Item Number: 125613 Title: GASPAR VAN WITTEL : views of Italy Author: Tarizzo, Emanuela ; Nicola Spinosa (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788849226614 Description: Roma: Gangemi, 2013. 30 x 21cm., pbk., 60pp. illus. Exhibitino held at Cesare Lampronti Gallery, London. Summary: Gaspar van Wittel succeeded above all other artists in capturing the lights, mysteries and poetry of Rome, skilfully bringing together the painting technique of the Dutch School he had learnt during his apprenticeship with the intense emotional character of Roman 17th Century art, which he had encountered upon his arrival in Italy. The decision to inaugurate our new London Gallery with an exhibition devoted to van Wittel has for me a very special significance. First because throughout my career the work of van Wittel has been the focus of particular attention and research; and secondly, because I hope that this Gallery will be a window on Italian culture in the heart of London (Cesare Lampronti). We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O. Box 3904, Kingston, New York 12402 US Phone: 845-331-8519 Fax: 845-331-0852 Email: michael@artbooks.com |
