Synopsis

This beautiful volume, companion to the earlier, highly regarded Giotto to Dürer, is a guide to the sixteenth-century paintings of London’s National Gallery. It examines the finest works of such artists as Holbein, Raphael, Cranach, Titian, Gossaert, and Bronzino and provides fascinating insights into the individual masterpieces and their makers.

A readable overview of European painting in the sixteenth century, rich with perceptive commentary.” Andrew Butterfield, Art News

This fluently written and beautifully produced book serves both as a period survey and as a reference for sixteenth-century European painting in the collections of the National Gallery.” Jeffrey Fontana, Sixteenth Century Journal
