Synopsis
The first comprehensive English monograph on an outstanding 17th-century artist In the years following Caravaggio's death, the French-born painter Valentin de Boulogne (1591-1632) emerged as one of the greatest masters of naturalistic painting, demonstrating the influence of Caravaggio's style and subject matter. This book, the first complete monograph of his work in English, features more than 50 lushly illustrated paintings by Valentin, as well as numerous comparative works that help situate his oeuvre. Essays by an international team of experts explore Valentin's masterful depictions of everyday life as well as the tumult and violence of 17th-century Rome, where he lived and worked. This comprehensive survey brings to light a radical but under-recognized practitioner of realism whose powerful works prefigured the modernity of 19th-century artists such as Gustave Courbet.

    Arrived fast, extremely well protected from damage and arrived in perfect condition, and better than VG condition as could be considered like new. Excellent communication with the seller. Over all the years I have been purchasing, this is a top seller. Cares about the item being sold and even though listed as VG, did give an excellent an accurate desc of the book making it much better than just VG. I hope that there are other items the seller has that I would like to purchase. Thanks
