Brown is famed for referencing both the giants of Western painting and facets of popular culture, wrestling each from their assigned contexts.\u003cbr\u003eThis volume provides an in-depth look at one of her most conceptually rich paintings yet. The titular work, \u003ci\u003eThe Triumph of Death\u003c\/i\u003e, is colossal, spanning multiple panels, and conveys the figure of Death riding roughshod over a town and its residents. Inspired by a 1446 fresco housed in the Palazzo Abatellis in Palermo, Italy, Brown's momentous piece testifies to her ongoing fascination with death. With an introduction by Sylvain Bellenger and newly commissioned texts--as well as a set of related, previously unseen drawings--the book offers comprehensive analysis on this extraordinary work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cecily Brown\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1909932752\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781909932753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ridinghouse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/21\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.30h x 9.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Cecily Brown","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44132729028863,"sku":"9781909932753","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_27b9a251-6e77-4bf4-beec-01c7b2333e00.jpg?v=1687481949","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cecily-brown-cecily-brown-9781909932753","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
