Julia Cartwright follows Andrea Mantegna from his early years in Padua through his work at Verona and his long service to the Gonzaga at Mantua, including the Camera degli Sposi, his engravings and the Triumphs of Caesar. She then turns to Francesco Francia, the goldsmith-painter of Bologna, and his gentle religious art.
