Ultramarine blue or azure blue, cobalt blue or Prussian blue... Handling all the nuances offered by natural or synthetic pigments, of vegetable or mineral origin, artists have gradually made blue one of their best allies to paint the distant and the sky, the air and the cold, silence and melancholy, the divine and the kings...
From Giotto to Yves Klein, from Bosch to Vermeer and from Leonardo da Vinci to Van Gogh, here is a history of Western painting revisited... in blue!
The original form of this boxed set allows you to dive into the heart of painting to discover the role of the color blue in the creation of artists. Accompanied by an explanatory booklet with an introduction and commentary on the works, this "accordion" book, all in images, displays some fifty works, in groups, in detail, in close-ups.
In French.
