Excerpt from The General Biographical Dictionary, Vol. 22: Containing an Historical and Critical Account of the Lives and Writings of the Most Eminent Persons in Every Nation
The services of Lorenzo to the fine arts were not less con~ spicuous than those which be rendered to letters, by augment ing his father's collection of the remains of antient taste and skill. It is not, however, on this account Only that he is entitled to the esteem of the professors and admirers of the arts. He determined to excite, among his Countrymen, a good taste, and, by proposing to their imitation the te mains of the ancient masters, to elevate their views beyond the forms of common life, to this contemplation of that ideal beauty which alone distinguishes works of art from mere mechanical productions. With this view he appro priated his gardens in Florence to the establishment of an academy for the study of the antique, which be furnished with a profusion of statues, busts, and other relies of art.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and works of two prominent citizens of Florence during the Italian Renaissance. The first was a wealthy merchant and politician named Cosmo de Medici, who played a key role in shaping the city's political landscape. The second was his grandson, Lorenzo de Medici, a poet, scholar, and patron of the arts who is widely regarded as one of the most important figures in the Italian Renaissance. The author examines the lives and contributions of these two men against the backdrop of the tumultuous political and cultural climate of Florence during the 15th century, providing a rich and nuanced portrait of one of the most fascinating periods in European history. The work offers deep insights into the political machinations, cultural achievements, and social transformations that characterized this era, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars of Renaissance Italy.
