Loren Partridge is no newcomer to art of the Renaissance or the art of Italy, with a list of books to his credit that includes Michelangelo: The Sistine Ceiling, Rome, Arts of Power: Three Halls of State in Italy, 1300-1600, and Renaissance Likeness: Art and Culture in Raphael's Julius II. His latest, The Art of Renaissance Rome makes use of unexpected chapters headings to guide the reader along on an exploration of the arts of Rome between 1400 and 1600. This opulent collection of work is further enhanced by maps, artist and royal family histories, chronologies, biographical dictionaries and brief, but telling, artist histories.
