Description
This beautiful book, published in conjunction with the first major exhibition of Fra Angelicos work since the cinquecentenary exhibition of 1955 in Florence, will feature more than seventy paintings, drawings, and manuscript illuminations covering all periods of the artists career, from round 1410 to 1455. Also included will be fifty selected works by his assistants and closest followers.Fra Angelico (the angelic friar; ca. 1390/95-1455) was one of Renaissance Florences leading painters. In addition to his celebrated altarpieces and frescos in Florence, Fiesole, Cortona, Perugia, and Rome, Fra Angelico also completed many masterpieces on a small scale. His predella panels, the small narrative scenes included beneath large altarpieces, are among the most innovative creations in fifteenthcentury Florence, while his images of the Virgin and Child still retain the inspirational immediacy and presence that first secured the artists reputation
