'Toward a Geography of Art' offers essays that examine the intricacies of accounting for the geographical dimension of art history during the early modern period in Europe, Latin America and Asia.

In Giuseppe Arcimboldo's famous paintings, grapes, fish, and even the beaks of birds form human hair. This title offers an overview of Arcimboldo's life and work, exploring the artist's early years in sixteenth-century Lombardy, his grounding in Leonardesque traditions, and his tenure as a Habsburg court portraitist in Vienna and Prague.

A thorough foundation for the fresh recognition of one of the great painters of eighteenth-century Europe, a leading fresco painter who is a colorist worthy of comparison to the best of his contemporaries.
