📖 Art of Mantua

“This sumptuous book, with over 200 colour illustrations—many of them newly produced in the wake of a major restoration of Mantua’s Palazzo del Te—is undoubtedly a delight to the eye.”—The Art Newspaper “Books about the art of great cities are commonplace. But books about the art of great cities that have been ruled for nearly four centuries by a single family are special.”—Alan G. Artner, Chicago Tribune “With such a story and wonderful reproductions, this is a volume worth its art book price.”—Montreal Gazette “This meaty book covers the city’s history and cultural legacy in considerable depth, and features as well dozens of paintings, maps, illustrations and photographs.”—The Globe and Mail "This scholarly and informative book, replete with beautiful color reproductions, is recommended."—Library Journal
