Artists and Patrons of the Arts in the Eternal City. Renaissance. Rome

Artists and Patrons of the Arts in the Eternal City. Renaissance. Rome

The art historian John Marciari tells about Renaissance Rome, covering the period from 1300 to 1600. But this is not just a narrative about the beautiful buildings, sculptures, and paintings of that time; it is a fascinating exploration of the... relationships between artists and their patrons – princes of the Church, secular rulers, who were in one way or another dependent on the personality of the Pope. All of them, competing with each other for the right to be inscribed in the history of the city, commissioned artists for new and new works, while humanists desperately sought ways to recreate and preserve the ancient city for future generations.
