Lorenzo Lotto

Hailed as the greatest Venetian painter after Titian, Lorenzo Lotto (1480-1556) is known for a delightfully idiosyncratic artistic vision that has special appeal for 20th-century sensibilities. The authors draw on a large number of original documents, including Lotto's will, letters, and meticulously kept account books. The volume also describes and reproduces many of Lotto's paintings such as SAINT JEROME IN THE WILDERNESS. 80 color and 100 b&w illustrations.
