Episode 14 of Series “Il Etait Une Fois L’homme” (= “Once Upon a Time Man”).
The Quattrocento was a period of prosperity and steady progression in the arts toward the harmonious balance achieved in the High Renaissance. In concrete terms, the Quattrocento is regarded as beginning in 1401 with a competition to design the eastern doors for the Baptistery in Florence and ending in 1503 with the election of Cardinal Giuliano della Rovere as Pope Julius II.
