Description: Painting and Devotion in Golden Age Iberia : Luis De Morales, Hardcover by Andrews, Jean (EDT), ISBN 1786836025, ISBN-13 9781786836021, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Luis de Morales, known as El Divino because of his intensely religious subject matter, is the most significant and recognizable Spanish painter of the mid-sixteenth century, the high point of the Spanish and Portuguese counter-reformations. He spent almost his entire working life in the Spanish city of Badajoz, not far from the border with Portugal and did not travel outside of a small area around that city, covering both sides of the border. The social, political and cultural environment of Badajoz and its environs is crucial for a thorough understanding of his output. This book provides that context in detail, looking at literature and liturgical theatre, the situation of converted Jews and Muslims, the presence of Erasmianism, Lutheranism and Illuminism (Alumbradismo), devotional writing for laypeople and proximity to the Bragana ducal palace in Portugal as a means of explaining this most enigmatic of painters.
