{"product_id":"salvator-rosa-paint-and-performance","title":"Salvator Rosa: Paint and Performance","description":"\u003cp\u003eWitchcraft, divination and violent encounters occupy the darker reaches of Salvator Rosa’s art. Helen Langdon’s biography places these subjects within the ambitions of a painter who was also a poet and actor, and who wanted his work to be taken seriously as a form of thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book follows Rosa’s public identity, his efforts to reach an audience and his response to the intellectual life of seventeenth-century Italy. Its 65 illustrations support an account that connects unusual imagery with the developing taste for the sublime. This is a particularly close fit for Dark Gloomy Art: a study of how unsettling pictures were made, understood and presented long before modern horror acquired its familiar forms. Rosa’s performances and ambitions give the paintings a human setting as compelling as their atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor \/ editor: Helen Langdon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Reaktion Books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9781789145731\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied to order, subject to availability.
