Description
Pontormo and Rosso were born in Florence in 1494, barely 3 months apart. Both artists were pupils of Andrea del Sarto, and their careers often run parallel, punctuated by matching dates, which mark a series of professional achievements, and links with patrons. Pontormo & Rosso Fiorentino traces the lives and works of these two artists, examining the fundamental importance of ideas drawn from sculpture to them, and the place of Donatello as one of their main influences in this regard. This book also shows how the same influences were interpreted in different ways by the artists.
