Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The frescoes of Peruzzi, Raphael and Sodoma still dazzle visitors to the Villa Farnesina, but they survive in a stripped-down environment bereft of its landscape, sealed so it cannot breathe. Turner takes you outside that box, restoring these canonical images to their original context, when each element joined in a productive conversation. He is the first to reconstruct the architect-painter Peruzzi's original, well-proportioned, well-appointed building and to re-visualize his lost facade decorationerotic scenes and mythological figures who make it come alive and soar upward. More comprehensively than any previous scholar, he reintegrates painting, sculpture, architecture, garden design, topographical prints and drawings, archaeological discoveries and literature from the brilliant circle around the patron Agostino Chigi, the powerful banker who 'loved all virtuosi' and commissioned his villa-palazzo from the best talents in multiple arts. It can now be understood as a Palace of Venus, celebrating aesthetic, social and erotic pleasure. This book restores the original vision of the beloved Villa Farnesinaa Palace of Venus celebrating aesthetic, social and erotic pleasure, set among lush gardens with fountains, grotto, pool and banqueting-pavilion, now vanished. It will appeal to in scholars interested in Renaissance art, architecture and history. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
