Best known for commissioning the fresco cycle in Santa Maria Novella by Domenico Ghirlandaio, a key monument of the Florentine Renaissance, the Tornabuoni ordered a number of still-surviving art works, inspired by their commitment to family, knowledge of ancient literature, music, love, loss, and religious devotion. This extensive body of work makes the Tornabuoni a critically important family of early modern art patrons. However, they are further distinguished by the numerous objects they commissioned to honor female relations who served in different family roles, thus deepening understanding of Florentine Renaissance gender relations. Maria DePrano presents a comprehensive picture of how one Florentine family commissioned art to gain recognition in their society, revere God, honor family members, especially women, and memorialize deceased loved ones. 600 30 $a Tornabuoni family $x Art patronage. 600 37 $a Tornabuoni family. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00495243 650 0 $a Women and the arts $z Florence $z Florence $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Art and society $z Florence $z Florence $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Art, Italian $z Florence $z Florence $x Themes, motives. 650 0 $a Art, Renaissance $z Florence $z Florence $x Themes, motives. 650 7 $a Art and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815432 650 7 $a Art, Italian $x Themes, motives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816463 650 7 $a Art patronage. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815756 650 7 $a Art, Renaissance $x Themes, motives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816802 650 7 $a Women and the arts. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01895888 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 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213023439.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B62536EA840811E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
