ダウンロード THE HISTORY OF ART : THE UNKNOWN SECRETS ABOUT THE ARTS (English Edition) mobi 本

We have lived two or three centuries with the feeling that the Italian Renaissance rediscovered, for our consolation, the lost way of ancient art, and that before it and outside it there was only barbarity and confusion. When our need to love them made us look passionately at the work left by the artists who preceded the rise of Italy in the late Middle Ages, we have ignored and slandered Italy.
