / Alison Luchs.…
