A pristine, unread copy of this landmark survey of fifteenth-century Italian fresco painting. The book shows no signs of use: pages are crisp and unmarked, the binding is tight, and the forest-green cloth boards show no bumping or shelf wear. The dust jacket is clean and vibrant with sharp corners and no tears, creases, or fading — a genuinely fresh copy despite being nearly three decades old.This large-format (13” x 11”) art book examines twenty-one major fresco cycles from the early Italian Renaissance, spanning from the Alpine regions to Puglia with particular focus on Tuscany and Florence. Featured works include Masaccio, Masolino, and Filippino Lippi’s Brancacci Chapel, Piero della Francesca’s frescoes in Arezzo, and Benozzo Gozzoli’s Chapel of the Magi — many reproduced from newly commissioned photography of recently restored cycles. Steffi Roettgen’s authoritative essays place each cycle in its historical, technical, and artistic context.A rare opportunity to acquire this volume in true like-new condition — a cornerstone reference for any serious art history collection.
