Renacimiento : El arte que conquistó el mundo

According to history books, the Renaissance and its approach to art began in the 15th century. Yet, the reality is that it was not until 1527—following the Sack of Rome—that this new style became a symbol of Catholicism and attained the level of popularity that would forever redefine the understanding of painting, sculpture, and architecture. In this highly anticipated book, Alberto Garín examines the political intrigues and profound social shifts that defined the era, exploring the papal ambitions, royal power, and dreams of grandeur that drove an unprecedented revolution. Naturally, he also delves into the masterpieces and the geniuses—such as Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Botticelli, among many others—who shaped this artistic period.
