This book examines the sociocultural networks between the courts of early modern Italy and Europe, focusing on the Florentine Medici court, and the cultural patronage and international gendered networks developed by the Grand Duchess of Tuscany, Vittoria della Rovere.

Adelina Modesti uses Grand Duchess Vittoria as an exemplar of pan-European 'matronage' and proposes a new matrilineal model of patronage in the early modern period, one in which women become not only the mediators but also the architects of public taste and the transmitters of cultural capital. The book will be the first comprehensive monographic study of this important cultural figure.

This study will be of interest to scholars working in art history, gender studies, Renaissance studies and seventeenth-century Italy.



This book examines the socio-cultural networks between the courts of Italy and Europe, focusing on the Florentine Medici court, and the international gendered cultural networks developed by Grand Duchess of Tuscany, Vittoria della Rovere.

Recenzijos

"Meticulously researched ... This thought-provoking examination of Vittoria della Roveres cultural and gendered patronage is a welcome addition to the ongoing discussions of the Medici women and the Medici family and to the flourishing scholarly discourse on women leaders, their patronage networks, their patronage, and, most importantly, their matronage."
