Florence doit l'essentiel de son paysage monumental à l'ère de Dante et de Giotto. Mais c'est au XVe siècle qu'elle devient pour les maîtres italiens un centre privilégié où s'épanouissent les arts et les sciences sur des bases nouvelles. Regroupés en ateliers et en corporations, portés par le mécénat des grandes familles, recherchant en particulier la protection des Médicis, architectes et sculpteurs, peintres et orfèvres participent à cette renaissance avec bonheur et fierté. La peinture avec Masaccio, Fra Angelico, Botticelli, Paolo Uccello, Piero della Francesca et enfin Verrocchio, la sculpture et l'architecture de Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, Donatello ou Luca della Robia, connaissent un essor fantastique. Les palais, les églises, mais aussi l'union de l'art avec la science témoignent, dans l'enthousiasme, de l'immense renouveau de la création artistique

Between 1289 and 1327 Siena witnessed a series of lavish ceremonial events marking the visits to the city of successive Angevin kings and princes, members of the French dynasty that ruled the whole of southern Italy. The reason for these magnificent civic rituals was Siena’s status as a Guelph city state closely allied both to the papacy and to the kingdom of Naples. Based on extensive new research, including unpublished archival material, Diana Norman explores in detail the nature and extent of this distinctive political and diplomatic relationship and the ways in which it impacted upon the production and dissemination of Sienese art during the first half of the fourteenth century. In so doing, she demonstrates that this relationship not only informed the conception and resolution of a number of major pictorial schemes for key civic sites in Siena itself, but that it also familiarised the Angevin royal family with the quality of contemporary Sienese art. This, in turn, led to the employment of Sienese artists by the Angevins and to the production of significant images that commemorated various members of the dynasty. In this beautifully illustrated book, works of art executed by well-known fourteenth-century artists - including Simone Martini, Ambrogio Lorenzetti, and Tino di Camaino - are examined in a new light, together with other finely crafted objects produced by lesser known artists, all of whom contributed to this hitherto over-looked example of late medieval cultural exchange
