Descrição
The charitable activities carried out by the Buonomini di San Martino during the Quattrocento have been reasonably well documented by modern historians. Nevertheless, the patronage and financial aid bestowed on fifteenth-century Florentine artists and artisans by this lay confraternity remains unexplored. Accordingly, this article, by employing previously unpublished archival data, will demonstrate how the Buonomini used social networks to procure art- works for the confraternity. Furthermore, the investigation will estab- lish that the confraternity also provided financial aid to artists both famous and obscure who required temporary economic assistance.
