- Book Synopsis
- The original research in this book analyzes the artistic activity of Santi Gucci (1533- c.1600), a Florentine sculptor active in Poland in the second half of the sixteenth century, and his workshop.Chapters examine the organization of the artistic workshop (sculpting and masonry) and the model of the artist's functioning as an entrepreneur in Renaissance Poland, using Santi Gucci's activity as an example. Gucci shaped the image of Polish sculpture in the sixteenth century for more than 50 years, even though his work has not yet been fully examined. The author sets Gucci's emigration within the context of the cultural exchanges between Italy and Poland that contributed to the development of the Polish Renaissance.The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, Renaissance studies, architectural history and economic history.
