A new and accessible way to understand art, looking at the love affairs that inspired our greatest masterpieces
Discover the love affairs that inspired art's greatest masterpieces.
Whether in the throes of passion, enduring the pain of an unrequited love or basking in the joy of a wonderfully supportive friendship, this book explores how love influenced artists and the work they created.
Beautifully illustrated with full-colour photographs of more than 70 artworks, this guide looks at how artists have painted, sketched and modelled their lovers, and how the theme of love has found its way into an array of subjects - from landscapes to still-life and self-portraits.
Artists include: Caravaggio, Georgia O'Keefe, Sarah Bernhardt, Picasso, Rembrandt, Frida Kahlo, Tamara de Lempicka, Clifford Prince-King, Chagall, Lotte Laserstein and Niki de Saint Phalle.
