The Pucci family's martial support for the Medici in the ugly business of ruling Tuscany drove their transformation from a clan of minor guildsmen to a noble dynasty with three cardinals to its name. Over the next centuries, they showcased their exalted status with art and architecture that mirrored Medici tastes and reflected the values of civic humanism. The political and religious turmoil of the High Renaissance is writ large in this vivid portrait of the Pucci cardinals and their artistic patronage, a cultural biography inflected by the expulsion of the Medici from Florence, the Sack of Rome, the Reformation, and the occupation of Italy by Emperor Charles V.00New archival evidence documents the chapels, palaces, and villas that were built, expanded, and decorated by the Pucci family in Rome, Tuscany, and Umbria. These celebrated projects were carried out by luminaries of Renaissance art and architecture: Michelozzo, the Pollaiuolo brothers, the Sangallo family, Baccio d?Agnolo, the Montelupo workshop, and others. A remarkable body of inventories reveals how the family's trials and tribulations shaped the fate of their estates and illustrates the role luxury goods played in the social ambitions of this newly-arrived family. Finally, a previously unknown catalogue of Palazzo Pucci tells the tale of the nineteenth-century dispersal of the family?s priceless Renaissance artworks, a collection that once paralleled the splendor of the Medici court. 600 30 $a Puccini family. 600 37 $a Puccini family. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00214189 650 0 $a Art patronage $z Florence $z Florence $x History. 650 0 $a Art $x History. $z Florence $z Florence $x History. 650 0 $a Architecture, Renaissance $z Florence. $z Florence. 651 0 $a Florence (Italy) $x History $y 1421-1737. 650 7 $a Architecture, Renaissance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00813917 650 7 $a Art patronage. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815756 650 7 $a Art $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815309 651 7 $a Italy $z Florence. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204699 648 7 $a 1421-1737 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Medici Archive Project series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317030807.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A94CCACECF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
