Conférence: “The Medici and the Dominicans”, Florence, Palazzo Alberti, 30 janvier 2026, à 9h15

In partnership with the the Library and Archive of Santa Maria Novella (Florence), the academic journal Memorie Domenicane, and the Leonine Commission (Paris), the Medici Archive Project is organizing a one-day international conference on the relationship between the Medici (both the merchant-bankers of the quattrocento and the grand dukes of the later centuries) and the mendicant order founded by Dominic de Guzmán at the beginning of the thirteenth century.

This conference intends to reassess this complex relationship—sometimes symbiotic, often strained—that indelibly marked the history of Florence. The papers presented will address the interpenetration between artistic production and patronage, religious dissent, political crises, book and print history, and humanist and scientific discourse.
