	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Montefeltro

	Marche Voyager - Duke Federico of Montefeltro
		Federico da Montefeltro was born in 1422 to a small-time noble family that ruled over an insignificant square of the chess-board that was then central Italy.
		Yet within sixty years he had become "the light of Italy" and the paradigm of Renaissance man, as skilled in letters as in arms.
		On his death in 1508, the Dukedom passed to the Della Rovere family and Urbino's decline began; the light was finally extinguished in 1631 when the last Duke handed the Duchy to the Papal States - its palace stripped of its treasures, Urbino sank into unbroken torpor.

	Prince Federico da Montefeltro and his Son by BERRUGUETE, Pedro
		The great condottiere, Federigo di Montefeltro, duke of Urbino, had summoned Joos van Gent to decorate the library and study of his magnificent palace with allegories of the liberal arts and portraits of Biblical and pagan thinkers.
		Berruguete may have collaborated with him, but there is no doubt that the allegories and many of the more vigorous portraits of the series are by his hand alone (National Gallery, London, and the Louvre).
		Moreover, he also painted the hands of the portrait of Montefeltro in the famous picture by Piero della Francesca in the Brera Gallery, Milan.

		The problem of Federico’s relations with the papacy and the emergence of an important state, despite geographical fragmentation and local autonomy in matters of taxation, administration and jurisdiction, have to be explained in terms of what Chittolini points to as underlying the legend of Federico: mercenary contracts, building enterprises, and the court.
