Segantini originally planned them for the 1900 Paris Exposition Universelle as a multimedia walk-through \"Engadine Panorama\" 722 feet long and sixty-feet feet high. He was forced to reduce the undertaking to three purely pictorial main paintings, which eventually remained unfinished due to the artist's premature death. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this richly illustrated book, Swiss art historian and Segantini-expert Juerg Albrecht traces the eventful genesis of this landmark work, drawing on previously untapped sources, and places it in the context of Alpine painting and the mass medium of the panorama. He offers a fresh perspective on one of the last major Symbolist works of the fin de si鐵le and sheds light also on Segantini's highly personal pantheism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Juerg Albrecht\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3039420720\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783039420728\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scheidegger and Spiess\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/25\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.66w x 0.87d","brand":"Juerg Albrecht","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44078799028479,"sku":"9783039420728","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c88e3be1-d1b4-4b8e-9683-b4028e628444.jpg?v=1685477586","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/giovanni-segantini-la-vita-la-juerg-albrecht-9783039420728","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
