A delightfully fluid style supported by appropriate and often exquisitely detailed photographs make this book enjoyable for the specialist and more casual reader alike. One is guided through the architecture of an extraordinary but oft en underestimated figure of the Tuscan Renaissance. Previous studies on Antonio Federighi concentrated mainly on his activity as a sculptor, leaving aside his architectural work. In contrast this book, by the Canadian art historian Mirella Cirfi Walton, is specifically dedicated to Federighi as an architect.
