These essays lead scholars in a new and exciting direction in the study of the art of Renaissance Siena, exploring the cultural dynamics of the city and its art in a specifically Sienese context. This volume shapes a new understanding of Sienese culture in the early modern period and defines the questions scholars will continue to ask for years to come. What emerges is a picture of Renaissance Siena as a city focused on meeting the challenges of the time while formulating changes to shape its future. Central to these changes are the city's efforts to fashion a civic identity through the visual arts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Truman State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47892108640407,"sku":"9781931112420","price":5185.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781931112420.webp?v=1781185762","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/renaissance-siena-9781931112420","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
