Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Over 290 black and white prints throughout. ***Very good in red cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to spine. Lower back board slightly bumped. No inscriptions. Spine tight. Slight off-setting to front free endpaper. In a very good illustrated dustwrapper rubbed and creased at edges and corners. Two small closed tears and crease to top edge of front panel. Nicks and rubbing to corners. Head of spine chipped and creased with small tears and a small chip. Tail of spine nicked, creased and rubbed. Orange lettering to front panel of dustwrapper slightly faded. Dustwrapper not price-clipped, showing original publisher's price of 84s net. ***272 pages including bibliography. ***256 mm x 188 mm. ***'Many of the best printmakers in the history of art have depicted the world with a jaundiced eye and caustic hand. In this handsome and thoughtful book, Frank and Dorothy Getlein contend that the technique of printmaking has always lent itself especially well to irony, social satire and the exposing of human folly. The results have often been humorous, biting or slightly wicked, but prints have never been more highly regarded and prized than they are today.---Starting with a careful explanation of the physical process itself, and showing how the method influences the subject matter and the point of view of the artist, the authors trace the beginning of prints in Europe and the emergence of Albrecht Durer as the first great print-master.---The book then devotes a chapter to Durer's students and successors, considers Rembrandt, Callot, Hogarth, Goya, Daumier, Rouault, and some later artists, showing in each case how the method affected the ideas that the artist presented, and why some prints are effective and successful while others are not. They consider the relation of prints to society and discuss the ironies of the market itself.' (Quote from inside front jacket blurb). ***A handsomely illustrated, very detailed, and expensively produced book, of interest to artists, historians, readers of literature, scholars and collectors of illustrated books.***For our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.***Please note that this is a heavyweight tome, printed on expensive glossy paper, and will cost more than our quoted price to post, especially overseas.…
