Anthony Blunt's GUIDE TO BAROQUE ROME, the fruit of a lifetime's work, was a pathbreaking book when it was published in 1982. It quickly established itself as essential reading for traveller and student alike and a new generation of scholars was inspired to explore this field in even greater depth. PALLAS ATHENE is now proud to present the first synthesis of these exciting new discoveries, in a fully revised edition of a book that has been called 'the greatest architectural guidebook ever written' Each of the over 300 entries discusses in detail the history of the church, its design and construction as well as its significant features and decoration (including paintings). Much new information has been amassed since the original edition appeared, and care has been taken to make this material as accessible as possible, whether it is an appraisal of the patronage history of a particular chapel, a new attribution, or the full significance of a fresco cycle. Full references and indexes are provided in a clearer format than hitherto.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

Anthony Blunt was one of the leading art historians of the 20th century, and a famous teacher, although his career was overshadowed in the public mind by his activities as a spy. He wrote extensively on art of all periods, but his greatest interest was in Rome of the later 17th century. He died in 1983.
