cm 15 x 21, iv-102 pp. con 7 ill. f.t. di cui 6 a colori. Rilegato (Hardcover). Pocket Library of Studies in Art 41 La ?Tempesta? di Giorgione ha rappresentato il pi? discussso emigma nella storia dell?arte, con oltre cinquanta differenti interpretazioni principalmente basate su antiche fonti letterarie che sono state confrontate ? in modo poco convincente ? con pochissimi elementi del dipinto. La "Teogonia" di Esiodo, ben conosciuta a Venezia quando fu fatto il dipinto, li spiega pi? o meno tutti ? animati e inanimati ? avendo l?artista tradotto alla lettera le parole del poeta in immagini visuali. Giorgione?s ?Tempesta? has been the most discussed enigma in the history of art, with over fifty different interpretations, based largely on ancient literary sources which were compared, not very convincingly, with very few elements of the painting. Hesiod?s "Theogony", well known in Venice when the painting was made, explains more or less all of them, animate and inanimate, for the artist translated the poet?s words literally into visual images.
