The Renaissance began in Italy, but it grew out of
European civilization, with roots in Antiquity, in Christian dogma, and in
Byzantium. The artistic ferment which had taken hold of Florence by 1420 was
also reflected in the regional schools of Siena, Umbria, Mantua and Rome; and
the new ideas spread from Italy through France, the Netherlands, Austria, Spain
and Portugal. The book includes artists as diverse as Piero della Francesca,
Van Eyck, Durer, Mantegna and Bellini, as well as the High Renaissance masters
Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael. With superb illustrations of the
artists' work and crucial historical information about the "rebirth"
of arts and letters, the authors illuminate one of the most important periods
of art history.
