Synopsis:

Telling the story of other lesser-known cities in Italy, Alison Cole has built a new vision of Italian Renaissance art around the concepts of the "virtue" of the artist and the "magnificence" of the ruler. Between the two splendid poles of Naples and Milan were a cluster of duchies and princely courts with fine artworks and remarkably innovative literature, music, and scientific studies. Alison Cole explores these extraordinary courts in the moments of their greatest brilliance, viewing them as the inheritors of a medieval courtly tradition.
