Sobre este artículo
Madison: University of Wisconsin Press, 1943. Classic survey of Spanish art, "from the Catalan murals of the twelfth century through Francisco Goya." Hagen, born & educated in Germany, came to the University of Wisconsin as a visiting scholar in 1924, and returned permanently the next year, founding the university's art history department and serving as its director for the next 23 years. Here, in a "completely rewritten" version of a book first published seven years earlier, he discusses the overall 'Spanish style', temperament ("racial prediliction for what is stark weird, and gruesome"), and milieu; and the historical phases and more recent iterations of Spanish art; of note are observations on the works of Ribalta, Huguet, Bermejo, Master Alfonso, & Martorell. This copy was a gift to his second wife, charmingly inscribed with a humorous poem about his work on the book during a vacation, signed "Ockyboy". Three years after Hagen's death, his widow gave the book to a young art history professor, Frank Horlbeck, who was himself to chair the art history department some years later. Unique! Hardcover in jacket, as pictured. Light wear to book; jacket lightly rubbed with some tanning, scuffing & chips to spine; light cockling to the first & last few pages, from no obvious source; top edge spotted/foxed. Text clean; xix, blank, 279 pages; indexes, frontispiece & 99 small b/w reproductions of artworks. . Revised Second Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Small Quarto.
