Gucci shaped the image of Polish sculpture in the sixteenth century for...

Parution : Theresa Flanigan, « The Ponte Vecchio. Architecture, Politics, and Civic Identity in Late Medieval Florence », Turnhout, Brepols, 2024

Famous today for the shops lining its sloped street, the Ponte Vecchio is the last premodern bridge spanning the Arno River at Florence and one of the few remaining examples of the once more prevalent urbanized bridge type.

Parution : Timothy Verdon (dir.), “Florence and the Idea of Jerusalem”, Turnhout, Brepols, 2024

From the time of Dante through the 17th century and beyond, Florence had a special relationship with the Biblical Jerusalem—with the idea, that is, of a city chosen by God to be a sign of human peace. This collection of essays traces the development of this ‘Idea of Jerusalem’ from the Divine Comedy and medieval Holy Land pilgrimages through the 1439 Council of Florence, Savonarola’s end of the 15th-century preaching, and the astonishing project of...

Parution : Douglas Dow, “Bernardino Poccetti and the Art of Religious Painting at the End of the Florentine Renaissance”, Amsterdam, Amsterdam University Press, 2023

By almost any measure Bernardino Barbatelli, called Poccetti, was a successful and sought after painter in late sixteenth-century Florence, but his works have remained largely overlooked. This study situates representative examples of his religious painting within their respective contexts to demonstrate how Poccetti and his patrons negotiated the increasingly fraught terrain of sacred painting in the period of religious reform. These case studies demonstrate how patrons ranging from the Dominicans to the Carthusians to prominent...

This work provides a new narrative for Orsanmichele in the era before the Renaissance.
