Lotto

“An erudite and amorous painter, a careful draftsman, attentive in the intelligence and precision of the parts; his works are composed with acute reason, with equal vivacity and refinement” (A.M. Zanetti).
Aimed at informed but non-specialized readers, this book offers a monographic summary of the life and work of Lotto.
The short introduction examines the circumstances that led to the emergence and evolution of the artist’s personality. This is followed by a veritable “guided tour” through an imaginary museum of his masterpieces, splendidly illustrated, with complete descriptive captions.
A small anthology of critical and documentary writings and an essential bibliography make the books in this series up-to-date tools for students and art lovers alike.
