About This Book

Eine kunsthistorische Monographie zeichnet Leben und künstlerische Entwicklung des Malers nach, verortet seine Werke im kulturellen Klima Florenz’ und erläutert den Wandel vom mittelalterlichen Streitwesen zur neuen Hinwendung zum diesseitigen Schönen. Besprochen werden frühe Lehrmeister und prägende Einflüsse sowie formale Kennzeichen wie anmutige Gesten, schlanke Figuren und eine melodische Linienführung; häufige Verknüpfungen von religiösen und mythischen Motiven werden analysiert. Kapitel widmen sich Einzelbildern, ikonographischen Deutungen und stilistischen Eigenheiten; Abbildungen und technische Hinweise ergänzen die textliche Darstellung.
