This was an extraordinary period in the history of artone that witnessed the rebirth of the humanistic spirit of antiquity and also produced some of rhe most famous artists of all time, including Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael and Michelangelo. -- Beginning with transitional Late Gothic artists such as Giotto, the biographies in this comprehensive two-volume work trace the evolution of new modes of artistic expression, from scientific naturalism and the development of linear perspective to the exploration of new secular themes derived from Classical literature and mythology. -- All three phases of Renaissance art are covered early, middle and late (the latter period also known as Mannerist). Like the award-winning 34-volume Dictionary of Art, from which the revised and thoroughly updated entries in this encyclopedia have been drawn, the coverage also includes articles on cities, building types, art forms and styles, patrons, collectors and writers, and in-depth surveys of all the fine and decorative arts in Italy during the Renaissance and Mannerist periods. Over 1000 entries are complemented by 750 black-and-white and 200 colour illustrations. -- The Grove Encyclopedias of European Art is one of five new innovative series of encyclopedias that make up the Grove Library of World Art. Published in more accessible and affordable one-to three-volume formats, these revised encyclopedias will make available for the first time some of rhe most popular areas of the renowned Dictionary of Art.
