Publisher Description:
The goldsmith's art has always characterised Florence's culture and life. Since the 12th century, Florence, within the Art Guilds, held the primacy in goldsmith's art production that conjugated, together with the Silk Guild of Por Santa Maria, precious materials with fascinating workmanship. The exhibition "Arte Orafa a Firenze, la Cultura di un Mestiere," which took place within the 70th International Craftsmanship Exhibition in the Grotte of the Fortezza da Basso, presented the history and excellent production of this Florentine craftsmanship. Here, goldsmith and silversmith arts are on show together to represent the high value that is given to jewels and accessories and to the history and evolution of this art, as our training institutes demonstrate presenting models of different historical periods and pieces by master artists and sculptors. Italian and English texts.
