Italian-English text. Summary: A portraitist for Grand Tour travellers in eighteenth century Florence, Violante Siriès Cerroti secured coveted commissions from the powerful Medici and Gondi dynasties. Her paintings – many of which have never been published before – grace Italy’s palaces, monasteries, and private collections. Her masterwork in the Florentine church of Santa Maria Maddalena de’ Pazzi was damaged by the Arno’s flooding in 1966, and its recent restoration has opened the door to rediscovering this magnificent artist.
