Francesco d’Ubertino Verdi (1494-1557), detto Bachiacca (o anche Bacchiacca), produsse per la corte medicea opere d’arte mpio studio affronta i vari generi dell’opera di Bachiacca e dimostra che, al contrario di quanto sostenuto dalla storiografia d’arte, fu un gusto cosmopolita e non solo un’ambizione nazionalista ad ispirare la cultura pittorica del ’500. Il volume include un catalogo ed un’appendice documentaria.
Francesco d’Ubertino Verdi (1494-1557), nicknamed Bachiacca, (or also Bacchiacca)provided the Medici court and privileged Florentine patrons with opulent works of art that combined the figural inventiveness of Italian artists with lush northern European landscapes. This comprehensive study of Bachiacca’s work in all media explicates the artist’s distinctive, hybrid style and demonstrates that cosmopolitan tastes, not nationalist narratives, inspired the vibrant pictorial culture of Renaissance Florence. It includes a catalog and documentary appendices.
