About this title: The building of the famous dome of the cathedral in Florence, Santa Maria del Fiore, inaugurated the equally famous feud between its designer--Filippo Brunelleschi--and his arch rival, the sculptor Lorenzo Ghiberti. From this clash of temperaments, the author tells us, a new way of looking at art and the world was born--and hence the Renaissance.

"Fascinating account of the feud between Brunellesci (same as in Brunelleschi's Dome) and its consequences: Brunelleschi's revolutionizing painting and architecture, helping add to the gathering wave of the Renaissance."
"This was a follow up to Brunellechi's Dome, but I liked the original better, although this dealt with some additional historical bits, so it was worth it."
"More a biography of Brunelleschi than a story of a feud between artists. Also, the notion of a fued between these two mostly is in the author's mind, withe the author clearly favoring Brunelleschi. That said, it was interesting and informative and written well."
