Alison Cole, a Renaissance scholar and editor-in-chief of the British publication The Art Newspaper, explores an era when high art and power merged in a strange symbiosis. Five powerful families in Italy, ruling the city-states of Naples, Urbino, Ferrara, Mantua, and Milan in the 15th century, used patronage of the arts as a tool to strengthen their power and bolster their authority in their rivalries with each other and other European powers. Italian geniuses—from Mantegna and Pisanello to Bramante and Leonardo da Vinci—created a unique "courtly" style for their patrons. Drawing on the latest research, Alison Cole paints a vivid picture of the complex relationships between artists and rulers and reveals Renaissance art from a unique perspective.
