THE NATIONAL GALLERIES OF SCOTLAND

(P/B) CUT AND PASTE
Collage is one of the most popular and pervasive of all art-forms, yet this is the first historical survey book ever published on the subject. Featuring over 200 works, ranging from the 1500s to the present day, it offers an entirely new approach. Hitherto, collage has been presented as a twentieth-century phenomenon, linked in particular to Pablo Picasso and Cubism in the years just before the First World War. In Cut and Paste: 400 Years of Collage, we trace its origins back to books and prints of the 1500s, through to the boom in popular...

(P/B) GAUGUIN'S VISION
When Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) painted The Vision after the Sermon (Jacob and the Angel) in the summer of 1888 he was a mature artist who had travelled, exhibited and worked in a variety of media. Few paintings have given rise to more art historical analysis and critique, more speculation, admiration or recrimination. This book re-examines the painting The Vision after the Sermon, and brings together works by Gauguin, his mentors such as Paul Cezanne and Edgar Degas, and younger contemporaries including Emile Bernard, Paul Serusier, Maurice...

A large group of drawings by Italian artists, many of which were owned by Rubens and extensively transformed by him, are illustrated. These works show how Rubens's dialogue with Italian art went far beyond mere...
