Illuminations: Italian Baroque Masterworks in Canadian Collections
Editat de Benedict Lecaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2015
Featuring some of Canada's foremost Baroque paintings, Illuminations studies the Baroque fascination with theatricality and visual spectacle in religious, mythological, and popular imagery. It explores how seventeenth-century audiences were confronted with pictures that frequently broke conventions by manipulating the sources and meaning of light while depicting all types of subjects.
