Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912), was one of the finest and most distinctive of the Victorian painters. Dutch-born, he moved to London in 1870 and became famous for his depictions of the luxury and decadence of the Roman Empire, set in fabulous marbled interiors or against a backdrop of dazzling blue Mediterranean sea and sky. In this original study, Rosemary Barrow presents an absorbing and often amusing portrait of an exuberant personality who carved out a brilliant career for himself at the heart of London's artistic and cultural elite. But above all she subjects the paintings to a fresh scrutiny, and reveals that Alma-Tadema, a knowledgeable student of antiquity, repeatedly used literary and archaeological allusions in his paintings to play a game of interpretation with his viewers. Time and again the seeming innocence of the scenes he depicts is subverted by a mischievously placed inscription or statue, suggesting to the initiated a darker and usually risque meaning. Neglected after his death, Alma-Tadema's paintings are once again admired for their beauty and their remarkable mastery of light, colour and texture. With its intriguing insights into his personality and intentions, this book should provide a challenging reassessment of a major artist.
非常美的画册,我喜欢希腊时代的服装
评分Alma Tadema技巧要比安格尔好,属于叙事和考古还原的画家,比起人体更擅长画大理石和古罗马古埃及物质生活细节。也有人认为Alma Tadema是属于讨巧市场的画家但算不上是艺术家,他的作品太悦人眼球了。罗斯金非常讨厌他,认为其歪曲了古典美的定义。然而Alma Tadema一些作品之下包含的微妙讽刺正在渐渐被重新发现。部分图片有点糊、偏色,一些图偏小。
