Description

This volume offers the first comprehensive study of painting in Renaissance Perugia from the late fifteenth to the mid- sixteenth centuries.

Showcasing works by Perugino, Raphael, and Pintoricchio, as well as less familiar artists who worked in Perugia from ca. 1480-1540, Sheri Shaneyfelt traces the influence and impact of Perugino's workshop in central Italy over more than a half a century.

She demonstrates why Perugia, which has been overlooked in modern scholarship, was such a vital center for the production of early modern Italian art.

Shaneyfelt's study also shifts the focus away from the analysis of individual artistic creativity by highlighting the importance and significance of collaboration and workshop production in Renaissance Italy.

Interweaving historical and archival evidence with analyses of numerous paintings and drawings, her book, richly illustrated with 115 color illustrations, offers many new insights into the vibrant artistic culture of early modern Perugia.
