Marks a significant addition to the study of painting in the late Middle Ages.During the second half of the fourteenth century, when the Master of the Trebon Altarpiece was active, the Kingdom of Bohemia, with its capital in Prague, was rich and powerful, an international center of culture and art.Royt, a highly respected scholar in the Czech Republic, published this book in English, thereby greatly increasing readership and making the work of this major and influential master better known to scholars throughout the world.Situating the artist within both local and European contexts, Royt pays close attention to the creative process.In addition to details of iconography, composition, and technique, he examines various reconstructions of the original arrangement and installation of the altarpiece in its ecclesiastical setting, thereby creating a fully rounded image of the Master of the Trebon Altarpiece and of his place within the history of late medieval art.Beautifully produced, with excellent color reproductions, including many close details, The Master of the Trebon AltarPiece will be a welcome addition to any library. . . . Recommended. --E. B. Smith, Pennsylvania State University Choice
