Velazquez: the Technique of Genius
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Yale University Press
- Publish date: 12/01/1998
The book begins with an introduction to Velazquez's life and the technical means he employed, including pigments, canvases, and binding media. In a fascinating analysis of thirty works by Velazquez that span his entire career, the authors then examine how the artist devised the techniques to express his ideas and how these changed over time. More than two hundred photographs of details of Velazquez's paintings vividly demonstrate how the artist realized his vision of man and nature through a highly allusive, economical manner of painting. This pathbreaking exploration of Velazquez's technical achievement reveals as never before the miracle of the creative process of one of the world's great masters.
