Description
The Renaissance period was one of the most exciting and innovative in Western art, and has never failed to stimulate the imagination with its remarkable wealth of talent. Many of the greatest artists in Western painting lived during this period - Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Van Eyck, Durer and Holbein. In this comprehensive and stimulating new study, the first of its kind and scope for some time, Charles McCorquodale presents a panorama of the whole period in painting, covering the major European countries affected by new ideas.
