While it has been traditionally viewed simply as the context for extraordinary artistic creativity, patronage has more recently been examined by historians and art historians alike as a comprehensive system of patron-client structures which permeated society and social relations. Focusing specifically on the city of Florence, these essays explore the new understanding of Renaissance Italy as a 'patronage society, ' considering its implications for the study of art patronage and patron-client structures wherever they occur.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47592038465687,"sku":"9780198219781","price":23163.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780198219781.webp?v=1774975822","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/patronage-art-and-society-in-renaissance-italy-9780198219781","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
