description: Rosso Fiorentino was one of the most original painters and draftsmen of the entire Renaissance period and a crucial figure among the so-called Mannerists. This book, the first full account in English of his paintings, focuses on Rosso`s life and works until about 1530, when he abandoned Italy for France and the court of Francis I and finally received the recognition he deserved. Copiously illustrated with some of the most powerful works of the Renaissance, this stimulating book provides a new basis for the assessment of Rosso and opens up fresh perspectives for the study of sixteenth-century painting and design.
