Italian Renaissance Art

"Now in its second edition, [this book] presents an updated and even more accessible history. The book has been split into two volumes: the first covering the period 1300 to 1510; the second, 1490 to 1600. The volumes retain the same ... decade-by-decade structure as the first edition, and a number of chapters have been revised by the authors to reflect the latest scholarship. The coverage of the Trecento has been expanded, and a new appendix section explains all the key Renaissance art-making techniques, with illustrations and step-by-steps for such processes as lost-wax casting."--
