Giovanni Bellini by Philip Hendy and Ludwig Goldscheider, 1st Ed

About the Item

Giovanni Bellini by Philip Hendy and Ludwig Goldscheider. ?Publisher Phaidon; 1945. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. With 6 tipped in color plates and 122 b&w plates. Giovanni Bellini, c. 1430-1516, was an Italian Renaissance painter, probably the best known of the Bellini family of Venetian painters. He was raised in the household of Jacopo Bellini, formerly thought to have been his father, but now that familial generational relationship is questioned. An older brother, Gentile Bellini was more highly regarded than Giovanni during his lifetime, but the reverse is true today. His brother-in-law was Andrea Mantegna. Bellini was considered to have revolutionized Venetian painting, moving it toward a more sensuous and coloristic style. Through the use of clear, slow-drying oil paints, Giovanni created deep, rich tints and detailed shadings. His sumptuous coloring and fluent, atmospheric landscapes had a great effect on the Venetian painting school, especially on his pupils Giorgione and Titian. NPT Books a division of N.P. Trent Antiques has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
