Description: The Sixteenth-Century Italian Schools (Excluding the Venetian) Good - Text Unmarked - Binding and Cover Clean and Tight - External Wear - Ready to Ship By -- National Gallery (UK), Cecil Gould Published by -- The Order of the Trustees of the Publications Department of the National Gallery, 1962, London UK, 194 Pages, Trade Paperback, 9.75" X 6" X .5", 14 oz. [NOTE] "The present volume includes all the cinquecento pictures in the National Gallery except those already catalogued in my Sixteenth-Century Venetian School (1959) and a few others which have been excluded for reasons of art historical convenience. Some of the latter (e.g. works by the Milanese followers of Leonardo) were dealt with in The Earlier Italian Schools by Martin Davies (1951 and 1961), and a very few more at the other end of the scale which may actually have been painted within the sixteenth century (e.g. Caravaggio's Supper at Emmaus) will be catalogued in the forthcoming volume on the seicento by Michael Levey. (...) [I]t must be admitted that a field so extensively worked has a tendency to blunt the edge of further research, and this I was only able to obviate by regarding my predecessors' work as a challenge and by trying in each case to discover something which had escaped them in their turn. As in my earlier catalogue I have enjoyed the assistance of Stella Mary Pearce's notes on the costumes. The late Contessa Winifred Terni di Gregory was tireless and effective in answering abstruse questions concerning anything in the region of Crema, and Conte Fausto Lechi forthcomingly omniscient on Brescian collections and genealogy alike." #BooksBooksBooks #NationalGallery #booksale #MuseumCatalogue #Antiquarian #Books #ItalianArt #UnitedKingdom #bibliophile #bookcollecting #instaread #CecilGould #booksforsale #Renaissance #Bookstagram #Scarce #NationalGallery #Catalogue #collectiblebooks #instabooks #London #Vintage #CuttleboneBooks #Cinquecento #readersofinstagram #Bookworm
