Abstract

This article examines the role of the Vallombrosan congregation in the flourishing of artistic activity in Florence during the 15^th and 16^th centuries. By considering the renewal of artworks in the churches of Santa Trinita and San Pancrazio, it offers an interpretative framework for the artistic choices made by the Vallombrosan monks and the families who were patrons of the churches. The Vallombrosan congregation is positioned at the centre of a local network of artists and patrons, re-evaluated as a key node within a broader artistic and social network in the urban context of Florence and beyond.
