Description

Explore the intersection of art and politics in fourteenth-century Venice with this scholarly work from Harvard University Press. During the dogeship of Andrea Dandolo (1343-1354), Venice navigated a period of intense upheaval, including earthquakes, disease, and military conflicts. Despite these challenges, the Venetian government launched major artistic projects in San Marco. This book examines how the republic used ambitious artistic campaigns to respond to political and institutional tensions. It focuses on specific masterpieces created during this era, including a new baptistery, a reliquary-chapel, and a folding altarpiece. Part of the Dumbarton Oaks Studies, this text provides a detailed look at how art functioned during a time of Mediterranean power shifts and social crisis.
