"Scholars have long viewed the Floreentine Quattrocento in light of the emergent Renaissance, and have therefore relegated the intriguing figure of Paolo Uccello (1397-1475) to the margins. Now this news, splendidly illustrated study rediscovers the genius of Uccello and gives his often fantastical compositions, his original and occasionally bizarre experiements with color and perspective, and his tendencies toward the Gothic tradition their deserved attention."
