Petrarca und die bildenden Kunste: Dialoge, Spiegelungen, Transformationen

Petrarca war ein italienischer Dichter, der sich intensiv mit den bildenden Künsten seiner Zeit auseinandergesetzt hat. Er besaß ein Madonnenbild von Giottos und beauftragte Simone Martini mit dem einzigartigen Frontispiz seines Vergilcodex. Seine Werke sind Schlüsseltexte für die Entdeckung der Landschaft und die humanistische Villenkultur, die weibliche Porträt und die Triumphikonographie der Renaissance und des Barock. Der mit Petrarca verbundene Mythos des Dichterfürsten bietet bis in die Moderne eine produktive Projektionsfläche für Literaten und Künstler.
