"A new study of the early Renaissance portrait"--

(Paperback)

(Hardback)

In this wide-ranging and authoritative book, the first of its kind in English, Wood tracks the evolution of the historical study of art from the late middle ages through the rise of the modern scholarly discipline of art history.

(Paperback, 2nd edition)

In this revealing study, now available in a revised and expanded new edition, Christopher Wood shows how Altdorfer prised landscape out of its subsidiary role as background for narrative history painting and devotional works to give it a new, independent life of its own.
