Cortona, Montecchio Vesponi e Castiglione Fiorentino; con 185 illustrazioni
An Italian art-historical survey by Girolamo Mancini, published in Bergamo in 1909 by the Istituto italiano d'arti grafiche, documenting the churches, palaces and painted works of Cortona, Montecchio Vesponi and Castiglione Fiorentino for scholars and art lovers. The plates are photographic reproductions, many printed sideways on the page, showing gold-ground altarpieces with Gothic arches, carved tomb monuments, stone exterior walls with small windows, and a richly painted coffered ceiling with grotesques and medallions, useful for designers seeking Renaissance ornament, arch framing and panel layouts.
