| schema:abstract | "Summary: "Looking for lines" describes the search that started in the eighteenth century by art historians, critics and esthetical philosophers after the role and use of lines in art and art history. In this search for the line the misunderstanding came to light that the current ideas held of the use and function of the line did not correspond with the approaches in the past. As for instance that the status of an art work must be measured by the qualities of its compostion by the abstract use of line and colour. The author treats the role and influences of this way of thinking on the role of esthetical judgements in the past three centuries, with special attention to mannerism." |
