Overview
"From an elegant table laden with ripening fruit by Claude Monet to a colorful contemporary confection by Wayne Thiebaud, Feasting lavishly illustrates humanity's love affair with food. From the Baroque period to the present day, through many cultures, mediums, and styles, this volume traces artists' fascination with food and the fine art of dining." "Truly a celebration of artistic and epicurean delights, this lavish visual feast features masterpieces from the outstanding collections of The Art Institute of Chicago by Rubens, Monet, Renoir, Peale, Moillon, van Gogh, Cezanne, Bonnard, Demuth, Harnett, Chardin, and Albright, among others." "The author, James Yood, has written a lively and entertaining introduction to the history of food as a subject in art - both as sustenance and as ritual, illuminating food's cultural significance as well as its artistic attraction. Each color plate is accompanied by an extensive and informative caption that captures the historic as well as the artistic moment." "This is the quintessential gift book for art lovers, food lovers, and anyone who appreciates a good meal!"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
