Beschreibung

The Florentine master Jacopo da Pontormo is the greatest exponent of Mannerism, an artistic style that predominated Italy at the end of the Renaissance. His works broke away from the prevailing classicism of his time to create a more personal, expressive technique. He is famous for his use of sinuous poses, elongated forms and ambiguous perspective. The agitated, almost neurotic emotionalism of his works offers an unusual departure from the balance and tranquillity of the High Renaissance. Pontormo’s extraordinary achievements anticipated the Baroque, as well as the radical work of El Greco. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail. This volume presents Pontormo’s complete paintings, with concise introductions, hundreds of high quality images and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
