The art, history and architecture of Florentine churches

Churches and palaces in Florence have been the subject matter of book-length, often multi-volume studies over the centuries.

This book is a compendium of the main churches in Florence and has been written with two distinct audiences in mind: English-speaking students of Renaissance art, architecture, literature and history and the well-read traveller to Florence who wishes to place the works of art and architecture into the wider context of Italian culture.
