Giotto: The Arena Chapel
This title is no longer available from the Roland Collection. Details remain on this site for the reference of previous customers.
Giotto's remarkable decorative scheme for this chapel in Padua is considered to be one of the cornerstones of Western art. An investigation into this fascinating commission by Enrico Scrovegni and an examination of how Giotto resolved the technical problems of such an immense narrative cycle. The expressive realism and critical humanism Giotto attained still communicate vividly to us today.
Part of the series 'Art, Society and Religion in Siena, Florence and Padua, 1280-1400'
