30274-Museum of Fine Arts Boston 2008-. Exhibition catalogue. First edition first impression 2008. Illustrated mainly in colour. Still in publishers original shrink-wrap. As new. Cloth. Fine in dustjacket. Philip III 1578-1621 so often dismissed in favor of Philip II and Philip IV actually presided over an era of crucial artistic development in Spain. His reign was a time of cultural and political vitality for the Spanish monarchy as the king and his court having successfully maintained a peaceful foreign policy in Europe the "Pax Hispanica" ushered in a style of grandeur where fabulous gala celebrations building campaigns picture collecting recreation and travel were the order of the day. Accordingly the art of this period flourished witnessing the birth of a naturalistic style that was variously reflected in a new attention to detail and spatiality in court portraiture the thriving of still life the humanizing of saints and the development of polychrome sculpture. Focusing on the careers of the mature El Greco and the young Velázquez which bookend this exciting period of resurgent court culture this volume also investigates the works of lesser-known but highly talented artists who exerted a critical influence on the development of Spanish painting. Essays by several noted scholars provide indispensable perspectives on the historical literary cultural and religious context in which these artists lived. The product of 20 years of research and illustrated with a sumptuousness befitting its subject El Greco to Velázquez is sure to become a standard reference for enthusiasts of Spanish art.
