Pontormo’s table. Recipes from great chefs classic ingredients and artistic inspirations

21,00

In April of 2014, world-renowned chefs from twenty of Tuscany’s top

restaurants and hotels – as well as a clergyman from the Certosa of

Florence – arrived at Palazzo Strozzi in the heart of Florence to visit

the exhibition Pontormo and Rosso Fiorentino: Diverging Paths of Mannerism. This

singular experience led to a publishing project, sponsored by the Palazzo

Strozzi Foundation and intended to further celebrate the exhibition. Art

historian Ludovica Sebregondi pored over the painter’s diary to reveal his

almost obsessive habit of recording what he ate and drank; Italian food

journalist Annamaria Tossani asked the chefs to create recipes based on

the diary and paintings of the artist Pontormo. For the chefs, the diary’s

most important lesson corresponds to the old motto, “Eat well using

simple, local ingredients.”
