Le vin à travers la peinture

Philippe de Rothschild

0/5 ( ratings)

The world of fine wine, celebrated in 150 contemporary or classical paintings by artists such as Brueghel, Picasso, Caravaggio, Magritte, Renoir, Vermeer, Chagall and still others... The texts, poetry and illustrations contained in this beautiful album reveal all the diversity, colourful associations and richness of the subject. The traditions and emotions that inspired the artists are explored in detail, with special attention accorded to explaining the hidden symbolism and omnipresence of wine in the history of painting: paintings which evoke both the pleasures and the sorrows of wine, but whether echoing the joyous clamour of drinking- parties or the intriguing silence of still-lifes, each illustration represents a new step in the fascinating and unique voyage of wine across time and art!
