History of Italian Renaissance Art introduces a new dimension to books on Italian art. Professor Hartt, so steeped in every phase of this subject, writes with extraordinary knowledge and facility on Italian architecture, sculpture, and painting across more than three centuries. He brings into high relief the decisive achievements of great artists, the interchanges among them, and the formation of trends that create the Renaissance as we know it. The opening words of his book are: "The matrix of Italian art is Italy itself." We discover that certain Italian artists were well aware that they were forging a new style; others, content to follow earlier art, were unavoidably influenced by their more progressive contemporaries.
