About This Book
This volume traces successive dukes of Urbino, recounting political and military episodes — including the sack of Rome, the erosion of Italian autonomy, and regional campaigns — alongside detailed biographical sketches, court intrigues, and dynastic succession. It then surveys the duchy’s cultural life, examining literary figures, academies, and painters and sculptors connected to the court, assesses factors in the decline of Italian art, and describes the manufacture of local majolica. Extensive appendices reproduce correspondence, official documents, inventories, and inscriptions that illuminate negotiations, military events, and the composition of the ducal collections.
