A guide to the paintings in the churches and minor museums of Florence; a critical catalogue, with quotations from Vasari
Maud Cruttwell's 1908 critical catalogue of paintings in Florentine churches and small museums, published by Dent in London and Dutton in New York for travellers and students, with passages quoted from Vasari. Fifty-six dark halftone plates reproduce frescoes and altarpieces: crowded processions on temple steps, arcaded interiors receding in perspective, enthroned bishops under carved canopies, useful for silhouetted crowd groups and architectural framing.
