Abstract

All that is humanAbstractIn Historie florenckie Ewa Białkowska focuses on the vast cultural heritage of RenaissanceFlorence, however, she begins by mentioning a disastrous flood of the 1960s that couldhave easily ruined said heritage. The present article aims at presenting the main ideas ofthe book and more importantly to pinpoint those elements that contribute to its originality.Even though Historie florenckie focus mainly on showing the most important works of art ofTuscany’s capital, in their descriptions a vital role is played by identifying the relationshipbetween a piece of art and a human, between culture and society in which it is created. Theinteraction between human and art appears to be the most interesting aspect of the book.Keywords: Florence, travel, renaissance art
