The Medici Godfathers of the Renaissance

The Medici: Godfathers of the Renaissance
The family that shaped art, power, and the birth of the modern world
In an age when Europe was awakening to the brilliance of art, science, and humanism, one family name rose above all others-The Medici. More than bankers or rulers, the Medici became architects of the Renaissance, using their immense wealth and political cunning to fuel the birth of modern culture.
This captivating book uncovers how the Medici rose from merchants to become the de facto rulers of Florence-invisible kings whose influence extended from the corridors of power to the studios of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli, and Galileo. Through intrigue, ambition, and extraordinary patronage, they transformed Florence into a beacon of art, knowledge, and innovation.
