Paris, the city of lights, city of Love or the city of exceptional cuisine, history-rich streets, and museum culture? Here are several must do’s when in Paris.
Medici und Fugger – innerhalb von wenigen Generationen stiegen sie zu den reichsten und mächtigsten Bankiersfamilien ihrer Zeit auf. Im europäischen Machtspiel nahmen sie entscheidende Schlüsselpositionen ein. Durch ihr Mäzenatentum prägten sie in beispielloser Form ihre Heimatstädte, Florenz und Augsburg. Ein Vergleich zwischen Cosimo I. de’ Medici und Anton Fugger zeigt, dass sich trotz ungleicher Machtpositionen die Gründe für ihr ausgeprägtes Mäzenatentum kaum unterscheiden. Beide wussten, welche herausragende Bedeutung die Förderung von Kunst und Wissenschaft für den Erhalt und die Ausweitung ihrer Macht sowie für die Reputation der Familie hatte. Diese Studie zeigt durch die vergleichende, differenzierte Perspektive das Profil dieser mächtigen Familien im 16. Jahrhundert.

La sua edificazione fu promossa dalla regina Maria de' Medici, quando suo figlio Luigi XIII divenne maggiorenne e quindi cessò la sua reggenza. Volle un palazzo in una zona allora periferica, un po' come aveva fatto la sua lontana parente Caterina de' Medici con il Palazzo delle Tuileries. L'aspetto del palazzo, realizzato da Salomon de Brosse dal 1617, ricorda sia Palazzo Pitti di Firenze (per l'uso del bugnato) sia una villa di campagna, circondata dai vasti Giardini del Lussemburgo. L'edificio, importante esempio di architettura barocca francese, ha una pianta a U con un porticato al pian terreno e due ali laterali dove erano alloggiati gli appartamenti privati della famiglia reale
