Excerpt from History and Methods of Ancient Modern Painting, Vol. 3
This volume is a continuation of the second on The History and Methods of Ancient and Modern Painting, and treats of Italian painting in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, beginning with the life and works of Benozzo Gozzoli and including the great masters of the Florentine School, also the Umbro-Florentine and Umbro-Romagnol painters. It also includes Raffaelle, Mantegna, the Muranese and early Venetian painters, from the Vivarini to Crivelli, and a chapter on Antonello da Messina.
In order to keep all the volumes of this work as far as possible of the same size, it has been considered necessary to issue another volume, which will embrace Italian painting of the seventeenth and part of the eighteenth centuries, so that the four volumes will complete this survey of painting from ancient historical times down to the eighteenth century in Italy.
The fourth volume, which will complete Italian painting, will be published shortly.
