The Italian Renaissance is one of the most important eras in western art. Painters like Masaccio, Botticelli, Michelangelo, and Titian brought about a fundamental renewal that influenced all of Europe. More than fifty of the most important artists up to 1600 are presented in this book with more than 270 color illustrations.
The few surviving works by the Dutch artist Hieronymus Bosch are among the most famous icons in art history. Unique hidden-book-like works of horror, his paintings are populated by monsters and devils, hybrids, tree and bird people, toads, owls, dragons, and unicorns. The entire cosmos of the ingenious fantasist unfolds here in a multitude of illustrations and details.
More than 250 works by Albrecht Dürer are reproduced here to give the reader a comprehensive survey of the life and work of this unique and universal genius in genres ranging from prints and drawings to watercolors and oil paintings.
