Synopsis
Adapted from Giorgio Vasari''s Lives of the Painters, Sculptors and Architects (1568), this handsome slipcased book focuses on the three giants of Italian Renaissance art - Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti and Raphael.
Vasari''s combination of biographical anecdote and critical scrutiny remains a vivid and informative guide to the major figures of Renaissance cultural life, and the book was described as the ''first important book in art history''.
This hardback slipcased edition includes beautiful gold stamping on its clothbound cover and gorgeous full-colour images inside. These images showcase the spectacular work of these artists, including The Creation of Adam, Mona Lisa and The School of Athens.
Whether you are a layperson, hobbyist or art history expert, this classic book provides a wonderful insight into Renaissance art, presented in a wonderful gift edition.
