«Global Interests: Renaissance Art Between East and West» is the historical essay by Lisa Jardine and Jerry Brotton, in hardback.
Reassessment of Renaissance art between 1450 and 1550: European culture was defined in contact with the Ottoman East. It analyses the trade in portrait medals, tapestries and equestrian art, and works by Pisanello, Leonardo, Dürer, Holbein and Titian show that the East was not a marginal 'other', but an interlocutor in political and commercial networks.
First edition of 2000. Belongs to the Picturing History series from Reaktion Books and includes bibliography and index.
For readers interested in the history of Renaissance art, material culture and relations between Europe and the Ottoman Empire.
Jerry Brotton is a British historian. He is Professor of Renaissance Studies at Queen Mary University of London, a television and radio presenter and a curator.
