His lasting contribution to art history is documented,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Masaccio: Saint Andrew and The Pisa Altarpiece (Getty Museum Studies on Art) (Paperback)
Masaccio: Saint Andrew And The Pisa Altarpiece by Eliot W. Rowlands (Senior Researcher, Wildenstein and Company, New York) reflects on the workings of Italian Renaissance artist Masaccio (1401-1428), who was the first artist to use light effects to create three-dimensional images on a two-dimensional plane. His lasting contribution to art history is documented and embraced with representations of Masaccio's classic works in black-and-white as well as in color. The paintings' religious themes, their histories, commissions, and locations today, as well as Masaccio's unfortunately brief life are all informatively discussed in this welcome contribution to Art History Studies reference and reading collections. Also very highly recommended is Eliot W. Rowlands earlier contribution to Art History Studies: The Collections Of The Nelson-atkins Museum Of Art I: Italian Painting, 1300-1800 (Nelson-Atkins Museum Bookstore; ASIN: 0942614259; $29.99).
