Reviews

[Andrea Pighin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Un testo breve ma esaustivo per sottolineare come Caravaggio non sia stato quell'artista maledetto che la critica ci ha narrato, bensì un innovatore di rilievo nel solco della tradizione artistica, tanto ellenistico-romana quanto medievale e rinascimentale.

Adoro questi Art Dossier della Giunti perchè sono curati bene, gradevoli alla vista, costano poco e mi fanno avere informazioni sui miei artisti preferiti.
