El libro reúne los estudios de distintos expertos que, de forma interdisciplinar, han profundizado en la faceta de pintor de Pedro Machuca, aportando pequeñas grandes novedades clave para el estudio de la obra de este gran artista, conocido sobre todo por haber erigido el Palacio de Carlos V. Su estancia en Italia, durante la que conoció las obras de Rafael —del que fue ayudante en el Vaticano—, Miguel Ángel y Leonardo, así como el contacto que mantuvo con los discípulos de estos grandes maestros que iniciaron la Maniera, le permitieron configurar un renovador estilo que le valió ser considerado una de las “águilas” del Renacimiento hispano.
