"The essays represent a variety of visual arts, including paintings, architecture, and cassoni panels. The breadth of media, along with the clearly evident depth of the research, advances the very notion of a Renaissance in Siena, with artistic achievements that compare favorably to the cities, such as Florence and Rome, usually glorified for their contributions." -- Sixteenth Century Journal, "Defining the city's artistic history after its "golden age" as one of change and assimilation rather than withering decline, Renaissance Siena stands as a welcome contribution, responding to Siena's visual language on its own terms, in its native yet undeniably eclectic accents." --Renaissance Quarterly, "The volume stands as testament to the recent revival of Sienese studies, one with a focus on the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries rather than the much-considered Trecento Golden Age. What is new in this collection is an attempt to consider Sienese art entirely within a local context, free from the traditional negative assessment engendered by comparison with Renaissance Florence, and in many cases within a social-political framework that contrasts with earlier, more conservative methodological approaches...

Synopsis
The art of Renaissance Siena is usually viewed in the light of developments and accomplishments achieved elsewhere, but Sienese artists were part of a dynamic dialogue that was shaped by their city's internal political turmoil, diplomatic relationships with its neighbors, internal social hierarchies, and struggle for self-definition. These essays lead scholars in a new and exciting direction in the study of the art of Renaissance Siena, exploring the cultural dynamics of the city and its art in a specifically Sienese context. This volume shapes a new understanding of Sienese culture in the early modern period and defines the questions scholars will continue to ask for years to come. What emerges is a picture of Renaissance Siena as a city focused on meeting the challenges of the time while formulating changes to shape its future. Central to these changes are the city's efforts to fashion a civic identity through the visual arts.

- 4***7 (2)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoI was impressed by this seller, my order was packaged and dropped off at post office by end of day the same day I placed my order. The book was in excellent condition, minus a small bend on back cover but not a big issue for me( not the sellers fault, USPS isn't very careful when handling packages ). Will for sure be doing business with them again. Pricing was fair considering this was an OOP cover.
