Goldgrund Und Perspektive: Fra Angelico Im Glanz Des Quattrocento [German]

by Saskia Quené

This book contains the first extensive study on the gold ground in Italian panel painting. In Fra Angelico's panel paintings, gold leaf applications and perspectival modes of representation complement each other. Therefore, this book revises the history of perspective and gives answers to the question of how the gold ground became a blind spot in art historical research over the past decades.
