Description: English with French translations. Condition is very good. Pages are intact and not marred by notes orhighlighting. The spine and binding are still tight and square, but glue is old and is starting to degrade. Some visible shelfwear to cover. Flights of fancy and fear, ecstatic highs, dreadful falls, and beckoning skies: these are the images British filmmaker Peter Greenaway collects and dissects in Flying out of This World, part of a series developed by the Louvre and devoted to innovative writing on the visual arts.As guest curator, Greenaway selected from the Louvre's collection of European prints and drawings masterpieces that illustrate the human longing for flight. Greenaway's text, a compilation of brief commentaries that combine description, allusion, and interpretation, illuminate the images as depictions of flight desired and denied. Including works by Redon, Goya, Brueghel, Michelangelo, Mantegna, Rubens, Poussin, and Delacroix, this volume offers a combination of literary and visual art, of sight and insight.
