Through the reading of selected archival sources, this paper discusses the example of the city of Ferrara during the Este period (1471-1598) as an expression of a building tradition in which wood and stone are rare and expensive building materials. Technological innovations developed are attested not only by architectural heritage that has been preserved until today, but above all through archival sources produced by Este court between 15th and 16th centuries.

Abstract

Through the reading of selected archival sources, this paper discusses the example of the city of Ferrara during the Este period (1471-1598) as an expression of a building tradition in which wood and stone are rare and expensive building materials. Technological innovations developed are attested not only by architectural heritage that has been preserved until today, but above all through archival sources produced by Este court between 15th and 16th centuries.
