Summary: The story of the new façade of Florence Cathedral begins in 1587, when Francesco I commands the dismantlement of the Medieval façade and orders Buontalenti to design a new one. The works ran aground after the death of the Grand Duke, but started again in 1630, with the design of new models and a project by Pietro da Cortona. Nonetheless, opposing interests continued for centuries to deprive the Cathedral of a monumental façade. (Archivi di Santa Maria del Fiore, Studi e testi, 4)
