VENDETTA: HIGH ART AND LOW CUNNING AT THE BIRTH OF THE RENAISSANCE
by Hugh Bicheno
Published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson. 1st. 2008
Very good condition in a very good dustwrapper. A story of unbridled lust, treachery and murder featuring an extraordinary cast of characters who fought, poisioned, betrayed and cheated their way from the late middle ages into the modern era, and in the process produced some of the most enduringly beautiful works of art ever seen. Red boards, gilt title to spine. 290 pages including index. B/w text illustrations and diagrams plus colour plates.
Heavy foxing throughout. Dustwrapper is ever so slightly edge creased.
