Multi-Media Spectacle in Renaissance Florence

Wednesday Lecture, on Zoom and at the British Institute Library

by  Kate Bolton-Porciatti

 

Renaissance Florence was frequently the stage for sacred music-dramas and multi-media spectacles showcasing Florentine ingenuity and creativity. Used variously to teach biblical stories, to celebrate weddings or as political propaganda for the Medici, they dazzled onlookers with special effects, music, dance, lavish sets and costumes.
