Private Lives in Renaissance Venice PDF
By:Patricia Fortini Brown
Published on 2004 by Yale University Press
|As the sixteenth century opened, members of the patriciate were increasingly withdrawing from trade, desiring to be seen as |gentlemen in fact| as well as |gentlemen in name.| The author considers why this was so and explores such wide-ranging themes as attitudes toward wealth and display, the articulation of family identity, the interplay between the public and the private, and the emergence of characteristically Venetian decorative practices and styles of art and architecture. Brown focuses new light on the visual culture of Venetian women - how they lived within, furnished, and decorated their homes; what spaces were allotted to them; what their roles and domestic tasks were; how they dressed; how they raised their children; and how they entertained. Bringing together both high arts and low, the book examines all aspects of Renaissance material culture.|--BOOK JACKET.
