Produktbeschreibung
The Analysis of Beauty is a book written by William Hogarth, first published in 1753. This 1908 edition is a reprint of the original work. Hogarth was an English painter, engraver, and satirist who lived during the 18th century. In this book, he explores the concept of beauty in art and nature, and provides a detailed analysis of the principles that underlie it.The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a theoretical discussion of beauty, in which Hogarth argues that beauty is not a fixed and immutable quality, but rather a dynamic and evolving one. He suggests that beauty is the result of a complex interplay between the artist's skill, the subject matter, and the viewer's perception.The second part of the book is a practical guide to the analysis of beauty in art. Hogarth provides a detailed analysis of various works of art, including paintings, sculptures, and architecture. He examines the use of line, form, color, and composition, and shows how these elements contribute to the overall beauty of the work.The Analysis of Beauty is a seminal work in the field of aesthetics, and has had a profound influence on the development of art theory and criticism. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of art or the philosophy of aesthetics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
