This groundbreaking work is considered the first important book on art history and remains influential today. Vasari chronicles the lives and works of Renaissance masters, interspersing biographical details with colorful anecdotes and gossip. Though criticized for favoring Florentine artists and containing some inaccuracies, these vivid portraits shaped how generations have understood Renaissance art and its creators.
