This 2001 study examines the culture, society, and intellectual norms that generated the High Renaissance. Fuelled by a volatile mix of economic development, longing for ancient civilisation, and religious ferment, the High Renaissance, Rowland posits, was a period in which artists sought 'new methods for doing new things'.
