Le Gallerie Nazionali d'Arte Antica Barberini e Corsini, situate nel cuore di Roma e ospitate in palazzi di grande pregio architettonico, custodiscono opere di eccezionale valore che coprono un arco cronologico che va dal Duecento al Settecento. Pagina dopo pagina, attraverso i capolavori dei più grandi artisti italiani (Beato Angelico, Raffaello, Piero di Cosimo, Bronzino, Lotto, Tintoretto, Pietro da Cortona, Caravaggio, Bernini, Reni, Guercino, Batoni, Canaletto) si segue lo sviluppo dell'arte del nostro paese. Basti pensare alla Fornarina di Raffaello o alla Giuditta e Oloferne di Caravaggio. Non mancano i grandi maestri stranieri: Hans Holbein, El Greco, Rubens, Poussin, Mengs, Fragonard, Boucher. L'importanza dei due edifici e del formarsi delle loro collezioni in capo a due delle più illustri famiglie centro italiane, i Barberini e i Corsini, così strettamente legate alla storia del pontificato, sono trattate in un breve saggio introduttivo. Oltre alle 100 schede, sono descritti elementi di par ticolare rilievo che fanno parte dell'arredo dei palazzi, ad esempio la Scala elicoidale di Borromini e il soffitto affrescato da Pietro da Cortona con il Trionfo della Divina Provvidenza. Grazie all'accurata campagna fotografica intrapresa dalla Bibliotheca Hertziana e in seguito ai numerosi restauri degli ultimi anni, sarà possibile ammirare fin nei minimi particolari i dipinti e le sculture, tutti riprodotti a piena pagina. Le semplici ma dettagliate schede che accompagnano le immagini guidano il lettore alla comprensione dello stile e dell'iconografia di ogni pezzo, nonché forniscono notizie biografiche, storiche e stilistiche sugli autori. Si tratta della prima guida che include entrambe le Gallerie Nazionali, recentemente accorpate, e il prezzo volutamente contenuto rende il volume di grande interesse per tutti gli appassionati d'arte.

This is the first book in a European language to make a comprehensive study of the life and works of the astonishingly versatile and accomplished Meiji potter, Makuzu Kozan (1842 - 1916), who was acclaimed as one of the greatest ceramic artists of the Meiji period.The Meiji period, after the opening of Japan to the West in the mid-nineteenth century, was a time of momentous change for Japanese society and Kozan's Makuzu workshop makes an ideal case study to examine the effects of these changes on the Japanese ceramic industry. This book tells the story ofKozan's Makuzu wares from their origins in a traditional workshop in Kyoto to their maturity in a prolific factory in the newly-opened port of Yokohama, where Kozan's ability to cater to the demands of a new Western export market and to incorporate new Western glaze techniques led to enormoussuccess, both in Japan and abroad at the international exhibitions that flourished from the 1850s.Lavish illustrations highlight Kozan's remarkable and technical and artistic achievements, while ceramic marks and box inscriptions are analysed as a practical guide to dating Makuzu ware. Clare Pollard discusses the role of later generations of the Miyagawa family in the running of the workshop andrelates developments in Makuzu ware to the work of other major potters of the era, both in Japan and in Europe and America.Incorporating contemporary sources (including previously unstudied archival material from the Makuzu workshop itself), recent research and the study of a large corpus of Makuzu wares in museums and private collections all over the world, the book examines the artistic, political, and commercialfactors that influenced Kozan and his contemporaries as they strove to come to terms with shifting life-styles and changing attitudes to the arts, and moved towards the creation of a modern ceramic industry.

Faith and Power in Japanese Buddhist Art explores the transformation of Buddhism from the premodern to the contemporary era in Japan and the central role its visual culture has played in this transformation. Although Buddhism is generally regarded as peripheral to modern Japanese society, this book demonstrates otherwise. Its chapters elucidate the thread of change over time in the practice of Buddhism as revealed in temple worship halls and other sites of devotion and in imagery representing the religion’s most popular deities and religious practices. It also introduces the work of modern and contemporary artists who are not generally associated with institutional Buddhism and its canonical visual requirements but whose faith inspires their art. The author makes a persuasive argument that the neglect of these materials by scholars results from erroneous presumptions about the aesthetic superiority of early Japanese Buddhist artifacts and an asserted decline in the institutional power of the religion after the sixteenth century. She demonstrates that recent works constitute a significant contribution to the history of Japanese art and architecture, providing evidence of Buddhism’s compelling presence at all levels of Japanese society and its evolution in response to the needs of new generations of supporters.

History from Things explores the many ways objects—defined broadly to range from Chippendale tables and Italian Renaissance pottery to seventeenth-century parks and a New England cemetery—can reconstruct and help reinterpret the past. Eighteen essays describe how to “read” artifacts, how to “listen to” landscapes and locations, and how to apply methods and theories to historical inquiry that have previously belonged solely to archaeologists, anthropologists, art historians, and conservation scientists. Spanning vast time periods, geographical locations, and academic disciplines, History from Things leaps the boundaries between fields that use material evidence to understand the past. The book expands and redirects the study of material culture—an emerging field now building a common base of theory and a shared intellectual agenda.
