The first goal of the workshop was to create a pool of master artisan-printers in the United States to revive the medium of fine art lithography.

Like illuminations and fireworks, ephemeral artworks made of food were not well documented and were challenging to describe because they were perishable and thus quickly consumed or destroyed. In times before photography and cookbooks, there were neither literary models nor a repertoire of conventional images for how food and its preparation should be explained or depicted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough made for consumption, food could also be a work of art, both as a special attraction and as an expression of power. Formal occasions and spontaneous celebrations drew communities together, while special foods and seasonal menus revived ancient legends, evoking memories and recalling shared histories, values, and tastes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on books, prints, and scrolls that document festival arts, elaborate banquets, and street feasts, the essays in this volume examine the mythic themes and personas employed to honor and celebrate rulers; the methods, materials, and wares used to prepare, depict, and serve food; and how foods such as sugar were transformed to express political goals or accomplishments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book was published on the occasion of an exhibition at the Getty Research Institute from October 13, 2015, to March 23, 2016. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMarcia Reed is the former chief curator and associate director for special collections and exhibitions at the Getty Research Institute.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Accessibly written, well-documented, and generously illustrated…”\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cem\u003eChoice\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e192 pages \u003cbr\u003e9 x 10 inches\u003cbr\u003e91 color \u2028illustrations\u003cbr\u003eISBN 978-1-60606-454-2\u003cbr\u003ehardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u2028\u003cbr\u003eGetty Publications\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Getty Research Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2015\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GETTY TRUST PUBLICATIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":3599882501,"sku":"9781606064542","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8502\/products\/9781606064542.jpg?v=1600798822"},{"product_id":"malibu-honey","title":"Malibu Honey","description":"\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocal bees gathered nectar from flowers on Point Dume and the Santa Monica mountains to create this flavorful raw honey. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Made in Malibu, California\u003cbr\u003e- 12 oz. jar\u003cbr\u003e- Item #: MALHON\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MALIBU HONEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":6363520517,"sku":"MALHON","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8502\/files\/MalibuHoney.jpg?v=1762799789"},{"product_id":"16th-century-flora-and-fauna-bookmark","title":"16th Century Flora and Fauna Bookmark","description":"This richly detailed gold-plated bookmark is inspired by an illuminated manuscript in the collection of the J.

Bell, for example, coated plate glass with films of material that alter the way the light is absorbed, reflected, and transmitted, while Kauffman employed a process usually reserved for commercial signs for his work. McCracken coated plywood with fiberglass then spray-painted it with countless layers of automotive paints, and Irwin spray-painted discs of hammered aluminum or vacuum-formed plastics.

Gracienne embraces her elderly father goodbye as she converts to Christianity and embarks on her new life in Europe. To the right, Gillion's entourage readies for the journey ahead. The distance they must travel is suggested by the winding paths, steep cliffs, and the twisting river that lead into an expansive landscape. Although the castle and much of the clothing would have been familiar to medieval viewers, the artist also incorporated exotic references that would have captured the imagination of the audience, such as the camel to the far right and the alluring turbans and scimitars of the members of the Egyptian court. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n","brand":"DAVID HOWELL \u0026 COMPANY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":26283650121,"sku":"BKS6503","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8502\/products\/BKS6503.jpg?v=1593142787"},{"product_id":"refashioning-and-redress-conserving-and-displaying-dress-978-1606065112","title":"Refashioning and Redress: Conserving and Displaying Dress","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdited by Mary M.
