The Sublime Artist'S Studio: Nabokov And Painting,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In his youth, Vladimir Nabokov aspired to become a landscape artist. Even though he eventually realized that his true vocation was literature, his keen sense of visual detail, nuanced perception of color, and vast knowledge of the fine arts are all manifest in his literary works, which abound with painters and paintings, real and imaginary, as well as with magnificent pictorial imagery rendered in a verbal medium. The relation of the visual arts to Nabokov's work is the subject of The Sublime Artist's Studio, an indepth and detailed study of one of the most significant facets of this modern master's oeuvre. Gavriel Shapiro pursues his inquiry throughout Nabokov's literary legacy poetry, short prose, novels, plays, memoirs, lectures, essays, interviews, and letters. What is the import of Nabokov's lifelong fascination with the Old Masters? How does landscape function in Nabokov's writings? What was the author's relationship to contemporary artists? By addressing these and other questions, while examining Nabokov's references and allusions to the visual arts and to particular works and artists, Shapiro is able to reveal the centrality of painting to Nabokov's belles lettres. His book offers a new and promising approach to one of the twentieth century's most celebrated writers.
