Synopsis:
Winters introduces Richard Flagg and Erma Flagg's collection of some hundred objects made during 1450 to 1900. Most of the beautifully crafted, highly decorative, yet functional pieces are examples of Renaissance and Baroque marvels; they include clocks (a particularly varied and sumptuaous collection), sculpture, inlaid boxes, china and glassware, tankards, metalwork, and furniture. Each of the 77 individual chefs-d'oeuvres documented in this catalog, celebrating the gift of the Flaggs to the Milwaukee Art Museum, are exceptional examples of artisty combined with technical achievement. Such is the case with a 15th-century Cassone from Florence replete with intarsia and coat of arms, signaling a marital alliance between the nobility. Another magnificent piece, highlighted through an individual entry in the catalog, is a 15th-century limestone tympanum, possibly from the Burgundy region of France, showing the enthroned Virgin and Child. The physical properties of this volume are as elaborate as the objects it defines; lavish full-page color plates illustrate the pieces, lengthy catalog entries provide detailed information, and the whole is supplemented with appendixes consisting of checklist and glossary. 69 colour & 29 b/w illustrations
Synopsis: This text celebrates the Flagg Collection of European Decorative Arts and Sculpture. Each object is accompanied by an authoritative commentary, providing insight in to the culture, religion and history of the Renaissance.

gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Die »Richard and Erna Flagg Collection« hat sich über die letzten 60 Jahre formiert und befindet sich seit 1991 als Leihgabe im Milwaukee Art Museum. Sie stellt ohne Zweifel eine der bedeutendsten Leihgaben frühen europäischen Kunsthandwerks an ein amerikanisches Museum dar und beinhaltet einzigartige und historisch wertvolle Objekte aus der Zeit der Renaissance und des Barock. Obwohl diese Werke eine große Spanne an Stilen und Herkunftsorten umfasst, wird die Sammlung zusammengehalten von der Betonung virtuoser Handwerkskunst, technischer Innovation und kostbarer Materialien. »A Renaissance Treasury« wurde mit einer gewissen visuellen Opulenz entworfen in dem Wunsch, die vorgestellte Sammlung auch in Buchform angemessen darzustellen.
