    First broadcast: Dec 2008.
    Documentary in which Andrew Graham-Dixon reveals how the Medici family transformed Florence through sculpture, painting and architecture and created a world where masterpieces fetch millions today.
    Without the money and patronage of the Medici we might never have heard of artists such as Donatello, Michelangelo or Botticelli. Graham-Dixon examines how a family of shadowy, corrupt businessmen, driven by greed and ambition, became the financial engine behind the Italian Renaissance.

    What a fasinating period of art history, intertwined with political ambition paved with money & religion.

      No, he recognised that the Medici were encouraging decadence as part of a "Bread & Circuses" policy to transform Florence from a republic to a de facto Medici monarchy.

    While in Catholic School in the 4th grade, I developed an intense dislike for the teacher who was of a catholic order, and I wasn't alone. The priest in this video at around 10:34 reminds me of same, a sanctimonious and arrogant character.

      I hear you but, I would just say to be cautious when applying your particular bad experience, with a catholic teacher, with anyone resembling that person. Not really fair to attribute such an unflattering character assessment to the priest because of what they say in 2 or 3 sentences.
      However, anyone who is in favour of book or art burning for "virtuous reasons" should be seriously questioned.

    The Poggio Villa is just so terrible w its lack of aesthetic balance, the interior bordering on kitsch; well win some, lose some Palladio made it right, later.
