Evolution as It Applies to Art by Elisabeth Luther Cary
The article discusses Grant Allen and Cruickshank’s study of art evolution in early Italian works. It explains a naturalist approach tracing descent with modification from Byzantine roots to Renaissance forms, using subjects like The Annunciation to compare variations by Giotto, Fra Angelico, Botticelli, and others across landscapes, arches, and religious imagery.
