From Raphael to Carracci: The Art of Papal Rome

From Raphael to Annibale Carracci offers an unprecedented view of a group of works by some of the most celebrated names in Italian art, including Michelangelo, Raphael, Giorgio Vasari, Federico Barocci, and Annibale Carracci, as well as lesser-known but superb artists, many of whom have only recently been appreciated for their skill and relevance. Essays by internationally recognized Renaissance scholars illuminate one of the most extraordinary periods in art history: 16th-century Rome. This lavishly illustrated publication has been produced on the occasion of an exhibition presented exclusively at the National Gallery of Canada.
