Excerpt from Memoirs of Early Italian Painters: And of the Progress of Painting in Italy To Cimabue for three centuries had been awarded the lofty title of Father of Modern Painting and to him, on the authority of Vasari, had been ascribed the merit, or rather the miracle, of having revived the art of painting when utterly lost, dead and buried of having by his single genius brought light out of darkness, form and beauty out of chaos. The error or gross exaggeration of Vasari in making these claims for his countryman has been pointed out by later authors. Some have even denied to Cimabue any share Whatever in the regeneration of art; and, at all events, it seems clear that his claims have been much over-stated; that, so far from painting being a lost art in the thirteenth century, and the race of artists annihilated, as Va' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
