Description: This book explores the life and career of German artist Raphael Mengs, a pivotal figure in 18th-century art history credited with helping to revive interest in the classical art of ancient Greece and Rome. The author delves into Mengs's artistic development, examining the influences that shaped his style and the key themes that preoccupied him throughout his career. The book also analyzes Mengs's theoretical writings on art, which remain influential to this day and provide valuable insights into his artistic philosophy. By examining Mengs's work within the broader context of 18th-century European art, the author demonstrates how Mengs's innovative approach challenged prevailing artistic conventions and paved the way for a new era in painting.
