Description
|
|
|
|
Soon after Giorgione introduced the fresco to Venice in the early 16th century, Venetian noble families began commissioning the greatest masters of European painting to create grand fresco cycles for the interiors of their city palaces and their villas on the mainland. This substantive, abundantly illustrated catalog celebrates these superb frescoes, and the palaces in which they reside, in color photographs and detail views up to 21 x 13 inches. From complex allegories to baroque masterpieces, fanciful distant worlds to winking comedies, the works here explore the changing nature of this tradition over the course of three centuries, including frescoes by major artists like Andrea Urbani and Giambattista Tiepolo.
