Petrarch's influence on the iconography of the Carrara Palace in Padua: the conflict between ancestral and antique themes in the fourteenth century

Door

Uittreksel

"This book examines Petrarch's relationship with Francesco il Vecchio d Carrara, lord of Padua, who was the poet's host during his final years (1367-74), and for whom he started to rewrite his great work of Roman history, the De Viris Illustribus. The exemplary prupose of this text was extended in the form of a major fresco cycle in the Sala Virorum Illustrium of the Carrara palace in Padua, the Reggia."--Publisher's description.
