Living in Baroque-era Rome but keeping his distance from contemporary trends, Sassoferrato worked in the spirit of a craftsman, creating devotional images for the Counter-Reformation market with such pure intensity that he earned himself the title \"pictor virginum.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe studies presented in this volume examine how Sassoferrato developed his sparse, archaizing style, the patrons he served and the extent of his influence in the artistic debates of the 19th century (favored by the Purists and Nazarenes and critiqued by John Ruskin, Sassoferrato's pictures found new life). \u003ci\u003eIl Sassoferrato\u003c\/i\u003e charts the painter's trajectory and his forging, via the example of Raphael, of a unique style as far removed from Baroque theatricality as it was from Caravaggio-esque naturalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11325253\"\u003eSassoferrato\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Silvana Editoriale\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/27\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 9.50w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788836637577\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8836637574\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-ART\"\u003eArt\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-ART015080\"\u003eHistory | Renaissance\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-ART\"\u003eArt\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-ART016030\"\u003eIndividual Artists | Monographs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Silvana Editoriale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42675602817261,"sku":"9.79E+12","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_a8a93ebf-3c8c-41f5-a78b-2bb71789f6ed.jpg?v=1649605833","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/il-sassoferrato-devout-beauty-9788836637577","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
