Description

Foreword by Roberto Paolo Ciardi. Introduction by Jean Julia Chai. Afterword by Alexander Marr. 'Lomazzo's Aesthetic Principles Reflected in the Art of his Time' explores the work of the Milanese artist-theorist Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo (1538–92) and his influence on the circle of the Accademia della Val di Blenio and beyond. Following reflections on Lomazzo's 'fortuna critica', the accompanying essays examine his admiration of Gaudenzio Ferrari; Lomazzo’s painted 'oeuvre'; his influence on printmaking with Giovanni Ambrogio Brambilla; on drawing and painting with Aurelio Luini; on the decorative arts and the embroideress Caterina Cantoni; his pupils Giovanni Ambrogio Figino and Girolamo Ciocca; grotesque sculpture outside Milan; and Lomazzo in England with Richard Haydocke’s translation of the 'Trattato'. In doing so, this book takes an innovative approach — one which aims to bridge the scholarship, hitherto disjoined, between Lomazzo the artist and Lomazzo the theorist — while expanding our knowledge of a protagonist of Renaissance and early modern art theory.
