Renaissance Painting

Newest among Barron's large, lavishly illustrated books of full-color art reproductions, this magnificent volume evokes the art of the European Renaissance as it came to flower during the fifteenth & sixteenth centuries.

Paintings by these & many more artists are faithfully reproduced in this magnificent volume. More than 90 Italian, Flemish, German, French, & Spanish artists are represented in a spectacular collection of some 500 full-color reproductions. In addition to works by the three Italian masters cited above, readers will find reproductions of paintings by Botticelli, Titian, Correggio, Bronzino, Bruegel, Bosch, Durer, & Holbein, among many others. This beautiful volume's large & faithful full-color reproductions present a dramatic & absorbing overview of what many historians call the single most important epoch in the history of the visual arts.Zuffi, Stefano is the author of 'Renaissance Painting' with ISBN 9780764153136 and ISBN 0764153137.
