Description

We're baaacckk! Mandolyn Wilson Rosen and I have returned for Part 2 to finish our report on Giorgio Vasari's "Lives of the Artists," a combo-bio of Florentine High Renaissance artists from the 1580's. Pull up a carved high-backed chair, grab yourself a goblet of watered-down wine and join us for the continuation of our journey back to this fabled time in Italian art.




In Part 2, we cover Sandro Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Jacopo da Pontormo, Michelangelo, and Titian (with some discussion of Albrecht Durer as well). In the Boticelli section, Mandy references this article by Alexxa Gotthardt on Artsy: https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-botticellis-birth-venus-challenged-depictions-nude-art




Please visit our sponsor, The New York Studio School, to enroll for their wonderful Marathon courses (by Sept 8) or for over a dozen different 11 week Evening & Weekend Courses (by Sept 18) at NYSS.org




Find your own copy of "Lives of the Artists" by Giorgio Vasari at your public library or at most online bookstores. The 1991 English Translation by Julia and Peter Bondanella includes the lone woman artist in Vasari: Sculptor Madonna Properzia de Rossi. Earlier translations often exclude her, so keep an eye out if buying used!
