SYNOPSIS
Published on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the start of the construction of the Château de Chambord, this volume offers a renewed perspective on the genesis of this masterpiece of the French Renaissance commissioned by Francis I. Bringing together contributions from specialists, the catalogue explores the political, artistic, and intellectual context of the 16th century, as well as the possible influence of Leonardo da Vinci, who died shortly before the project commenced.
READ MORE
Richly illustrated with nearly 150 works—illuminated manuscripts, drawings, models, art objects, and rare documents, including pages from the Codex Atlanticus—the book offers an in-depth exploration of the architecture and ambition of Chambord. It concludes with a forward-looking section featuring projects by contemporary architects who reinterpret the architectural utopia of the monument today.
