Painting & paintings

Hardcover. In premodern China, elite painters used imagery not to mirror the world around them, but to evoke unfathomable experience. Considering their art alongside the philosophical traditions that inform it, this title explores the 'nonobject' - a notion exemplified by paintings that do not seek to represent observable surroundings.

Paperback. Benjamin Binstock revolutionises how we think about Vermeer's work and life.

What remains is the paintings themselves as well as some historical information and surmise. Num Pages: 456 pages, 133 black & white illustrations, 91 colour illustrations.
