This review is from: The Art of the Renaissance (Hardcover)
"The Art of the Renaissance" is part of the "Masters of Art" series which was first published in Italy in the 1990's. Like all the other books in the series, "The Art of the Renaissance" is a large format book. The production values are very high. Along with beautiful reproductions of Renaissance paintings, this volume has accompanying illustrations produced by two master illustrators, Simone Boni and L.R. Galante. Boni and Galante are two of the finest historical illustrators ever to work in children's literature. The text by Lucia Corrain is well written and does a good job of covering the remarkable artistic flowering that took place in Europe. This book is geared towards children of middle school age. For younger children, I would recommend Piero Ventura's masterful "Great Painters." All in all, this is a beautiful book and I would recommend it and all the other books in "The Masters of Art" series.
