Description

Explore the paradox at the heart of Piero della Francesca's fifteenth-century Italian art in this scholarly examination of how a master painter reconciled everyday realism with sacred subjects. Piero's landscapes depict the familiar world he inhabited - winding roads, farmland, villages, and local architecture - yet his paintings often portrayed the Holy Land, a distant place he never visited. This book investigates how Piero transformed local churches, palaces, and landscapes into settings for Christian narratives, blending intimate observation with spiritual meaning. Published by Routledge as part of the Visual Culture in Early Modernity series, this work offers art historians, students, and enthusiasts a deeper understanding of Renaissance artistic practice and the relationship between observed reality and imaginative reconstruction in fifteenth-century European painting.

Key Features

Focuses on the paradoxical relationship between Piero della Francesca's realistic depiction of Italian landscapes and his sacred Christian subjects set in the Holy Land.

Examines how local churches, palaces, and villages in Piero's own region inspired his artistic vision for distant biblical settings.

Published by Routledge as part of the Visual Culture in Early Modernity academic series for art history scholars and students.

Analyses fifteenth-century Italian Renaissance painting techniques and the artist's integration of observed landscapes with theological narratives.
