The court strategy promoted by Ferrante Gonzaga and his architect Domenico Giunti based on the Gonzaga Palace, the greatest example of civil architecture in 16th-century Milan. Moving from this extraordinary enterprise, the author investigates the ambitious program of renovatio urbis conceived in the style of the Renaissance prince: a model contradicting the institutional set-ups imposed by Charles V and a significant laboratory for a coherent "representation system" in the wake of the Roman examples of Raphael and Peruzzi.
