Anachronic Renaissance is a book so rich, challenging, and
stimulating that every critique runs the risk of appearing as
nitpicking.... In its intellectual ambitions…[it] seeks to
reconceptualize nothing less than the idea of Renaissance art,
north and south of the Alps. It is a fascinating, learned, and
honest invitation to discussion, a must not only for Renaissance
scholars.—CAA Reviews
A daring attempt to rethink the authority of images in the
Renaissance and their relationship with time.—Bookslut
