This exceptional collection, which has never previously been published, consists of 65 works on paper created between the 16th and 19th centuries. The Harris-Truelove Collection is uniquely and tightly focused on works from the royal courts of North India, and the majority of these drawings served as preparatory material for the opaque watercolour illustrations that have been widely collected and studied. This catalogue celebrates the assured line of the Indian draftsman and recognizes these drawings as accomplished works of art in their own right. The text details the process and technique involved in their production, and explores what can be revealed by the artist's hand. This in-depth look at drawings also contextualizes the role of art production in court culture, and reveals the intricacies of artistic workshop practice. / Ainsley M.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In the ancient Mediterranean and West Asian worlds, queens and royal dynastic women, including Arsinoe II, Ada, Naqia and Cleopatra VII, maintained power through their artistic portrayal, their cultural patronage and their relationship with cult worship. Ancient Queenship: Art, Power, and Presence recovers the lived experiences, responsibilities and public personas of dynastic women. Sources drawn from the first millennium BCE to today question our assumptions on queenly status, and ask us to reconsider who holds power, to examine how histories are created and altered, and to centre the often-unexplored narratives of royal women. The volume looks at how the theme of queenship has been re-owned and repositioned over time by creating conversation between ancient objects and artworks and ephemera dating from the 15th to the 21st century. These dynamic visions of ancient feminine power occupy new contexts in contemporary popular culture. The blurring of the historical and archaeological records with more modern mythologies, especially those of Salome and the Queen of Sheba, continue to facilitate new connections with royal women over 2000 years old. Ancient Queenship features over 60 artworks drawn from international museum collections, and includes a specially-commissioned piece by contemporary artist Maryam Yousif. 117 colour illustrations This publication explores the meaning, functions and representations of royal feminine power across the ancient world to the present day. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
