"Renaissance architecture, which appeared in about 1420 in Florence under Bruneslleschi and Alberti, reached its peak in the next generation with the giants of the High Renaissance - Bramante, Sanmichele, Sangallo, Peruzzi, Sansovino and Michelangelo, all clearly and sensitively discussed by Professor Murray. This was not only an age of unparalleled architectural achievement in Italy itself; it also holds the key to developments in the rest of Europe for the next three hundred years. Professor Murray's book first appeared in 1963 and immediately became a standard work. Since then it has been substantially revised. It remains the only scholarly, up-to-date and comprehensive study of this subject - so crucial in architectural history - that is currently available." - back cover.
