Art historian John Marchiari tells the story of Renaissance Rome, covering the period from 1300 to 1600. But this is not just a narrative of the beautiful buildings, sculptures, and paintings of the time, but a fascinating study of the relationship between artists and their patrons - the princes of the Church, secular rulers who depended to varying degrees on the personality of the pope. All of them, competing with each other for the right to be inscribed in the city's history, commissioned artists for more and more works, while the humanists desperately sought ways to recreate and preserve the ancient city for generations to come. John Marchiari shows how masterpieces of art were created amid the intrigue, hostility, and rivalry of papal Renaissance Rome. John Marchiari is a curator and specialist in Italian and Spanish Renaissance and Baroque art, especially the art of Rome, and the author of many works on the subject; he is head of the Drawing and Printmaking Department at the Morgan Library and Museum in New York.
