In the spring of 1790 two of the most gifted artists in Europe met in Rome and became fast friends, sharing their views on art, visiting the city’s ancient sites and making trips to the opera together. The Swiss history painter Angelica Kauffman and the French portraitist Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun are no longer household names in the early twenty-first century but were much-fêted celebrities in the late eighteenth. Franny Moyle uses their meeting in the eternal city as the point of departure for a lavishly illustrated 'life and times’ biography of two brilliant but neglected women artists.

Esistono periodi straordinari durante i quali, in un unico luogo e tempo, in un solo campo del sapere, si succedono e si affiancano così tanti uomini geniali da far gridare al miracolo. È il caso dei poeti tragici e lirici nella Grecia del quinto secolo avanti Cristo, dei filosofi tedeschi del Settecento e dell'Ottocento. E, ovviamente, dei pittori italiani del Rinascimento. In poco più di due secoli, una fioritura mai vista prima di talenti rivoluzionò la pittura, creando una nuova visione del mondo che suscita, ancora oggi, stupore, estasi, meraviglia.

Es curioso comprobar que si bien la arquitectura románica se desarrolla con anterioridad en la región pirenaica, la escultura toma, en cambio, la ventaja en Galicia y León desde el siglo XI. Cierto es, sin embargo, que los más antiguos dinteles y capiteles fechados parecen ser pirenaicos, pero la gran actividad de los escultores pirenaicos no culmina hasta el siglo XII, cuando ya gallegos, castellanos y leoneses habían llenado sus iglesias de hermosos relieves de piedra.

La agitación socioeconómica provoca una reacción escultórica contra los estilos anteriores dando lugar a un nuevo naturalismo que busca de nuevo su inspiración en el clasicismo renacentista. Rodin es el autor más representativo de este nuevo estilo, pero hay muchos otros autores, como se puede ver en esta breve colección que ahora les presentamos.

Desde los últimos años del siglo XV, la España de los Reyes Católicos conoce el resurgir de la vitalidad nacional. La victoria política deja también su impronta en lo cultural. Se abren las puertas a todo lo que signifique influjo exterior para asimilarlo, pero sin olvidar lo propiamente hispánico.

Nació en Fuente de Cantos, provincia de Badajoz, allá por el año 1598, a muy corto espacio de tiempo de otros "intocables", como Ribera o Velázquez, que nacen también al filo del 1600. Esta fecha es una de las más notables forjadoras de artistas, no sólo en España, sino también en el extranjero. Nombres como Rembrandt, Vermeer, Poussin, etc, aparecen en el mundo por las mismas fechas, es decir, son hombres de la misma generación. La generación de 1600 es una de las primeras generaciones de la Europa moderna, que es casi como decir de la Europa barroca.

El término Renacimiento es demasiado amplio -y no poco confuso- a la hora de precisar los límites del fenómeno pictórico. Para unos el Renacimiento es una continuación del arte gótico; para otros es, sin embargo, una reacción contra él; unas veces se habla de Renacimiento con un sentido temporal (siglos XIV a XVI), otras prefiere entenderse como norma "espacial" (Italia y Flandes). Estas distintas interpretaciones, que conviven y alientan en el complejo vocablo, nos anuncian la única cualidad clara y distinta del Renacimiento: su falta de claridad.

En la Historia del Arte Español, como en la de cualquier país, lo más difícil, y para muchos lo más fácil, es recoger una serie de nombres, estilos, figuras, etc. que estudiar. Difícil porque no se sabe quienes son los mejores, ya que hablando de estilos artísticos es muy complicado llegar a determinar cuál es la belleza por excelencia, cuando ésta es algo subjetivo de cada espectador que la contempla y teniendo en cuenta que entran en litigio muchos elementos -y no todos objetivos ni igualmente valorables- que hacen recaer una mayor responsabilidad al efectuar esa valoración.
