Sinopsis

This classic survey of Italian Baroque art and architecture focuses on the arts in every center between Venice and Sicily in the early, high, and late Baroque periods. The heart of the study, however, lies in the architecture and sculpture of the exhilarating years of Roman High Baroque, when Bernini, Borromini, and Cortona were all at work under a series of enlightened popes. Wittkower’s text is now accompanied by a critical introduction and substantial new bibliography. This edition—now published in three volumes—will also include color illustrations for the first time.
Rudolf Wittkower was Durning-Lawrence Professor of the History of Art at the University of London, chairman of the department of art history and archaeology at Columbia University, Kress Professor at the National Gallery, Washington, and Slade Professor at Cambridge. Jennifer Montagu was for many years the curator of the Photographic Collection at the Warburg Institute, University of London. Joseph Connors is professor of art history and archaeology at Columbia University. John Pinto is Howard Crosby Butler Memorial Professor, department of art history and archaeology, Princeton University.
