Histoire de la peinture en Italie by Stendhal
"Histoire de la peinture en Italie" by Stendhal is a work on Italian painting published in 1817. Originally conceived as a manual on Italian art, this ambitious book focuses exclusively on the Florentine school across seven books and 184 chapters. Rather than providing technical instruction, Stendhal teaches readers how to appreciate and feel art through personal commentary and digression. The work reveals his emerging literary style—conversational tone, narrative pleasure, and direct reader
addresses—even before he wrote his first novel. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
