The Art of the Renaissance. Italy. XIV-XV centuries
Books by St. Petersburg art historian Alexander Viktorovich Stepanov, dedicated to the art of the Renaissance, are invariably beloved by readers.
Placing the work of renowned Renaissance masters in a broad historical and cultural context, the author finds new, unexpected angles...
for each of them, which allows works that have gained the status of being canonical over many centuries to suddenly have a chance to be seen and reinterpreted anew.
Written in a lively, vivid manner, the first of three books about the Renaissance examines the heroic period of the Italian Quattrocento and the work of its titans: Giotto, Brunelleschi, Donatello, Masaccio, Verrocchio, Botticelli, Perugino, and many others.
The book by A. V. Stepanov possesses versatility in the best sense of the word: while the dynamic, engaging narrative will interest the broadest reader, the academic depth of the study places it alongside the works of the world's leading specialists in the art of the Renaissance.
Pros:

The unexpected perspective on the Renaissance offered by the author allows for a new acquaintance with this historical period.
