The Lives of the Artists by Peter E Bondanella
A new translation of this contemporary source on Italian Renaissance art. Vasari's collections of biographical accounts are filled with facts, attributions and anecdotes about hundreds of artists ranging from the greatest figures to those known today only by the specialist.Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574), a painter, architect, and Medici confidante, was a key proponent of the late Renaissance style known as Mannerism, which was highly influenced by Michelangelo. The Lives of the Most Brilliant Painters, Sculptors, and Architects, first published in 1550, is probably his abiding masterpiece.
