The Sack of Rome, 1527 Hardcover - 1983

by Chastel, Andre


From the publisher

From a leading art historian of Renaissance Italy, a compelling account of the artistic and cultural impact of the sack of sixteenth-century Rome In this illustrated account of the sack of Rome as a cultural and artistic phenomenon, Andr Chastel reveals the historical ambiguities of preceding events and the traumatic contrast between the flourishing world of art under Pope Clement VII and the city after it was looted in 1527 by the troops of Emperor Charles V. The book illuminates the cultural repercussions of the humiliation of Rome, emphasizing the spread or "Europeanization" of the Mannerist style by artists who fled the city--including Parmigianino, Rosso, Polidoro, Peruzzi, and Perino del Vaga. At the same time, Clement's critics used the infant media of printing and engraving to win over the populace with caricatures and satirical writings, while Rome responded with monumental works affirming the legitimacy of the pope's temporal power. Chastel explores both the world that was lost by the sack and the great works of art created during Rome's recovery.
