THE ART OF THE PORTRAIT (GF). NORBERT SCHNEIDER. EN ESPAÑA

This book is about the great age of European portrait-painting, from its genesis in the late Middle Ages to the genre's greatest achievements in the Renaissance and Baroque. Norbert Schneider interprets a wide range of major works, thereby contributing to our understanding of portraiture as a whole. Drawing on his knowledge of the background against which the artists lived and worked, the author provides access to paintings whose meanings might otherwise remain obscure.. Benedikt Taschen..
