Drawing on recent research by scholars of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century art, this volume reconsiders the art and architecture produced after 1563. As the first text to cover this formative period from an international perspective, this volume casts new light on the aftermath of the Renaissance and the beginnings of "Baroque."
