In his search for criteria of excellence in art, Rosenberg examines both the achievements and failures of other critics from the Renaissance to modern times, including Giorgio Vasari, Roger de Piles, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Théophile Thoré, and Roger Fry. Drawing vital lessons from these critics' writings, Rosenberg charts an effective approach to the challenges of judging quality in works of art by analyzing master drawings from the fifteenth to twentieth centuries and comparing them with examples of followers or minor contemporaries. The result is a set of practical criteria that are applicable across diverse periods and styles. Brimming with insights from a legendary art critic and historian, \u003ci\u003eOn Quality in Art\u003c\/i\u003e sheds invaluable light on drawings by artists ranging from Dürer, Raphael, Leonardo, Rubens, Rembrandt, Watteau, Degas, and van Gogh to Matisse, Picasso, and Marin.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJakob Rosenberg\u003c\/b\u003e (1893-1980) was a leading authority on Dutch and German art and the author of several books, including \u003ci\u003eRembrandt: Life and Work\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGreat Draughtsmen from Pisanello to Picasso\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eDutch Art and Architecture, 1600-1800\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 9.9 x 8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 15, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47459323281661,"sku":"9780691252148","price":57.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/LToNSPbfxZ9780691252148.webp?v=1777253333","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/on-quality-in-art-criteria-of-excellence-past-and-present-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
