| Summary |
"Die Entwicklungsgeschichte der Stile in der bildenden Kunst. Zweiter Band: Von der Renaissance bis zur Gegenwart" by Dr. Ernst Cohn-Wiener is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book examines the evolution of styles in visual arts from the Renaissance to contemporary times, highlighting significant movements and their cultural contexts throughout history. The beginning of this work introduces the author’s intention to explore the rich tapestry of art history, starting with the Italian Renaissance. It sets the stage for a detailed analysis of how diverse artistic movements are influenced by broader cultural and philosophical shifts. Cohn-Wiener discusses the complexities of merging styles, focusing particularly on how Italy transitioned from medieval art to flourishing artistic expression during the Renaissance. He establishes a framework for understanding how these shifts represent not just aesthetic evolution, but significant changes in societal values and self-perception during this transformative period.
