"The Legend of the True Cross fresco cycle in the Church of San Francesco at Arezzo is the cornerstone of Piero della Francesca's modern fame....In Piero della Francesca in America, the first monographic exhibition on the artist in the United States, seven magnificent paintings evoke, on an intimate scale, the Arezzo experience. Surrouned by a small constellation of Piero's works, Frick audiences can refine their encounter with his exacting designs and magisterial brushwork."--"Foreword", p. 7.
