In this absorbing illustrated history, Loren Partridge takes the
reader on an insightful tour of Renaissance Florence and sheds new
light on its celebrated art and culture by examining the city's
great architectural and artistic achievements in their political,
intellectual, and religious contexts. This essential and accessible
text, the only up-to-date volume on Renaissance Florence currently
available, incorporates insights from recent scholarship, including
gender studies, while emphasizing the artists' social status,
rivalries, and innovations. The result is a multilevel exploration
of how the celebrated Florentine culture formally registers in
specific works of art or architecture and how these works
interactively informed and often shaped the culture.
