Documents mostly new relating to Florentine painters and sculptors of the Fifteenth century

With this essay the author wanted to publish the tax declarations (Portate al Catasto) of the most important Quattrocento artists and their subscriptions to the Florentine guilds. Lorenzo Ghiberti’s tax declarations for the years 1427, 1430, 1433, 1442, 1446, 1451 and 1457 are transcribed, just like his subscription to the Guild of Masters of Stone and Wood (Arte dei Maestri di Pietra e Legname, in 1426) and to the Compagnia di San Luca (in 1423).
