《拉维尼亚·丰塔纳：开拓者，规则打破者》是二十多年来首部研究拉维尼亚·丰塔纳作品的专著，也是首部聚焦于她引人注目的肖像画的著作。本书探索了这位文艺复兴时期女性艺术家的迷人传记，以及使她成为西欧首位在商业上取得成功的宫廷或修道院之外的女性艺术家的文化环境。本书汇集了关于丰塔纳及其同时代人的多项学术研究成果，为她的艺术生涯提供了背景，并探讨了当前关于这位画家的学术研究中涉及较少的领域，包括她工作室的实践情况。

 

本书聚焦于丰塔纳以肖像画而闻名的艺术成就，讲述了普遍为人熟知的故事——关于家庭纽带、兄弟姐妹间的竞争、订婚、婚礼、出生和死亡。本书由艾菲·布莱迪撰写，并得到了研究丰塔纳的顶尖学者巴贝特·博恩以及文艺复兴时尚领域的首要专家琼奎尔·奥赖利的贡献。这本引人入胜的著作深入探索了丰塔纳的世界，以及她是如何在文艺复兴时期意大利这个男性主导的世界中开创成功事业的。

 

The first monograph to examine Lavinia Fontana’s work in over two decades, and the first to focus on her striking portraits

 

Lavinia Fontana: Trailblazer, Rule Breaker explores this female Renaissance artist’s fascinating biography and the cultural climate that enabled her to become the first woman artist in Western Europe to gain commercial success beyond the confines of a court or a convent. Bringing together several strands of scholarship on Fontana and her contemporaries, it provides context to her career and examines areas underrepresented in current scholarship on the painter, including information on her workshop practice.

 

Focusing on the portraiture for which she was renowned, Lavinia Fontana tells stories that will be universally familiar—tales of family bonds, sibling rivalries, engagements, weddings, births, and deaths. Written by Aoife Brady, with contributions from one of the leading scholars on Fontana, Babette Bohn, and a foremost expert on Renaissance fashion, Jonquil O’Reilly, this engaging book explores Fontana’s world and how she forged a successful career in the male-dominated world of Renaissance Italy.
