What are the defining characteristics of Romanesque art? Were women artists active in the Middle Ages? And what hidden meanings lie behind a goldfinch in a late Gothic painting?

This volume addresses these and many related questions through key works from the Belvedere’s Collection Middle Ages and Renaissance. Spanning the period from 1200 to 1600, the holdings include numerous objects of international renown, among them examples from the early and late phases of Michael Pacher’s artistic activity, panels from the Schotten Altarpiece, and works by Lucas Cranach the Elder.

This book, published by the Austrian Belvedere museum, offers an overview of art-historical developments, based on the museum’s collection of art from before 1600. Headlines are set in Boogy Brut Poster, body text is composed in GT America, using its alternative round punctuation set.
