Examining Bernini's works from 1665 on, from Paris and Rome, this book demonstrates the wealth of material still to be drawn from close visual and material examination, archival research, and comparative textual analysis. On the whole, this collection deals with Bernini's position as the leading creator of portraits - in oils, marble, monumental architecture, and metaphor - of some of the most powerful political players of his day. These studies speak to the growing distance of Gallic absolutism from the fading dreams of papal hegemony over Europe, and to the complexities of Bernini's role as mouthpiece, obstacle, and flatterer of the Princes of the Papal States.

As early as the 1950s, Professor Irving Lavin was recognized as a major voice in American art history. His sustained production of seminal scholarly contributions have left their mark on an astonishingly wide range of -subjects and fields. Bringing these far-reaching publications together will not only provide a valuable resource to scholars and -students, but will also underscore fundamental themes in the history of art - historicism, the art of commemoration, the relationship between style and meaning, the -intelligence of artists - themes that define the role of the visual arts in human communication. Irving Lavin is best known for his array of fundamental publications on the Baroque artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680). These include new discoveries and studies on the master's prodigious childhood, his architecture and -portraiture, his invention of caricature, his depictions of religious faith and political leadership, his work in the -theatre, his attitude toward death and the role of the artist in the creation of a modern sense of social responsibility. All of Professor Lavin's papers on Bernini are here brought together in three volumes. The studies have been reset and in many cases up-dated, and there is a comprehensive index.

"The vitality of Petersson's book is drawn directly from the sculpture of Bernini, an artist now regarded as the true successor of Michelangelo. It differs from others by bringing the reader inside the sculptural process, from genesis to completed form. Frequently Bernini had to solve uniquely interesting problems and his innovative talents never faltered." "As well as presenting the brilliant, flamboyant Bernini, the book simultaneously displays Rome in the throes of its Counter-Reformation renewal, the second birth of the city with the full panoply of its arts, culture, and aberrant activities during Bernini's years in the service of eight popes. In later life he expanded his fame by spending an eventful half year in Paris at the invitation of Louis XIV. The proud and touchy Bernini, then the most celebrated artist in Europe, was in a pitched battle with the arrogant and aggressive French. Yet in Paris as in Rome it is the artistic works that have lasted and are widely known as having redirected the course of European sculpture."--BOOK JACKET. Book jacket.

Das Tagebuch des Paul Freart de Chantelou von 1665 ist eine einmalige Quelle der Frühen Neuzeit. Der Beauftragte der Krone, Höfling und Kunstkenner Chantelou begleitete den weltberühmten römischen Bildhauer und Architekten, Gianlorenzo Bernini, durch Paris und zu den Schlössern des Umlandes, als dieser für ein halbes Jahr am Hofe des Sonnenkönigs weilte. Erstmals gibt ein Zeitzeuge nicht nur einen unmittelbaren Einblick in den höfischen Alltag um Ludwig XIV., er dokumentiert darüber hinaus ausführlich die gelehrten und kontroversen Gespräche über Kunst und Ästhetik. Chantelou liefert einen facettenreichen und anschaulichen Bericht über ein Künstlerleben im Zeitalter des Absolutismus. Das Tagebuch ist vor diesem Hintergrund nicht nur eine retrospektive Aufzeichnung, sondern auch ein eindrücklicher Bericht über den künstlerischen Wettbewerb zwischen Rom und Paris, dessen staatspolitische Relevanz kaum zu überschätzen ist. Gianlorenzo Bernini prägte den römischen Barock wie kein anderer. Deshalb buhlten alle europäische Höfe um sein Talent, doch der Papst monopolisierte seinen Hofkünstler und ließ ihn nur für einige andere ausgewählte Auftraggeber arbeiten. Erst eine schwere diplomatische Krise zwischen Rom und Paris im Jahr 1662 zwang den Pontifex schließlich, Bernini an den aufstrebenden französischen König auszuleihen. Im Alter von 67 Jahren nahm der Künstler die beschwerliche Reise auf sich, um seine Umbaupläne für den Louvre in Paris vorzustellen und den Beginn der Bauarbeiten selbst anzuleiten. In den sechs Monaten seines Aufenthaltes schuf er zudem die weltberühmte Porträtbüste des Sonnenkönigs, deren Entstehung die Hofgesellschaft aufmerksam beobachtete und kommentierte. Chantelou hielt die kontroversen Diskussionen minutiös fest, welche den römischen Künstler nicht selten in Rage und Verzweiflung brachten, wenn er gegen die französische Kunstauffassung kaum ankam und die Kabale um seine Person registrierte. Chantelou schildert wohl das lebendigste und persönlichste Künstlerporträt in den Zwängen des höfischen Alltags des ausgehenden 17. Jahrhunderts. Erstmals seit 85 Jahren liegt das Tagebuch nun in deutscher Neuübersetzung vor, die von Beiträgen zum Stand der aktuellen Forschung begleitet wurden.
