Description: The Folio SocietyLONDONTHE RENAISSANCEStudies in Art and Poetryby Walter PaterIntroduced by Michael Prodger 2013 Blue cloth boards, gilt title to spine and blocked decoration to front. Colour illustrations."She is older than the rocks among which she sits; like the vampire, she has been dead many times, and learned the secrets of the grave; and has been a diver in deep seas, and keeps their fallen day about her…” With these words, the scholar Walter Pater described one of the world’s greatest paintings: the Mona Lisa. Part cultural critique, part aesthetic creed, and, as introducer Michael Prodger writes, ‘a work of art in its own right’, The Renaissance was Pater’s greatest and most influential work.
