Notes:Catalog of an exhibition held in Florence, Palazzo Strozzi, 17 September 2011-22 January 2012.
"Through the masterpieces of Botticelli, Filippo Lippi, Fra Angelico and Antonio del Pollaiolo, the exhibition documents the rise of the first Florentine bankers at the dawn of the Renaissance and the meshing of their financial and political power with civil society; a splendid period of cultural exchange and commercial development that would be interrupted by the new climate of severity introduced by Savonarola's sermons."--P. 11.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 263-281) and index.
