[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from A New History of Painting in Italy: From the II to the XVI Century It is not by dwelling exclusively on the growth of the purely Florentine school that we shall explain its development. Its ultimate perfection was due to the wisdom with which all past and contemporary elements of progress were assimilated and combined, from whatever quarter they might originally proceed. The great laws of composition founded on the models of Giotto, the plastic element made dominant by the sculptors of the fifteenth century, the scientific perspective of lines, which owed its grand impulse to Uccello, the more subtle one of atmosphere which Masaccio mastered, the tasteful architecture revived by Brunelleschi and Alberti, were summed up in a groat measure by the spirit and grasp of Domenico Ghirlandaio. Th changes in the use and application of mediums carried out by the Posclli and Baldovinetti, enlarged and extended by the Pollaiuoli, gained a concrete value in Verrocchio. But the merit of these and later artists owed much to the example of one who is not a Florentine, though educated in his earliest years under the tuition of a master formed on the pure Florentine models. Pietro di Benedetto of the Franceschi, more commonly known as Piero della Francesca, was born at Borgo San Scpolcro in Umbria, on the western face of the mountain chain which parts Tuscany from the old duchy of Urbino and the States of the Church on the Adriatic About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
