Zusammenfassung:The colors of the Virgin : Romanesque polychrome wood sculptures in Italy and a question about azurite / Grazia Maria Fachechi -- Faith, spectacle and the polychromed processional figures of Luis Antonio de los Arcos and Luisa Roldán / Catherine Hall-van den Elsen -- More than wood : sculpture and blasphemy in seventeenth-century New Spain / Brett Lazer
"This book focuses on the techniques and materials of polychromy used in early modern Europe and the Americas from 1200 to 1800. Taking a trans-cultural approach, the book studies the production of polychrome sculptures, panels, and altarpieces, as well as colored terracotta and painted representations of marble and stone. The book includes chapters on treatises and contracts that reveal specific use of pigments, distribution of workshops, collaborations between specialized artists, and artistic programs centered on the use of color as an agent. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, art conservation, early modern history, sculpture, material culture, European studies, and transatlantic artistic interactions."
