Cosimo de` Medici and the Florentine Renaissance Review
Cosimo de` Medici and the Florentine Renaissance Overview
This remarkable book is the first to examine all the art and architecture commissioned by Florence's leading patron of the fifteenth century, Cosimo de' Medici. These spectacular commissions, when viewed together, provide an entirely new picture of Cosimo, his point of view, his motivations and intentions as a patron, and the themes that permeate his oeuvre. "Kent's splendid book is a stunningly innovative treatment of the patronage of art by Cosimo de' Medici. She sets a new standard for studies of the Medici and indeed all cultural phenomena in Florence."-Brenda Preyer
