'The Cambridge Companion to Giovanni Bellini is highly recommended to anyone interested in Venetian Renaissance painting.' Times Literary Supplement '... the Cambridge Companion to Bellini provides a highly informative and illuminating view of many aspects of the artist's work and career. While more traditional topics and well-trodden ground are shown in a new light, areas for which there is little remaining documentation are handled skilfully ...' The Art Book 'Peter Humfrey has admirably succeeded in matching authors with topics ... the Bellini Companion volume points to a remarkable resurgence of interest in an artist about whom much still remains to be said.' Burlington Magazine
