Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Blue and black & color illus. wraps. 332 pp. Profuse color and bw plates. Issued in conjunction with several 1997 exhibitions of Gothic ivory carvings. "We can offer the public the rare pleasure of seeing first-hand these magnificent works of art brought together from many of the best-known museums of Europe and America. Leaves of diptychs that have long been divided are reunited here for the first time in modern history. . Scholars from around the world can make close comparisons of stylistically and iconographically similar ivories, testing the correctness of specific workshop attributions. And, as an added bonus that appeals to our human curiosity and challenges our eyes, the last section of this exhibition focuses on a number of ivories that present various problems of authenticity, including several that are blatant modern fakes. The present handsome catalogue advances our knowledge and appreciation of ivories." (foreword) With illustrated essays by Peter Barnet, Elizabeth Sears, Paul Williamson, Danielle Gaborit-Chopin, Richard H. Randall, Jr., Charles T. Little, and Harvey Stahl. The annotated and illustrated catalogue presents 93 pieces in these categories: The first Gothic ivories; Paris and other centers: devotional objects; Secular objects and the Romance tradition; New devekopments in irvory and bone carving; and Epilogue: pastiches, revivals, forgeries, and open questions. Includes a bibliography. Stunning images. VG (Clean interior; may have some rubbing or scuffing to covers).
