Giotto and Piero della Francesca

In the fascinating Great Artist series, we investigate some of the best artists in history - examining their influence, style and what exactly made them so unique. In this double package we examine two vital instigators of the Renaissance; Giotto, with his naturalistic and emotive treatment of medieval Christian iconography, whose popularity and commissions raised the status of artists forevermore, and Piero della Francesca, creator of calm, monumental and enigmatic images that paved the way for the likes Leonardo and Michelangelo.
