Adventures in ‘artigianato’
Lecture in English by Eve Borsook
The author of by far the best English-language guide to Florence (1966 and many later editions), Eve Borsook has recently made a study of the beautiful ‘arte povera’ (Klosterkunst) produced in 16th- and 17th-century convents and monasteries. Here she presents her surprising findings.
