Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of Spanish painting from the 15th to the 17th centuries, exploring how it both reflected and shaped the social and religious landscape of Spain during this period. The author argues that Spanish art developed in response to the country's unique political and cultural circumstances, and that it played a vital role in shaping Spanish identity and self -perception. The author traces the development of a uniquely Spanish artistic style, from its early influences by Flemish and Italian art, to its eventual emergence as a major force in the European art world. Through its analysis of the works of major Spanish painters such as El Greco, Velazquez, and Goya, this book sheds light on the complex relationship between art, religion, and power in Spain, and offers a fresh perspective on the development of Western art history.
