Originally published in 2019, this comprehensive book delves into a pivotal historical era, offering a unique perspective on Renaissance architecture as the tangible embodiment of political and economic transformation. Through vivid illustrations, it elucidates how shifts in architectural style and design mirrored the complex interplay of Northern and Central Italy's external and internal conflicts, the evolution of urban and regional governance, and the surge of economic and demographic growth. Spanning the entirety of the Renaissance period, Balchin traces the medieval roots of this transformative era and its gradual metamorphosis into Mannerist and Baroque tendencies. He compellingly demonstrates how architectural and planning developments were intricately intertwined with political and economic power, and how these dynamics evolved across different cities throughout time. This insightful work sheds light on the intricate connections between architecture, power, and society during the Renaissance, providing a rich and detailed account of this pivotal historical period.
