Zorzi da Castelfranco, known as Giorgione: an artist who has so few
confirmed works attributed to him, and about whose life little is
known. Yet, after a career span of just over ten years, Giorgione
has achieved a fame that has remained unchanged over the centuries.
Starting from Giovanni Bellini's lessons on spirituality and
harmony between man and nature, and from the use of colour by
Giovan Battista Cima da Conegliano, the master from Castelfranco
offers a very particular synthesis of musical lyricism, connecting
bodies and landscape with a soft and dense light. This tonal
painting, set by Cima and Bellini, becomes with Giorgione the
language of initiation of the formidable brood protagonist of the
great Venetian 16th century, the season of Palma il Vecchio,
Sebastiano del Piombo and Tiziano Vecellio.
This book gathers the latest advances, innovations, and
applications in the field of innovative biosystems engineering for
sustainable agriculture, forestry and food production. Focusing on
the challenges of implementing sustainability in various contexts
in the fields of biosystems engineering, it shows how the research
has addressed the sustainable use of renewable and non-renewable
resources. It also presents possible solutions to help achieve
sustainable production. The Mid-Term Conference of the Italian
Association of Agricultural Engineering (AIIA) is part of a series
of conferences, seminars and meetings that the AIIA organizes,
together with other public and private stakeholders, to promote the
creation and dissemination of new knowledge in the sector. The
contributions included in the book were selected by means of a
rigorous peer-review process, and offer an extensive and
multidisciplinary overview of interesting solutions in the field of
innovative biosystems engineering for sustainable agriculture.

The series Advances in Polymer Science presents critical reviews of
the present and future trends in polymer and biopolymer science. It
covers all areas of research in polymer and biopolymer science
including chemistry, physical chemistry, physics, material science.
The thematic volumes are addressed to scientists, whether at
universities or in industry, who wish to keep abreast of the
important advances in the covered topics. Advances in Polymer
Science enjoys a longstanding tradition and good reputation in its
community. Each volume is dedicated to a current topic, and each
review critically surveys one aspect of that topic, to place it
within the context of the volume. The volumes typically summarize
the significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years and discuss
them critically, presenting selected examples, explaining and
illustrating the important principles, and bringing together many
important references of primary literature. On that basis, future
research directions in the area can be discussed. Advances in
Polymer Science volumes thus are important references for every
polymer scientist, as well as for other scientists interested in
polymer science - as an introduction to a neighboring field, or as
a compilation of detailed information for the specialist. Review
articles for the individual volumes are invited by the volume
editors. Single contributions can be specially commissioned.
Readership: Polymer scientists, or scientists in related fields
interested in polymer and biopolymer science, at universities or in
industry, graduate students

Titian is the artist who best illustrates the revolution and
triumph of colour, and hence the very art of the 16th century and
beyond. The work of Titian (c. 1490-1576) represents the point of
arrival for a whole pictorial tradition: his early emphasis on
colour developed into the art of a mature and then elderly painter
seeking to explore night and darkness, to dim hues, and to push the
use of liquid and dusky tones to the very limit. A prolific painter
and the head of a well-organised workshop, Titian was at the same
time capable of perfectly meeting new tastes. By renewing and
setting the standard for the official images and aesthetics of the
ruling class of his day, he became the first truly European artist,
praised to high heaven by his admirers. Particularly revealing is
Ludovico Dolce's panegyric: 'the greatness and the power of
Michelangelo, the sweetness and beauty of Raphael and the very
colours of Nature herself'. Highly sought after by collectors,
disputed by royal courts and pontiffs, the master from Cadore
created works that are now on display in museums across the world.
This volume exceptionally brings together some of Titian's greatest
masterpieces, including his large altarpieces, in such a way as to
illustrate the whole span of his career.
Fascinating insight into two of the giants in the history of
Western art. The exhibition Mantegna and Bellini runs at the
National Gallery, London, from 1 October, 2018 to 27 January 2019.
Giovanni Bellini, 'one of the great Italian poets' in the words of
Roberto Longhi, and Andrea Mantegna, he who 'sculpted [the image]
alive and real in his painting' in the sonnet by Ulisse degli
Aleotti, were two giants in the history of Western art - extremely
distant in character, certainly, yet connected by deep family ties.
Nicolosia - Jacopo Bellini's daughter and thus half-sister to
Giovanni - married Mantegna in 1453. This marriage engendered one
of the most fascinating pictorial dialogues of the Quattrocento, as
they both developed the motif of The Presentation of Jesus at the
Temple. Now we see this pair of works exhibited side-by-side for
the very first time, half a millennium after they were painted.
This volume narrates an extraordinary event, down to the last
detail, through a riveting analysis of the paintings themselves and
of the relationship between the two artists.
