This sumptuous catalogue provides an overview of French art circa
1500, a dynamic, transitional period when the country, resurgent
after the dislocations of the Hundred Years' War, invaded Italy and
all media flourished. What followed was the emergence of a unique
art: the fusion of the Italian Renaissance with northern European
Gothic styles. Outstanding examples of exquisite and revolutionary
works are featured, including paintings, sculptures, illuminated
manuscripts, stained glass, tapestries, and metalwork. Exciting new
research brings to life court artists Jean Fouquet, Jean
Bourdichon, Michel Colombe, Jean Poyer, and Jean Hey (The Master of
Moulins), all of whose creations were used by kings and queens to
assert power and prestige. Also detailed are the organization of
workshops and the development of the influential art market in
Paris and patronage in the Loire Valley. Distributed for the Art
Institute of Chicago Exhibition Schedule: Grand Palais, Paris
