Synopsis

Scopri Santa Maria del Fiore: una storia di Firenze dal passato medievale a una cattedrale simbolo della citt�.

Questo libro guida il lettore attraverso la nascita della chiesa maggiore, la costruzione della cupola e i lavori che ne hanno segnato la bellezza esterna ed interna. Dal protagonismo degli operai alle decisioni dei magistrati cittadini, il testo racconta come arte, architettura e storia si intreccino in questo grande monumento fiorentino.

Attraverso descrizioni precise e documentate, viene esplorata la pianta a croce latina, le tre navate, le cupole e le decorazioni, con attenzione alle figure scolpite, ai mosaici e alle opere dei maestri che hanno plasmato la facciata e gli interni. L’opera rende accessibile il racconto di Giotto, Donatello, Ghiberti e altri artisti, oltre a fornire contesto storico sulle contese tra Chiesa e Impero che hanno influenzato i lavori nel corso dei secoli.

La storia delle fasi costruttive e delle decisioni della Repubblica fiorentina.
Le sculture, i mosaici e le decorazioni che adornano la facciata e le navate.
Il ruolo degli artisti e dei committenti, con curiosit� sui lavori e sui materiali.
Dettagli architettonici e viste d’insieme della cattedrale, dalla base alla sommit�.

Ideal per chi ama l’arte, l’architettura e la storia di Firenze, e cerca una guida chiara al patrimonio della cattedrale e alle sue opere d’arte.
