Art historian Georgy Smirnov's book is the first study in Russian devoted to the architecture of Central Europe from the 1470s to the mid-1520s, a turning point in the transition from the Middle Ages to the Modern Period. During this period, the influence of Italian Renaissance art began to spread north of the Alps, to the lands of the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of Hungary. Its beginning in the architectural development of this region, particularly in what is now Hungary, the Czech Republic, Germany, and Austria, was marked by the emergence of the first tendencies of the Renaissance. Despite these new trends, Gothic architecture—a legacy of the refined culture of the Late Middle Ages—remained dominant in these countries. These two opposing stylistic trends developed in parallel, largely independently. At times, the new and the traditional gave birth to a symbiosis of Italianate and late Gothic forms, imbuing architectural monuments with a unique character and local flavor.

This richly illustrated publication is addressed to both specialists (art historians, historians, and cultural experts) and a wide range of readers interested in the history of architecture.
