FREE WEBINAR | “Italy’s Great Artists: Lorenzo Ghiberti”
Presented by Dr. Rocky Ruggiero

Join Dr. Rocky for this free webinar on Lorenzo Ghiberti, one of the most important sculptors of the Italian Renaissance. Trained as a goldsmith, Ghiberti produced an extraordinary array of bronze sculptures that adorn Florence’s most important buildings. In 1401, Ghiberti exploded onto the Florentine art scene by winning the competition for the commission of a set of bronze doors for Florence Baptistry. These doors, now known as the “North Doors,” lead to Ghiberti receiving a contract for a second set of bronze doors known as the “Gates of Paradise” that are often described as the world’s most beautiful and famous doors.

The webinar will include a 45-minute lecture followed by 15-minutes of Q&A.
