Translated by Jonathan Galassi.
Illustrated by
Bimba Landmann.
This fictional account of how the great painter Giotto--about whom little is known--might have come to be apprenticed to his teacher is lavishly illustrated. Using the warm, burnished palette common in Renaissance paintings, Landmann alludes to Chagall, Mondrian, ancient Egyptian art, Russian religious art, and more in framed paintings, panels, and triptychs highlighted with gold.
