内容説明

This volume explores an important phenomenon in Italian Renaissance art: the 15th- and early 16th-century flowering of the tondo (or circular) form in painting and sculpture, which represented the Renaissance ideal of the perfect form. This text aims to fill a gap in Florentine artistic and cultural history, collating documentary, textual, and artistic material with evidence and discoveries about patronage, location, function, and iconography. It also charts the patterns of tondi production and establishes their meaning within a cultural context. In explaining the iconography of specific tondi, the author illuminates a further facet of Renaissance culture: many of the analyses provide answers to previously puzzling issues. Technical information and bibliography is provided for each tondo, making a significant contribution to the understanding of this specific genre as well as to Italian Renaissance art and culture in general.
