In the period under study here, Rome lived up to its epithet 'The Eternal City'. This is a comprehensive history of the art of Rome in the Renaissance studies; the architecture, sculpture, painting, and decorative arts together in their social, religious, and historical context. Organized around the patronage of the popes, it tells the story of three centuries, in which the eternal city rose from the ashes of its decline in the fourteenth century, when the papal court was transferred to France and then endured the Great Schism of absent and ascending popes. Miraculously, by the first decade of the sixteenth century, under the visionary guidance of Pope Julius II, the artists he commissioned - Bramante, Raphael, and Michelangelo - and the humanists of the papal court with whom he surrounded himself, Rome had established itself as the Christian reembodiment of the Roman Empire.

Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Publisher's red hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, complete with original dustjacket, just showing a few very minor rubs, now protected in a clear, removable sleeve. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in better than very good condition. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price.
