Description: HARDCOVER BOOKIMAGEN y MENTALIDAD LOS SIGLOS DEL BARROCO Y LA ESTAMPA DEVOCIONAL EN NAVARAThe engraving on paper of past centuries, and even more if it is a devotional engraving, seems to be very far from the cultural interests of our society today. It is necessary to recognize that, except for a group of initiates, the engraving is unattractive to the majority due to its apparent lack of color when compared to painting, and above all because its reading becomes impenetrable. It seems evident that the development of contemporary art and the imposition in all fields of graphic techniques have helped to bring people's sensibility closer to the field of engraving. This approach is sure to greatly contribute to the reading of this book: Image and Mentality. The centuries of the Baroque and the devotional stamp in Navarra. The reader who enters it, will find a fascinating world of great depth interwoven with images and ideas that appears reconstructed in an almost magical way.The book is the fruit of a personal passion, that of its author, Professor Fernández Gracia, born almost in childhood in that initiatory excursion to Veruela in which, as he writes, he bought his first engraving in exchange for his snack, and followed later in the university courses on the Engraving with exit to the workshop of the great engraver Antonio Eslava in the Recoleta square of San José. In the visit he showed in a practical way a staging session accompanied by enthusiastic and poetic words. The definitive impulse for his incipient interest will receive him from José Javier Uranga, collector and connoisseur of Navarre devotional engraving, and Jesus Arraiza, pioneers in the valuation of these engravings that were then burned in the fire or were stowed in arks and corners.
