Hardcover. Condizione: As New. This book concerns the art and life of the Ferrarese painter Ercole de Roberti (1456-1496)). Roberti's style was marked by the fascinating peculiarities characteristic of the Ferrarese school of the fifteenth century, while we can also see the influence on his style of artists such as Giovanni Bellini and Netherlandish engravers. He worked for years in Bologna before settling permanently in 1486 in Ferrara, where he became the official court painter for the Este. An introductory section includes a brief history and description of Ferrarese art of the Quattrocentro. The text includes an outline of Roberti's career, a discussion of his works, and a look at the artist's critical fortunes. A catalogue raisonne and a catalogue of rejected attributions supplement the text. A transcription of all of the known documents indicates the full range of Roberti's work. Roberti's works were highly prized by his contemporaries and later Renaissance writers, and his paintings and drawings are made with fine skill and craftsmanship. It is hoped that this book will help to acquaint the reader with Roberti's rich and inventive art.…

"Ercole de'Roberti (c. 1450-1496) e Lorenzo Costa (1460-1535) sono due artisti in apparenza piuttosto diversi. Ercole fu il grande erede della tradizione ferrarese, condusse la scuola locale al suo punto più alto e terminò la sua breve vita mentre era pittore di corte degli Este. Lorenzo spese una lunga parte della sua carriera lontano dalla patria e morì settantacinquenne a Mantova, al servizio dei Gonzaga. Tuttavia i due pittori furono accomunati da una incessante volontà di misurarsi con le più importanti novità che attraversavano l'talia e l'Europa, vissero il loro tempo da assoluti protagonisti ponendosi tra le principali personalità del Rinascimento nell'Italia settentrionale. Dalle atmosfere tese e distillate di Ercole de' Roberti alla moderna pacatezza di Lorenzo Costa, il volume accompagna il visitatore attraverso sei decenni cruciali che hanno cambiato il volto dell'arte ferrarese, e non solo.

["Ercole de'Roberti (c. 1450-1496) and Lorenzo Costa (1460-1535) are two apparently rather different artists. Ercole was the great heir of the Ferrara tradition, he led the local school to its highest point and ended his short life while he was court painter of the Este family. Lorenzo spent a long part of his career away from his homeland and died at the age of seventy-five in Mantua, in the service of the Gonzaga family. However, the two painters were united by an incessant desire to compete with the most important innovations that crossed Italy and Europe, they lived their time as absolute protagonists, placing themselves among the main personalities of the Renaissance in northern Italy. From the tense and distilled atmospheres of Ercole de' Roberti to the modern calmness of Lorenzo Costa, the volume accompanies the visitor through six crucial decades that changed the face of Ferrara art, and beyond.
