Max Dvořák (1874-1921) reveals the depth and diversity of Italian painting, sculpture and architecture of the Renaissance in his classic work.
The first volume includes his lectures on the art of the 14th and 15th centuries - a time when new forms, subjects and ideas were emerging in the works of Italian artists that determined the development of the entire European culture. The author analyzes with academic thoroughness the key works of Giotto, Brunelleschi, Donatello, Leonardo da Vinci and other outstanding masters. Particular attention in the lectures is given to the development of humanistic ideas that played a key role in the intellectual and spiritual revolution of that era.
The second volume covers the development of Italian painting, sculpture and architecture during the 16th century - an era marked by the flourishing of such great masters as Michelangelo, Titian, Raphael and many others. Dvořák offers a profound analysis of artistic phenomena, examining not only the style and technique of works, but also their philosophical, cultural and spiritual contexts. The author touches upon the issues of the formation of the artistic language of the High Renaissance and Mannerism, the change of aesthetic ideals and the influence of historical events on the work of artists.
