Produktbeschreibung
"When Caravaggio first arrived in Rome in 1592, it was the richest, most glamorous city on earth--and one of the most dangerous." The Art of Travel series celebrates the world's greatest artists and the cities they lived and worked in. See the sights through their eyes. Watch their masterpieces come to life. Transport yourself back in time into the heart of Italy's great cities, with the country's best-loved artists as your tour guides. Meet Caravaggio navigating the mean streets of 17th-century Rome. Head to 18th-century Venice, where Canaletto paints supersized postcards for Grand Tourists, or to medieval Florence, where you'll find Giotto hard at work in the Bardi Chapel. This beautiful, luxurious, and covetable book features 12 chapters, 21 artists, and 23 destinations, with itineraries that lead you through Italy's cultural hotspots to see their greatest works--whether up close and in person, or from the comfort of your armchair. Written by an art historian who also works as a travel writer for one of the UK's leading newspapers, the book has specially commissioned maps for each chapter, with charming hand-drawn vignettes that will immerse you in the historic worlds of the artists. Forthcoming titles in the Art of Travel series: France, Japan, Spain, Britain, US
