Florentiner Sgraffito-Dekorationen des 14. und 15. Jahrhunderts
In the 14th and 15th centuries, the outer walls of numerous palaces, churches and public buildings in Florence were decorated in sgraffito, a design based on the scratching of motifs into the plaster surface. Among the most prominent examples are the courtyards of the Medici Palace and the Palazzo della Signoria. The study examines the history of the technology and the practical execution, considers the status as an (architectural) image and gives an overview of the use of sgraffito in other Italian cities. The detailed catalogue includes 34 Florentine buildings with sgraffito decorations executed in the Tre- and Quattrocento.
