Sienese Painting by Timothy Hyman
An overview of the golden age of Sienese painting from 1278 to 1477. This study looks at the defining characteristics - rich colour and spatial inventiveness - in panel painting, frescoes and manuscript illumination, and provides visual analysis combined with discussion of social contexts.
