the Italian Renaissance at the Courtauld Institute in London. Relying on vivid historical evidence, Scott Nezarsoul, a specialist in the history of Italian Renaissance art at the Courtauld Institute in London, explores a period of extraordinary cultural, artistic, and intellectual flourishing that occurred in Florence in the 15th and early 16th centuries. The author dares to question the accepted views, our knowledge and stereotypes, to pose new and unusual questions, and to discuss what was considered unimportant or simply overlooked. A fresh perspective on the city and its art allows us to present undisputed masterpieces and lesser-known works in a broader cultural context. Scott Nezarsoul helps the reader to consider together different forms of art and artists: from painting, sculpture, and architecture to printmaking and illuminated manuscripts, from Michelangelo, Donatello, Botticelli, and Brunelleschi to unknown masters—highlighting connections and influences that seem unexpected but desperately remind us of the flow of life. An engaging story about an inexhaustible culture that continues to answer questions about ourselves.
