Thompson, Jr.  ‘This is D. V. Thompson’s definitive English translation of “Il Libro dell’Arte,” an intriguing guide to methods of painting written in 15^th century Florence.  Embodying the secrets and techniques of the great masters, it served as an art student’s introduction to the ways of his craft. … But when we remember the magnificent mosaics, paintings, and frescoes these methods produced, the book takes on an even greater value as a touchstone to another age.’ (from rear wrap)
