Summary:

Am Beispiel der Kunstzentren Toledo, Valencia, Sevilla und Madrid o˜ffnet der Band den Blick auf Spaniens "Siglo de Oro", dessen Kunstproduktion untrennbar mit einem tiefgreifenden Wandel in Politik und Gesellschaft verbunden ist: Die spanische Kunst erreichte in einer Zeit ihren Ho˜hepunkt, in der das zuvor ma˜chtigste Land Europas mit dem kontinuierlichen Verlust seiner Macht konfrontiert war. Ko˜nig, Kirche und Adel jedoch verlangten nach Bildern, die den neuen Realita˜ten trotzen sollten. Das Buch ist eine formidable Einladung, diese bedeutende Epoche der europa˜ischen Kunstgeschichte durch erlesene Werke der Malerei, Bildhauerei und Zeichnung kennenzulernen.
This book is an introduction to the Spanish Golden Age that took place during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and showcases the diversity of Spanish art from this century in all its rich complexity.
