Merrell Publishers , 2011. Hardcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. 9781858945545 Bump to top corner of front board, book's contents are clean and bright, slight creasing to top rear edge of jacket. In this engaging new study, Christopher Masters celebrates the multiple roles of the window in ar t through five key themes, from the window as a status symbol to its use as a provider of physical and spiritual illumination; from its employment as a literal window on the world outside the confines of a room to its function as a mirror, reflecting the emotions of the artist or the individuals depicted; and finally to the immense architectural variety of windows that animate interior and exterior scenes throughout Western painting. With superb reproductions of 90 works by major artists from Giotto to Banksy, and spirited analysis of the paintings' meanings, this is a remarkable exploration of an important but hither to neglected subject in art history. 192 pages.
