142 pp., with illustrations and extensive index. Stated second printing (1936) of Yale University Press’s original 1933 edition, which Yale released in a two-volume set. Volume 1 was the original Italian text, and Volume 2 was the English translation (The Craftsman’s Handbook). The volume for sale here is VOLUME 2, the English translation. Written in the 15th century (c. 1400) by an Italian painter trained in the tradition of Giotto, this crucial guide details medieval and early Renaissance painting methods, fresco techniques, gilding, and pigment mixing, serving as an irreplaceable historical window and touchstone for art historians, conservators, and traditional painters wanting to understand how old masters created their works. Minor shelf and handling wear. Light soiling to edges of boards, endpapers, and pastedowns. Significant age-toning and wear (including chips, creases and tears) to dust jacket (see photos); dust jacket is now enclosed in a (removable) protective mylar cover.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
