It was founded in 1650 by Leopoldo de' Medici, and his heir Cosimo III expanded and reorganized it. Assisted by a network of agents and guided by empirical research criteria, the two patrons acquired only genuine self-portraits. The outcome was a unique, special collection closely linked to the epistemological approaches of the 17th century. Anna Maria Jonietz is the first to analyze the art-theoretical and academic-historical aspects of the 'Galleria.' She sheds light on the strategies of showing and convincing and demonstrates how the historical exhibition concept enabled a visual study of art and its history.","brand":"De Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57260384977240,"sku":"9783689241216","price":84.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/die-selbstbildnissammlung-der-medici-1650-1723","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
