Overview

This book aims to analyze the genesis and evolution of late Gothic painting in the Crown of Aragon and the rest of the Hispanic kingdoms, examining this phenomenon in relation to the whole context of Europe in the second half of the fifteenth century. The authors consider the influence of the Flemish primitive movement on the art produced by their Spanish colleagues, the artistic relations and interchanges with the Netherlands and other countries, and the introduction and development of the Flemish language in the Spanish lands. The book also examines altarpieces, considering topics such as changes in shape and structure and liturgical links, along with offering stylistic analyses supported by new technologies. Contributors are Joan Aliaga, Maria Antonia Argelich, Marc Balleste, Judith Berg Sobre, Carme Berlabe, Eduardo Carrero, Ximo Company, Francesca Espanol, Francesc Fite, Montserrat Jardi, Nicola Jennings, Fernando Marias, Didier Martens, Isidre Puig, Nuria Ramon, Pedro Jose Respaldiza, Stefania Rusconi, Tina Sabater, Albert Sierra, Pilar Silva, Lluisa Tolosa, Alberto Velasco, and Joaquin Yarza ().
