FLORENCE ART AND ARCHITECTURE -- PART 1


THE MOST VIVID PHOTOGRAPHY AND WRITING EVER PUBLISHED ON THE RENAISSANCE AND BEYOND

Whether you have visited Florence just once, or stay in the fabled Italian Renaissance city annually, you remain overwhelmed by the amount of art and architecture.

Florence is not that big of a city, but its museums, cathedrals and ancient streets are repositories of hundreds of thousands of significant pieces of art and architecture.

No matter how many notes you took, no matter how many images you brought home on a digital storage card -- you return with a thirst for more information.

Florence Art and Architecture, an astounding 500-plus-page book published by H.F. Ullmann, truly is the only body capable of quenching your thirst for knowledge.

The book is huge -- nearly 10 inches by 12 inches in size and about five pounds in weight.

Its stock is beyond luxurious.

The pages feel almost like photo paper.

And the reproduction on that high grade stock is astounding.
