《埃尔·格列柯的意大利时期：艺术与宗教图像》首次以专著形式深入研究了这位早期现代艺术史上最受误解人物的早期生涯。

 

约1541年出生的多米尼克斯·特奥托科普洛斯，其艺术生涯始于克里特岛的圣像画创作。以"埃尔·格列柯"之名闻名于世的他，虽因西班牙时期的画作享誉世界——这些作品自1614年艺术家逝世以来始终引发狂热崇拜与尖锐批评——但其1567至1576年间在威尼斯与罗马度过的近十年关键成长期，直至本书才获得系统探讨。

 

安德鲁·卡斯珀通过对这段意大利岁月的剖析，不仅使格列柯的整体艺术生涯得到准确解读，更揭示了特伦特会议后宗教绘画领域的动荡格局。

 

《Art and the Religious Image in El Greco’s Italy》 is the first book-length examination of the early career of one of the early modern period’s most notoriously misunderstood figures.

 

Born around 1541, Domenikos Theotokopoulos began his career as an icon painter on the island of Crete. He is best known, under the name “El Greco,” for the works he created while in Spain, paintings that have provoked both rapt admiration and scornful disapproval since his death in 1614. But the nearly ten years he spent in Venice and Rome, from 1567 to 1576, have remained underexplored until now.

 

Andrew Casper’s examination of this period allows us to gain a proper understanding of El Greco’s entire career and reveals much about the tumultuous environment for religious painting after the Council of Trent.
