12 Animals in World Art
19.99 €
The main characters of the book - twelve animals of the earth, air and sea: from a formidable whale to an elegant white-winged crane, from a flexible cheetah to a shy giraffe - together pave a continuous path through the entire history of art: from the late ancient mosaics of Aquileia, laid out at the dawn of Christianity in the IV century, to the vivid performances of Joseph Beuys. In parallel, the book tells about Giotto, Leonardo da Vinci, Katsushik Hokusai, Eugene Delacroix and many others. The purpose of this book is to show that the presence of animals is necessary not only for ecosystems and the natural world, but also for the deepest and most fundamental aspects of human culture and art.
