Andrea del Sarto: References & Edit History

S.J. Freedberg, Andrea del Sarto, 2 vol. (1963); and John Shearman, Andrea del Sarto, 2 vol. (1965), are well-illustrated monographs containing references to earlier writings; the selected bibliography in the former is especially useful. Each contains a catalogue raisonné of paintings; the second has in addition a separate catalog of drawings and register of documents. There are significant differences of opinion as to attributions, chronology, and general assessment. There have been few recent contributions on the artist; they are mostly in Italian and often deal with single works. Antonio Natali and Alessandro Cecchi, Andrea del Sarto: Catalogo completo dei dipinti (1989), is a complete and exhaustive catalog of his paintings. Antonio Natali, Andrea del Sarto (1999; originally published in Italian, 1998), contains an updated bibliography.
