This book seeks to broaden the comprehension of the student of
Italian Renaissance painting by concentrating not on the works of
art themselves, but on the various artistic theories which
influenced them or were expressed by them. Taking Alberti's
treatises as his starting-point, Anthony Blunt traces the
development of artistic theory from Humanism to Mannerism. He
discusses the writings of Leonardo, Savonarola, Michelangelo, and
Vasari, examines the effect of the Council of Trent on religious
art, and chronicles the successful struggle of the painters and
sculptors themselves to elevate their status from craftsmen to
creative artists.
