While the masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance are usually
associated with Italy's historical seats of power, some of the
era's most characteristic works are to be found in places other
than Florence, Rome, and Venice. They are the product of the
diversity of regions and cultures that makes up the country. In
Endless Periphery, Stephen J. Campbell examines a range of iconic
works in order to unlock a rich series of local references in
Renaissance art that include regional rulers, patron saints, and
miracles, demonstrating, for example, that the works of Titian
spoke to beholders differently in Naples, Brescia, or Milan than in
his native Venice. More than a series of regional microhistories,
Endless Periphery tracks the geographic mobility of Italian
Renaissance art and artists, revealing a series of exchanges
between artists and their patrons, as well as the power dynamics
that fueled these exchanges. A counter history of one of the
greatest epochs of art production, this richly illustrated book
will bring new insight to our understanding of classic works of
Italian art.
