BRYAN KEENE, KARL WHITTINGTON (ed.). New Horizons in Trecento Italian Art, Brepols, 2020, 320 p.
ISBN: 978-2503586182

El siglo XIV en Italia, la época de Giotto, Dante y Boccaccio, ampliamente conocida como el Trecento, fue un momento crucial en la historia del arte y en la cultura europea. Los estudios de este volumen presentan nuevos enfoques del arte en este importante pero a menudo olvidado período de finales de la Edad Media y principios del Renacimiento. Los académicos en diversas etapas de sus carreras discuten una amplia gama de temas que incluyen arquitectura, intercambio cultural, materialidad, política, mecenazgo y devoción, lo que contribuye a una nueva comprensión de cómo se hizo y experimentó el arte en este siglo nodal.
