{"product_id":"14364-giovanni-segantini-18581899","title":"Giovanni Segantini 1858-1899","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe artist Giovanni Segantini was a leading member of the European avant-garde of his day. He was hailed as an \u0026#39;innovator\u0026#39;, a \u0026#39;prophet\u0026#39; and a \u0026#39;revolutionary\u0026#39;: in an obituary one critic called him a \u0026quot;Secession in his own right.\u0026quot; His work was to be seen in public and private collections alike, and had a major effect on art in Europe at the time. Even the Futurists cited him as a role-model. At present there are no monographs of Segantini in print. This publication will fill this gap and offers the public a new opportunity to see important paintings and drawings by this artist, including his famous triptych Werden - Sein - Vergehen (La Vita - La Natura - La Morte). With an in-depth essay on the artist\u0026#39;s oeuvre - from his early genre paintings, influenced by Realism, right up to his symbolic depictions of Nature in a Divisionist style - this publication is an up-to-date, comprehensive monograph on Giovanni Segantini.
