Lovers in Art Author: Bettina Schumann

ISBN: 9783791348186 Format: Hardcover Number Of Pages: 128 Published: 21 January 2013 Country of Publication: DE Dimensions (cm): 27.0 x 21.0 x 1.8 Description: Drawing on five centuries of artistic expression, this lushly illustrated and beautifully designed celebration of romance is the perfect keepsake for lovers young and old.

How many ways can you paint a kiss? Ask Picasso, Lichtenstein, Toulouse-Lautrec, Klimt, and Fragonard. Rediscover mythology's great love stories through the works of Botticelli, Correggio, Titian, and Canova. Meet ordinary and extraordinary couples in paintings by Kahlo, Van Eyck, Rubens, Rembrandt, Freud, and Rossetti.

These are just some of the bounty of artists collected in this glorious book, featuring brilliantly coloured reproductions and love-inspired writings. Organised to show the progression of love from first meeting to marriage, this exquisite volume travels the centuries through various artistic traditions. The stories these artists tell are as varied as the works themselves: sentimental, tragic, intellectual, ironic, sensual, and comic. For lovers of art, or just lovers, this book gloriously illustrates the endless facets of love.

Features 100 illustrations.
