Botticelli

NOTE LIBRAIO

Now available in a new edition, this celebration of the life and art of the Renaissance genius presents Sandro Botticelli's complete paintings and offers a comprehensive and thoroughly up-to-date study of his work. Botticelli is one of the most admired artists of the Renaissance period and his seductive Venus and graceful Primavera are<br />among the world's most recognizable works of art. This catalogue raisonné of Botticelli's paintings offers more than two hundred full-color illustrations and meticulous scholarship by the<br />distinguished Renaissance art historian Frank Zöllner, described<br />by The Financial Times, when reviewing this book's previous<br />edition, as "a fabulous, accessible scholar; his book has luscious<br />reproductions and exquisite detail." Presented in chronological<br />order, the facts of Botticelli's life and career are insightfully<br />discussed against the background of the artistic upheaval that<br />marked the Renaissance period. The artist's reinterpretations of<br />ancient myths as well as his religious paintings are thoughtfully<br />explored in this sumptuously illustrated volume, which will<br />please scholars and delight lovers of fine art books everywhere.
