This book breaks new ground by illuminating the key role of
verse-writing as a cultural strategy on the part of Italian
Renaissance artists. It does so by undertaking a wide-ranging study
of poems by painters, sculptors, architects, and goldsmiths who
were active in Florence under Cosimo I and Francesco I de' Medici -
a milieu in which many practitioners of the visual arts
appropriated the literary medium to address issues related to their
primary professions. New Apelleses, and New Apollos intervenes in
the burgeoning scholarly discourse on the intellectual life of
artists in early modern Italy, revealing how poetry often provides
fresh insights into art-theoretical debates, patronage questions,
workshop cultures, issues of professional identity, and networks of
personal relations.
