Initially published by Penn State Press in 1965, Catherine Enggass's translation of Filippo Baldinucci's Life of Bernini was the first English-language edition of this historic biography. Out of print for many years, The Life of Bernini is now available in a new paperback edition with an introduction by Maarten Delbeke, Evonne Levy, and Steven F. Ostrow, the editors of Bernini's Biographies. Baldinucci's unusual stand-alone biography of Bernini, begun while his subject was still alive, offers important insights into contemporary perceptions of the artist, the motivations of its author, and the nature of literary biography in seventeenth-century Italy.

This collection contains 106 of Bernini's finest drawings, from a third to a half of his surviving graphic output, drawings characterized by bold assurance and confidence, exquisite precision, brilliance, and subtlety. Included are not only preparatory sketches and designs for the above projects, but splendid figure studies, probing portraits and self-portraits, ingenious caricatures, designs for medals, and drawings for frontispieces. We see the whole range of this artist's draughtsmanship, form his first thoughts on numerous projects to finished works of art. The volume, arranged chronologically, begins with one of Bernini's earliest surviving drawings, the "Portrait of a Young Man" (c. 1615), a possible self-portrait, and ends with a caricature of Pope Innocent XI from the last years of the artist's life (1676-80). As Bernini grew more and more successful, he became in fact a designer rather than a maker of sculpture. The drawings take on a special importance as a key indication of Bernini's original intentions, the way he saw and created projects, which his assistants than executed with varying degrees of competence. -- From publisher's description.

Unique among early modern artists, the Baroque painter, sculptor, and architect Gianlorenzo Bernini was the subject of two monographic biographies published shortly after his death in 1680: one by the Florentine connoisseur and writer Filippo Baldinucci (1682), and the second by Bernini's son, Domenico (1713). This interdisciplinary collection of essays by historians of art and literature marks the first sustained examination of the two biographies, first and foremost as texts. A substantial introductory essay considers each biography's author, genesis, and foundational role in the study of Bernini. Nine essays combining art-historical research with insights from philology, literary history, and art and literary theory offer major new insights into the multifarious connections between biography, art history, and aesthetics, inviting readers to rethink Bernini's life, art, and milieu. Contributors are Eraldo Bellini, Heiko Damm, John D. Lyons, Sarah McPhee, Tomaso Montanari, Rudolf Preimesberger, Robert Williams, and the editors.Maarten Delbeke is Assistant Professor of architectural history and theory at the universities of Ghent and Leiden. Formerly the Scott Opler Fellow in Architectural History at Worcester College (Oxford), he is the author of several articles and a forthcoming book on Seicento art and theory.Evonne Levy is Associate Professor of the History of Art at the University of Toronto. She is also the author of Propaganda and the Jesuit Baroque (2004).
