Art Pursuits - Renaissance Florence

Art Pursuits Study Tour

Renaissance Florence

10-16 November 2008

Florence is one of Italy's most atmospheric cities, its striking churches and treasure-crammed galleries bearing witness to historic glory. Much of this was created under the Medici who gained control over the city's fortunes during the 15th and 16th centuries. Powerful politicians, enlightened patrons and avid collectors, they and their contemporaries brought about a unique re-birth of Classical culture, from Brunelleschi's great cathedral dome to Botticelli's spell-binding Primavera.
