Physical description; 95 p. : ill. (chiefly col.) ; 31 cm. Summary; "With this exhibition we break the silence that has artificially surrounded one of the greatest masterpieces of Early Renaissance Florence: Luca della Robbia's Cantoria. This silence has never regarded the quality or historical significance of Luca's famed organ loft - far from it, in fact. Since its installation in Florence Cathedral in 1438, Luca's Cantoria - his first documented work - has been recognized as an undisputed masterpiece, epitomizing the classical spirit of the Renaissance." Subjects; Robbia, Luca della 1400?-1482. — Cantoria — Exhibitions. Robbia, Luca della — Studies. — Cantoria. Santa Maria del Fiore (Cathedral : Florence, Italy) — Exhibitions.
