Jacques Callot, French Book by Paulette Choné, 1992
About the Item
Jacques Callot 1592 - 1635, French book by Paulette Choné, 1992.
This important book was published after the Jacques Callot exhibition presented at the Lorraine Historical Museum in Nancy from June 13 to September 14, 1992.
For the fourth centenary of the birth of Jacques Callot, his native town paid homage to him. The exhibition at the Lorraine Historical Museum was a great first in terms of size and appeal.
The famous engraver was also one of the greatest draftsmen of the seventeenth century. Among his most famous artworks, we can cite the Caprices and the Fair of Impruneta, the Temptation of Saint Anthony, and the characters from the Commedia dell' Arte, the Bohemians, and the Miseries of War.
The confrontation of hundreds of prints with two hundred and fifty sketches, less known to the public, lent by museums in Europe and America, reveals the diversity of this master of comedy and tragedy.
This catalog was edited for a major international exhibition of his graphic production, with seventeen essays by as many authors, including Maxime Préaud, Jean-Marc Dupluvrez, Pierre Béhar, Alain Larcan, and Paulette Choné. Some 500 prints and 200 drawings are presented in this book, organized by topic and chronologically.
This is a beautiful coffee table art book.
