Abstract

Ce recueil d'études dédié à Christian Heck rend hommage à un historien de l?art d?envergure internationale, ancien conservateur en chef du prestigieux musée d'Unterlinden de Colmar (1978-1988) et professeur reconnu, qui a su renouveler en profondeur la réflexion interdisciplinaire sur l?élaboration des images médiévales et sur leur processus de réception et d?analyse. Les trente-cinq essais, écrits par d?éminents spécialistes français et étrangers, touchent aux différents domaines de prédilection de Christian Heck. Une place particulière a été faite bien sûr aux questions d?iconographie et du rapport des images aux textes, cependant, l?architecture, la sculpture et les arts de la couleur y sont également bien représentés.

Abstract

Art in England fills a void in the scholarship of both English and medieval art by offering the first single volume overview of artistic movements in Medieval and Early Renaissance England. Grounded in history and using the chronology of the reign of monarchs as a structure, it is contextual and comprehensive, revealing unobserved threads of continuity, patterns of intention and unique qualities that run through English art of the medieval millennium. By placing the English movement in a European context, this book brings to light many ingenious innovations that focused studies tend not to recognize and offers a fresh look at the movement as a whole. The media studied include architecture and related sculpture, both ecclesiastical and secular; tomb monuments; murals, panel paintings, altarpieces, and portraits; manuscript illuminations; textiles; and art by English artists and by foreign artists commissioned by English patrons

Abstract

This splendidly illustrated book explores the universal and multifaceted theme of nature as manifested in Western European art of the Middle Ages. Fascinating essays consider the concept in the context of medieval philosophy, theology, and poetry. The masterpieces highlighted here, from the distinguished collection of the Musée de Cluny, span the 12th through the 16th centuries and include an impressive array of objects destined for both religious and secular purposes---from exquisite stained glass and carved capitals to spectacular enameled jewelry, illuminated manuscripts, and woven tapestries. Art and Nature in the Middle Ages provides an essential understanding of the symbolism and significance of motifs taken from the natural world, as well as the technical mastery of the medieval artisans who produced these remarkable objects.
