Venice Disputed: Marc'Antonio Barbaro and Venetian Architecture, 1550-1600

In the councils and magistracies of the Venetian Republic, politicians argued intently over civic building projects in a manner curiously reminiscent of a modern democracy. This title explores the complex dialectic between theory and practice, and between design and technology that infused these disputes.
