Renaissance Rivals: Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, Titian Details
Review ...[L]ively and appealing...[A]n important achievement...Magnificently researched and handsomely produced,...it has no rivals. -- Werner Gundersheimer, American Scholar Read more From the Back Cover "Who would have thought that the serene masterpieces of the High Renaissance owed so much of their vitality to backstage brawling? Only Rona Goffen knows enough to trace these labyrinthine rivalries. In her book the artists take on cinematic vitality, making us see the artifacts produced by such creative brawlers in entirely new ways. They are knockouts. So is her book." -Garry Wills Read more See all Editorial Reviews

Reviews
I had the pleasure of being in Professor Goffen's Italian High Renaissance class in the early 90's. She was a terrific professor, a true life force in the class room, and anyone who was lucky enough to have learned from her will never forget her. Sadly, she has since passed on, but her great intellect and love of her area of expertise live on in her definitive volume on Bellini, and in this book. A tremendous achievement.
