Description
"Giotto : architect of color and form focuses on the finest example of the artist's work, the magnificent cycle of frescoes covering the walls of the Scrovegni, or Arena, Chapel in Padua. These depictions of the life of Joachim and Anna, the Virgin and Christ, the Passion, and the Pentecost constitute one of the highest and most complex moments in the stylistic development of Giotto's painting. Here he has surpassed all of his previous work in the most important example of artistic innovation in the thirteenth century ... [includes] over 100 exquisite color reproductions on special textured, translucent paper." -- Book jacket.
