Publisher Description:
Art historians and historians approach the history of the Bibliotheca Hertziana from a variety angles. Their analysis takes into account the historical context and provides the reader with a fascinating insight into the panorama of the social changes that have taken place over the course of the last 100 years. These are reflected in the twists and turns of the fate of one of the world's most important research institutions on the history of Italian art and its protagonists. The historical development of the architectural ensemble has forged a close connection between the Bibliotheca Hertziana and the genius loci of the art capital that is Rome. The exploration of these buildings - from the residential palace of the "prince of painters" Federico Zuccari, with its famous frescos, to the modern library building by the great Spanish Juan Navarro Baldeweg - constitutes an important contribution to our understanding of the history of Rome's art, architecture, and urban development.
