Summary
"History of Italian Renaissance Art, sixth edition, provides readers with an updated understanding of this pivotal period, incorporating new research and current art historical thinking while also maintaining the integrity of the story that Frederick Hartt first told so enthusiastically many years ago. Choosing to retain Frederick Hartt's traditional framework, David Wilkins has introduced a number of changes. Newly added works of art demonstrate the diversity of the period."--BOOK JACKET.
