BonusEp. 13: The Lonely Palette Reads Giorgio Vasari on Sandro Botticelli The Lonely Palette

    • Arts

Giorgio Vasari (1511-74) may have gone down in history as the very first Western art historian, but he is also a messy bench who loves drama, and we are here for it. Listen to his take on Sandro Botticelli from “The Lives of the Artists” (Bondanella trans., 1991), particularly his practical jokes, from which no friend or neighbor escaped unscathed.
