Illustrating the Arms, Arts, and Literature of Italy, from 1440 To 1630.
Transcriber’s Note
This work was originally published in 1851. As noted in the original, footnotes marked by an asterisk were added by the editor of the 1909 edition, from which this e-book was prepared.
Obvious printer errors have been corrected without note. Other errors are indicated by red dotted underlining. Hover the cursor over the underlined text to see a pop-up Transcriber's Note. These notes are also contained in a Transcriber's Errata List at the end of this e-book. Certain spelling inconsistencies have been made consistent; for example, Pietro della Francesca has been changed to Piero della Francesca; Rafaelle to Raffaele; and Pintoricchio to Pinturicchio.
Full-page illustrations have been moved so as not to break up the flow of the text.
