Book Description
Catalog accompanying an exhibition at the Frick Collection, New York, of two paintings by Cimabue (Cenni di Pepo; ca. 1240-1302), called by some the founder of Italian Renaissance painting. The painter's Flagellation of Christ (Frick Collection, New York) and Virgin and Child Enthroned with Two Angels (National Gallery, London) were once part of a larger work, possibly a commission of Franciscan origin. Exhibited with the two panels are other examples of Italian devotional art of the late 13th and early 14th centuries from New York collections.
