- Abstract
Since the 12th century, the commercial growth, increasingly important in the Italian cities, favored the ascension of a powerful social group. This group’s wealth also was based in the financial capital. During the next centuries, Florence became an important urban center with the population growth. The political domain belonged to the important families in which the Médicis are distinguished, whose patronage ensured the artistic and cultural developing in the city. Such circumstances allowed an artistic movement without precedents and made Florence a point of convergences for painters, sculptures and architects. The art, before confined in churches, conquered the public and private spaces as the important families’ sumptuous palaces. In this context, this research aims to study the Saint Roman Battle, triptych painted by Paolo di Dono, ditto Ucello. After a succession of owners, hard to be determined, the panels ended being part of Lorenzo Médicis’ patrimony. Nowadays, the triptych is dismembered and it’s found in three different museums in Europe. It’s searched to investigate the artistic and cultural content in these panels and to follow the History as well as the different spectator’s perspectives about it.
