"Renaissance Art Reconsidered: An Anthology of Primary Sources" offers an intimate glimpse into myriad artistic realities, locales, media contents, and philosophies that came to define Renaissance art between 1400 and 1530. Moving beyond the borders of Italy, this text goes on to consider European, Mediterranean, and post Byzantine art, widening the traditional focus of Renaissance art. Unprecedented in its sources, this collection brings together a wide variety of contracts, extracts from treatises, letters, diaries, wills and other important documents, many of which are translated into English for the first time, to provide crucial insight into the art and the context in which it was produced.
