Overview
Renaissance artists and humanists worked closely together on artistic projects that promoted the revival of antiquity and restored the pagan gods to their former glory. Artists often took on the role of ‘visual humanist’ themselves. This book examines the role of artists in various collaborations and addresses the question: was the revival of the pagan gods an artistic game or a religious practice? It thus provides new insights into a much-researched debate.The book, Visual Humanism: Collaborations between Artists and Humanists (1450-1650) (NIKI Studies in Netherlandish-Italian Art History #17) [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9789004710900 in Hardcover by may be ordered in bulk quantities.
