| Sumari: | Authenticity and conservation: an introduction -- The cult of authenticity -- Authenticity, monuments and the international charters -- Different approaches to authenticity -- The ancient old world -- The ethnographic and the authentic -- Considerations of Mediaeval authenticity -- The European Renaissance and beyond -- From the Baroque to the early twentieth century -- The modern, postmodern and contemporary -- Some final thoughts and reflections. This book presents a detailed account of authenticity in the visual arts from the Palaeolithic to the postmodern. The restoration of works of art can alter the perception of authenticity, and may result in the creation of fakes and forgeries. These interactions set the stage for the subject of this book, which initially examines the conservation perspective, then continues with a detailed discussion of what "authenticity" means, and the philosophical background. Included are several case studies that discuss conceptual, aesthetic, and material authenticity of ancient and modern art in the contexts of restoration and forgery. -- from back cover |
