Presents one of the greatest biographies of an artist ever written, and a key document of the Renaissance.
"The London publishing house Pallas Athene has come up with the very welcome and worthwhile project of assembling English translations of early biographies of artists in an easily accessible publication" - Historians of Netherlands Art Reviews
Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574), painter, architect and intimate
of the Medici, was a leading exponent of the later renaissance
style sometimes called Mannerism, which was heavily
influenced by Michelangelo. His lasting monument, however,
is undoubtedly the Lives of the most excellent Painters, Sculptors
and Architects, published in 1550 and in an enlarged edition in
1568.
