Description
Filled with glorious full-colour and black & white illustrations, this is the most comprehensive guide to pre-Renaissance Florentine painting available. Begun in 1930 by renowned art historian Richard Offner, "A Corpus of Florentine Painting" offers researchers, students, scholars, and fine-art enthusiasts an unrivalled scientific, historical, and critical exploration of pre-Renaissance Florentine art. Each volume consists of an historical and critical study on an artist, group of artists, or art-related topic, alongside a comprehensive and magnificently illustrated catalogue of their works and related documents. The latest volume in the series is: "The Mosaics Of The Baptistery of Florence". The first full monograph on the stunning mosaic decoration of the Baptistery of St John in Florence - the largest thirteenth century pictorial cycle in Tuscany, and undoubtedly one of the most important of the period.
