No, don't bother suggesting it. This is a Top Importance article that simply doesn't exist. I'm about to write it and it will be 2 million megabytes long. Neeed coffeee! -- Amandajm 08:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Just one question, since somebody will inevitably ask: what about 1335–1400? We can't just blame the Black Death for everything or fall back on Latent Gothic, and we should be able to account for Orcagna, the Spanish Chapel at Santa Maria Novella and the frescoes at the Camposanto in Pisa. And that's just painting (which is this topic). Those are all very much a part of any survey of the Italian Renaissance, and I'd vote with rounding Proto up to the end of the century since what happens after 1400 is completely different. Just a suggestion... -- Stomme 10:55, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Thinks: I hope this person realises I'm joking!
Are you writing all of this from memory? This is shaping up to be a good article, but it will need sources, both inline and a bibliography, to achieve its full potential. I would have thought it would be easier to source as you go, but it seems you're almost done now. I may go and get a few books out to start sourcing it. mais ( talk) 13:08, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

I personally think this article should mention Vasari's role in dividing up the Renaissance into different periods and also note his role in increasing the stature of certain artists, though I could conceivably see such things being better suited for an art history article. What do you all think? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Weygander ( talk • contribs) 04:36, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
English wikipedia must be praised for it is almost complete in what concerns Visual Art: it includes even entries about a large number of italian painters of medium or minor importance. A lot of these ones lack in italian wikipedia! That shows that often foreign people are more familiar with our great past culture than us Italians: unfortunately.

I edited the section on Raphael but it was put back. Am I the only one who thinks that the following sounds as if it were making fun of Raphael and belittling him? "Over and over he painted the same plump calm-faced blonde woman and her succession of chubby babies, the most famous probably being La Belle Jardinière, ("The Madonna of the Beautiful Garden") now in the Louvre. His larger work, the Sistine Madonna, used as a design for countless stained glass windows, has come, in the 21st century, to provide the iconic image of two small cherubs, which has been reproduced on everything from paper table napkins to umbrellas." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.129.37 ( talk) 00:02, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
I have just removed the template which is called Art in Italy or Italian art or Italian painting or some such. I cannot locate the page of the template itself.
The template, which was already very long, has recently been expanded by the insertion of a great number of images causing it to extend a further six inches down the page. These generic templates essentially offer links to other, different articles and do not have direct bearing on the substance of the article itself. Templates of this type work well when they are horizontal and at the foot of the page. When they are vertical they take up the space that is usually used for illustrating the article. In the case of an art article, these illustrations are vital, and this huge template forms a very destructive intrusion. If someone could take the info and make a horizontal box, it would be to good purpose. As it is it is a continual obstruction to the article itself.

This article (both in its intro and in its detailed text) has the High Renaissance beginning in 1475 and including Ghirlandaio and Botticelli. This is totally inconsistent with other articles on wikipedia and appears to be totally unsupported by art historians. The High Renaissance began with da Vinci, either in 1490s in general, or in 1498 with the Last Supper, and was followed by Giorgione, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian and later works of Bellini. The current text seems to definitely need revisions. Will someone do it or should I?
There is a specific section of Cosme Tura and this one set of paintings he did. This painter is rarely mentioned in any art history books. It seems his presence here was just the whim/personal preference of someone. I proposed to delete his section.
I propose to add more details about the greatest painters of the early Renaissance as the article currently has for artists of the High Renaissance. Informed analysis ( talk) 20:01, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
