Excerpt from Renaissance in Italy, the Fine Arts
This book is one of the three written on the "Renaissance in Italy." The other two are respectively called "The Age of the Despots" and "The Revival of Learning." They deal with the politics and the scholarship of the period. A fourth book is being written on "Italian Literature."
Though these books taken together and in the order planned by the author form one connected study of Italian culture at a certain period of history, still each aims at a completeness of its own, and each can be read independently of its companions. That the author does not regard acquaintance with any one of them as essential to a profitable reading of any other has been shown by the publication of each with a separate title-page and without numeration of the volumes, while all three bear the same general heading of "Renaissance in Italy."
