About This Book

A detailed, well-researched narrative chronicles the dukes and courts of Urbino, blending political events, personal anecdotes, and art-historical investigation to portray regional life and patronage. The author traces ruling families, military episodes, diplomatic maneuvers, and courtly society while documenting the assemblage and taste of painters, collectors, and men of letters. Drawing on archival sources, the work alternates between measured historical reportage and discursive, literary digressions, offering portraits of individuals and institutions and an account of how arms, arts, and literature interacted to shape the cultural identity of a central Italian principality.
