The guide dedicated to the Museum of San Marco is a valuable resource for anyone wishing to deepen their knowledge of one of the most evocative and spiritually significant sites of the Italian Renaissance, a place of fundamental importance to the artistic and cultural history of Florence.
\nFounded by the Silvestrine Congregation, the complex underwent a major transformation in the fifteenth century under the direction of Michelozzo, commissioned by Cosimo de\u2019 Medici the Elder, and became the Florentine stronghold of the Observant Dominican Order. Among its members was Fra Giovanni da Fiesole, better known as Fra Angelico (Beato Angelico), the undisputed protagonist of the convent\u2019s fifteenth-century decoration and the creator of some of the most outstanding paintings of the age. Alongside this indispensable figure and his masterpieces, visitors will also discover the richness of the museum\u2019s other collections: the atmospheric Lapidary Museum, works by Fra Bartolomeo, Ridolfo del Ghirlandaio, and the Dominican painter-nun Suor Plautilla Nelli, as well as the precious illuminated manuscripts preserved in the library.
\nThrough the texts of Elisabetta Berti and Marco Mozzo, complemented by a rich selection of illustrations, this guide accompanies readers on a journey through the Museum of San Marco as it presents itself today, at the threshold of the third millennium: a living place, capable of harmoniously combining the memory of its past with the vitality of the present.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[712,713],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-36176","product","type-product","status-publish","product_cat-books","product_cat-guides","desktop-align-left","tablet-align-left","mobile-align-left","ast-product-gallery-layout-horizontal","ast-product-gallery-with-no-image","ast-product-single-variable","ast-product-tabs-layout-horizontal","ast-qv-on-image","first","outofstock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
