Seven angels of the renascence, the story of art from Cimabue to Claude ;
Wyke Bayliss's 1905 art history from Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons, London, tracing Italian and European painting from Cimabue to Claude for general English readers and students. Halftone plates reproduce paintings and frescoes as tight crops on single heads — bearded Christs, a helmeted profile, a sleeping face — with coarse grain, blotched backgrounds and strong light falling across cheek and brow.
