内容説明

The National Gallery's collection of European paintings from the 13th to the early-20th century is one of the richest and most comprehensive in the world. The complete illustrated catalogue provides concise and up-to-date information on every work owned by the National Gallery and on permanent or long-term loan. There are over 2000 entries, each of which includes the title of the picture, its date, attribution, accession number and available information on support, medium and dimensions. The text describes the subject matter of every work, its origin, function and provenance. All the works are illustrated, the majority in colour; reconstructions of altarpieces and paintings too large to be represented clearly in the body of the Catalogue are reproduced in greater detail at the back. Inscriptions are transcribed and translated. Each artist is given a brief biography and a bibliography at the end of the Catalogue lists major sources for further reading. A comprehensive index provides easy access to the information found in the Catalogue and enables readers to refer quickly to particular artists and paintings.

内容説明

The complete illustrated catalogue is available in two versions, as a printed book and as a package of CD-ROM and book combined. The CD-ROM contains the complete text of the catalogue with high resolution illustrations of every work owned by the National Gallery and on permanent or long-term loan. The indexes and search facilities on disc provide art historians, picture researchers and the interested general public with in-depth access to one of the world's most important collections of European painting from the 13th to the 20th century. In addition to the descriptions of works and biographies of artists, each work has an associated set of key words relating to general subjects (eg children, angels, winter), specific subjects (eg Samson, Mary Magdalen), and picture types (eg portrait, landscape, still life, altarpiece). The artist index includes aliases and alternative alphabetizations (eg Van Gogh under v and g). The material is organized alphabetically by artist as in the book. In addition to a comprehensive bibliography of major studies of the collection, a bibliography (as a pop-up) is available for each painting. The illustrations are available in two sizes: a "thumbnail" - approximately the same size on screen as on the pages of the book - and a much larger blow-up for closer study. The blow-up images have a maximum dimension of 1500 x 1500 pixels - equivalent to a screen area of 20" by 20", enabling users to study every work in the Gallery's collection in greater detail than in other printed or electronic versions. As in the book, all but 300 of a total of more than 2200 illustrations are in colour. Users have facilities for downloading and printing small-scale images and text for personal use (with copyright notices).
