Description:
Evelyn Welch presents a fresh picture of Italian art between the ‘Black Death’ in the mid-fourteenth century
and the French invasions at the end of the fifteenth. In it, Florence is no longer the only important centre
of artistic activity but takes its place alongside other equally interesting and varied cities of the Italian peninsula.
Oil paintings are examined alongside frescos, tapestries, sculptures in bronze and marble, manuscript illuminations,
objects in precious metals, and a wide range of other works..
