📗 Libro en inglés FLORENCE: THE CITY AND ITS ARCHITECTURE

This book offers a comprehensive account of the architecture of Florence, setting the city''s extraordinarily beautiful buildings within the political, economic, and cultural contexts in which they were made. The rapid expansion of its banking interests and its wool and textile industries brought Florence prosperity, and it became, under Medici power, the heart of the European Renaissance, and the sponsor of pivotal architectural works.
