內容簡介

內容簡介 Artist, architect, poet and philosopher, Leon Battista Alberti revolutionized the history of art with his theories of perspective in On Painting (1435). Inspired by the order and beauty inherent in nature, his groundbreaking work sets out the principles of distance, dimension and proportion; instructs the painter on how to use the rules of composition, representation, light and colour to create work that is graceful and pleasing to the eye; and stipulates the moral and artistic pre-requisites of the successful painter. On Painting had an immediate and profound influence on Italian Renaissance artists including Ghiberti, Fra Angelico and Veneziano and on later figures such as Leonardo da Vinci, and remains a compelling theory of art.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

各界推薦

各界推薦 阿勒貝爾地於1435年以拉丁文寫下《論繪畫》這本書,次年義大利文譯本也緊接著出版。他寫這本書的動機在於為當時畫家立下繪畫的法則,使繪畫由手工勞動晉升自由藝術的行列。這本書洋溢著人文主義的色彩,為繪畫灌注理性與知性的精神,是文藝復興藝術理論的最佳範本。 文藝復興是西方繪畫中的直線透視法發展成熟的時期,也是標示著高度人文主義精神的時代。書中關於透視與敘事的指導對文藝復興繪畫與浮雕作品產生了深遠的影響。 阿勒貝爾地相信自然中蘊藏著神聖的理性,而它正是一切藝術與生命的終極準則。因此,在《論繪畫》的第一書中,完全以數學幾何為主,意圖說明高貴的藝術起源於自然理性的法則之中。書中提出藝術家關於構圖、空間構成以及光影鋪陳的實踐原則,並要求藝術家充實人文與藝術的知識,他希望畫家不只是個工匠,而是個自由藝術家。(文/許麗香)

作者介紹

作者介紹 Leon Battista Alberti was the archetype of the Renaissance 'universal man'. Bron in Genoa in 1404, he belonged to one of the wealthy merchant-banker families of Florence, and was sent to boarding school in Padua where he received a classical Latin education. Graduating in canon law from the University of Bologna, he subsequently entered the service of the Church and became a secretary in the Papal Chancery at Rome. Taking holy orders, he returned to Florence in 1434, where his association with Donatello and Brunelleschi led to the book On Painting and his interest in the design of Churches. He died in Rome in 1472. Cecil Grayson was Serena Professor of Italian Studies and Fellow of Magdalen College from 1958 to 1987 and was honoured by numerous Italian academies. The leading authority on Alberti's written work, he was awarded the CBE in 1992. Martin Kemp has been Professor of the History of Art at the University of Oxford since 1995.Leon Battista Alberti was the archetype of the Renaissance 'universal man'.
