Art and the Italian Renaissance

How did the Italian Renaissance shape the history of art and artistic collections? And what can re-examination of this period teach us about art today?

This year marks the 500th anniversary of the death of Leonardo Da Vinci, one of the most prolific artists that ever lived and a leading light of the Renaissance period. To celebrate the life of this Italian polymath, we have created a collection exploring the art and artistic legacy of his cultural milieu: Renaissance Italy

The papers below cover a broad spectrum of Renaissance art scholarship, from Classical revivals, to the works of Leonardo, to his spirit of innovation in digital scholarship. The collection is free to read online until 31st December 2019.
