The Artist Grows Old by Philip Sohm

How does the artist's self-conception change in old age? This study considers some of the greatest artists of Renaissance and Baroque Italy and their experiences of aging. It investigates how art critics, collectors, biographers and fellow artists dealt with old painters, and what mental landscapes preconditioned responses to art by the elderly.
Philip Sohm is professor, Department of Fine Art, University of Toronto.
