Revered in his own time as a "monarch" of painting, Piero della Francesca (1411/13-1492) is acknowledged today as a founding figure of the Italian Renaissance. From February 12 to May 19, 2013, The Frick Collection presented the first monographic exhibition in the United States dedicated to the artist, bringing together seven works by Piero della Francesca, including six panels from the Sant' Agostino altarpiece—the largest number from this masterwork ever reassembled. Essays by Nathaniel Silver, James R. Banker, and Machtelt Israels. Appendix by Giacomo Guazzini and Elena Squillantini. A sumptuous catalogue!
