Description

Explore a new historical narrative of Orsanmichele in the era before the Renaissance. This scholarly work examines the transformation of the piazza starting from the mid-thirteenth century, when it became the central grain market for the city. By looking at the site from social, economic, political, and artistic perspectives, the book provides a deep understanding of how the market and its tandem confraternity functioned together. Readers will find detailed information regarding the Florentine grain trade and specific sales data from the market. The text explores the connection between traders, political leaders, and the confraternity, including the history of the stunning Madonnas positioned over three successive loggias. This volume is an essential resource for those studying the development of medieval Mediterranean urban centers and the complex relationships that shaped historical commerce and religious life.
