Nicholas A. Eckstein reveals the impact of this celebrated victory on Florentine public life and how it could have triggered the custodians of the Brancacci Chapel, the Carmelite friars, to seek the completion of frescoes by Masolino (1383-1447) and Masaccio (1401-1428). Today, tens of thousands of people visit the Brancacci Chapel annually to gaze at the brilliant frescoes of Saint Peter's life. Universally recognized as a canonical masterpiece of the Florentine Renaissance, these glowing murals span the interior in long panels. The first serious examination to position the frescoes at the heart of Tuscan society and culture, Painted Glories teems with fascinating characters and intrigue. In swiftly paced prose, Eckstein explores the chapel's history, medieval culture, and art patronage, progressively peeling back the story's layers amid the tumultuous politics of the 15th-century Florentine state"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Felice's Church: The Carmelites -- Felice's Church: Inside the Carmine -- Felice's Church: The Brancacci -- Masolino, Masaccio and the Carmine's Community of Artists -- The Frescoes: A Lay Reading -- The Devout Ladies of the Madonna del Popolo -- The Blessed Andrea, Saint Peter and the Miracle of Anghiari. 610 20 $a Cappella Brancacci (Santa Maria del Carmine (Church : Florence, Italy)) 610 20 $a Carmelites $z Florence $z Florence $x Art patronage. 610 27 $a Cappella Brancacci (Santa Maria del Carmine (Church : Florence, Italy)) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00656447 610 27 $a Carmelites. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00541561 650 0 $a Mural painting and decoration, Italian $z Florence. $z Florence. 650 0 $a Mural painting and decoration, Renaissance $z Florence. $z Florence. 650 0 $a Christian art and symbolism $z Florence $z Florence $y Medieval, 500-1500. 650 0 $a Art and society $z Florence $z Florence $x History $y To 1500. 650 7 $a ART $x Renaissance. $x Renaissance. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ART $x Religious. $x Religious. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ARCHITECTURE $x Renaissance. $x Renaissance. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Art and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815432 650 7 $a Art patronage. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815756 650 7 $a Christian art and symbolism $x Medieval. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710939 650 7 $a Mural painting and decoration, Italian. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029675 650 7 $a Mural painting and decoration, Renaissance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029719 651 7 $a Italy $z Florence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204699 648 7 $a To 1500 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214023110.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006084024.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3C749AC0C17411E49647BAD4DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
