"Venice has always prided itself on its glamorous and exclusive style, and the term 'Venetian' has been associated with beauty and opulence for centuries. The quality of the Venetian syle has softened the divide that traditionally separated arts from crafts. In the city on the lagoon, where famous painters such as Titian, Tintoretto, Guardi and Tiepolo made Venetian scenes famous throughout the world, other, lesser known but equalliy important workshops contributed to the excellence of Venetian arts and crafts. With their creativity and excellent taste, master craftsmen gave shape to a variety of materials. Stone, wood, iron, bronze, gold, silver, glass, ceramic, stucco, cloth, and leather turn into masterpieces of unique beauty and perfection in the hands of expert Venetian artisans. This book, subdivided in four sections corresponding to the art materials -- the solid arts, the malleable sarts, the fragile arts and the soft arts--provides a showcase of magnificent objects, most never seen before, many of which are housed in the aristocratic palaces of Venice. Doretta Davanzo Poli, an expert in what has been called, inappropriately as this book will prove, the 'minor arts', proposes for each chapter a chronological reading of the artisan guilds whose artistic production, adapting to the changing times and fashions, is documented in over two hundred illustrations. The extraordinary photography by Mark E. Smith, whose sensitivity to detail and familiarity with Venetian life captures the essence of objects and decorations, emphasizes the material itself and its transformation into objects d'art and artistic maseterpieces. Where should one look to appreciate the splendor of Venetian decoration? In the lightness of marble panels, the varied chromatic quality of the floors, the sumptuousness of the ceilings -- sculptured and gilded? Or in the virtuosity of the wooden inlays, the unique forging of the grillwork, the transparencies of glass and the masterful stucco decorations? Here, and in many other examples of outstanding craftsmanship presented in this book, the reader will find the elegance that raises Venetian ornamentation to the status of true art"--Publisher's description, p.

The transformation of the Venetian glass industry during the Renaissance was not only a technical phenomenon, but also a social one. In this volume, Patrick McCray examines the demand, production and distribution of glass and glassmaking technology during this period and evaluates several key topics, including the nature of Renaissance demand for certain luxury goods, the interaction between industry and government in the Renaissance, and technological change as a social process. McCray places in its broader economic and cultural context a craft and industry that has been traditionally viewed primarily through the surviving artefacts held in museum collections. McCray explores the social and economic context of glassmaking in Venice, from the guild and state level down to the workings of the individual glass house. He tracks the dissemination of Venetian-style glassmaking throughout Europe during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and its effects on Venice’s glass industry. Integrating evidence from a wide variety of sources - written documents such as shop records and recipe books, pictorial representations of glass and glassmaking, and the careful physical and chemical analysis of glass pieces that have survived to the present - he examines the relation between consumer demand and technological change. In the process, he traces the organizational changes that signified a transition from an older and more traditional manner of ’artisan’ manufacture to a modern, ’factory-style’ manner of production.

"A deliciously familiar yet seemingly untouchable and magical world, Venice has an unparalleled legacy of monuments, traditions, and culture dating back more than 1600 years. From the fogs that haunt its streets to the sunlight that bathes its churches, the beautiful city of Venice exists in another time. Sumptuously illustrated with over 300 photographs, this is the Venice that guidebooks do not show-the Venice that the people who live there love best. Exploring the history, architecture, art, day-to-day life, and the hidden treasures of this beautiful city, the comprehensive scope of this attractive boxed set is what distinguishes it from others of its kind.
