Today, many of these faces are lost, and our understanding of what they comprised is frighteningly incomplete. This book offers a refreshed look at this often-forgotten facet of Renaissance visual culture to reignite interest in the tradition before its last remnants disappear. In addition to offering a new compilation of these documented fa�ades, this book also places new emphasis on the making and meaning of these \"painted faces\" to provide new insights into the place of the decorated fa�ade at the intersections of patron identity and painterly innovation in a city working tirelessly to reinvent itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47961077350551,"sku":"9781041187905","price":4133.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781041187905.webp?v=1782822643","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-frescoed-facade-in-renaissance-roman-visual-culture-9781041187905","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
