Stephan Koja. Raphael and the Madonna
The Virgin Mary features in more Renaissance paintings than any other subject, yet Raphael’s Sistine Madonna towers over them all in artistic and theological significance. A groundbreaking accomplishment, Raphael’s Madonna breaks through clouds, flanked by saints, while two famously wistful cherubim look up from an unseen altar. In Raphael and the Madonna, Stephan Koja illuminates the pivotal place of this masterwork in the aesthetic and religious debates of the sixteenth century.Like the Renaissance itself, whose spontaneity owes a debt to medieval artistry, so Raphael’s Madonna has humble beginnings. Raphael attempted to paint the Virgin countless times before achieving his magnum opus. Attending to these early portraits, Raphael and the Madonna traces the evolution of Raphael’s idiosyncratic style alongside the continuing popularity of early Renaissance masters, such as Botticelli and Mantegna. Part critical biography and part art history, this book offers a new perspective on Raphael’s career as well as on the Italian Renaissance at large.

McCormack Catherine Women in the Picture. Women, Art and the Power of Looking
A bold reconsideration of women in art - from the 'Old Masters' to the posts of Instagram influencers. A perfect pin-up, a damsel in distress, a saintly mother, a femme fatale… Women's identity has long been stifled by a limited set of archetypes, found everywhere in pictures from art history's classics to advertising, while women artists have been overlooked and held back from shaping more empowering roles. In this impassioned book, art historian Catherine McCormack asks us to look again at what these images have told us to value, opening up our most loved images - from those of Titian and Botticelli to Picasso and the Pre-Raphaelites. She also shows us how women artists - from Berthe Morisot to Beyonce, Judy Chicago to Kara Walker - have offered us new ways of thinking about women's identity, sexuality, race and power. Women in the Picture gives us new ways of seeing the art of the past and the familiar images of today so that we might free women from these restrictive roles and embrace the breadth of women's vision.

Koja Stephan Raphael and the Madonna
In the art of the Italian Renaissance, the subject of the Madonna with Child was chosen for pictures more frequently than any other. Raphael's paintings are regarded as some of the most innovative compositions to this day, 500 years after his death. Their groundbreaking significance is illuminated in this volume through comparisons with other principal works of the period, including those by Botticelli and Mantegna. Raphael's Sixtine Madonna is one of the most famous paintings in art history. The book traces how the artist arrived at this pioneering composition as well as the theological statement behind the picture and the original solutions that he found in his early Madonna paintings. Comparisons with Raphael's contemporaries in Bologna, Florence, Mantua and Venice show clearly the preferred picture types of the era as well as Raphael's highly individual pictorial language.
