More than any other Italian fifteenth-century painter, Piero della Francesca was responsible for the development of Renaissance painting in Florence, and its crucial dissemination throughout Italy. His work represents a synthesis of Italian painting, with its focus on perspective and space - and Netherlandish painting, which stressed light and natural phenomena, and he was one of the first to develop architectural and spacial perspective.
This beautifully illustrated book offers a full-scale chronological and critical account of Piero's paintings. From his formative years in Florence, when he worked with Domenico Veneziano in the church of Sant'Egidio, to his seminal mid-career work in the church of San Francesco in Arezzo, and his later work in Rome, Perugia, and Urbino, these pages capture Piero's extraordinary palette and the remarkably expressive faces of his subjects.
