About This Item
Praeger Publications, New York, NY, U.S.A., 1963., 4th Printing 1973. Very Good/Unknown. Octavo, softcover, VG in black and green pictorial wraps. Color and b/w Illustrations. 286 pp w/index of names, list of illus. & artists, bibliography & notes, In telling the complex stokry of the Renaissance, the authors cover all the decisive personalities and events, both taking in the field as a whole and giving each part of the history its due emphasis. Since the classic works of Burckhard, Berenson, and Friedlander, there has been no survey of the Renaissance of comparable scope and authority. This book is almost entirely about the Early Renaissance, about the formation of that style in the arts which, culmitating in Leonardo da Vinci, Michelango, and Raphael, is still used as a touchstone of aesthetic quality.
