| LEON BATTISTA ALBERTI (1404-1472) |
|
| The archievement of
Alberti is Typical. Painters and sculptors in fifteenth-century
Florence also often found themselves in a situation in which they had to
adapt the new programme to an old tradition. The mixture between
new and old, between gothic traditions and modern forms, is
characteristic of many of the masters of the middle of the century.
