Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. EXTRAORDINARY: BEAUTIFUL: SUMPTUOUS: NEW Unstated First Edition (Orig. 2016) Unstated First Printing * ABOUT THE BOOK: When the excavations at Pompeii were first placed on a scholarly archaeological footing in the 19th century, brothers Fausto & Felice Niccolini were close at hand & ready to respond. Making use of the newly introduced technique of color lithography, they documented the buildings, frescos, statues, as well as the most ordinary everyday objects, of the city buried in just 24 hours by the catastrophic eruption of Vesuvius & preserved for over 1,600 years under a mantle of volcanic ash. The Niccolinis' goal was to illustrate all aspects of life in the antique city. Their publication, "Le case ed i monumenti di Pompei"--"The Houses & Monuments of Pompeii"--which was issued in installments between 1854 & 1896 in Naples, presented over 400 color plates providing not only views, maps, & ground-plans of the city & its public buildings, but also offered unprecedented access to Pompeii's private residences. They revealed the astonishing painted wall decorations that adorned these long-buried abodes, their intricate works of art, & the practical utensils of everyday use, conjuring up a vivid picture of ea. house as a real domestic space. In total, the plates illustrated more than 1,000 items, ea. extensively specified & located for the first time, making the publication a major reference in Pompeii research. In addition, "animated" representations visualized daily life in Pompeii's workshops, taverns, & shops, on its public squares, & in its temples, theaters, & baths. This meticulous facsimile revives the Niccolinis' extraordinary achievement w/ all color plates & two introductory essays setting the project in its contemporary context & presenting the historical protagonists of the Vesuvian excavations. In addition, we explore the remarkable influence exerted by Pompeian art--& by the haunting plaster casts made of victims of the eruption--on the visual arts. Across painting, sculpture, & interior design, we trace the Pompeii legacy in the work of Robert Adam, Anton Raphael Mengs, Angelika Kaufmann, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Pablo Picasso, & Giorgio de Chirico, right through to recent masters Duane Hanson and George Segal. * ABOUT THE AUTHORS: SEBASTIAN SCHUTZ was a longtime research fellow at the Bibliotheca Hertziana (Max Planck Institute for Art History) in Rome.
