Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth exploration of the ways in which art has been used to depict the life of Christ and the Virgin Mary, particularly during the early years of Italian painting in the 14th and 15th centuries. The author argues that art played a crucial role in shaping how people understood the Incarnation and the human side of Jesus. The book also discusses the ways in which the Renaissance brought about new artistic styles and techniques that were used to portray the life of Christ, including the rise of perspective and the use of naturalism. Ultimately, the book shows how the art of this period was more than just a reflection of religious beliefs; it was also a powerful force in shaping them.
