Zurbarán
Shipping price will be calculated at checkout. Taxes included
Zurbarán’s paintings can give a folded cloth or a solitary figure an almost overwhelming presence. This exhibition publication examines the Spanish painter’s use of naturalism, symbolism and dramatic religious imagery, placing his achievements within the commissions and patrons that shaped his career.
Written by specialists, the book moves between large sacred works, intimate domestic subjects and closely observed still lifes. Its account of the artist’s major commissions is accompanied by new research and extensive illustrations. For readers drawn to historical paintings with deep shadows and concentrated emotion, it offers substance beyond atmosphere: the images emerge from the devotional life and artistic culture of seventeenth-century Spain. A substantial introduction to an artist whose restraint can be as powerful as more overt theatrical effects.
