The Renaissance period represent the golden age of the Mantuan court. Isabella d’Este, Francesco II and Federico II wrote and received a voluminous amount of letters from their falconers. Giancarlo Malacarne has skilfully and systematically analysed this correspondence and having identified the fundamental aspects of the art of falconry in the age of the Gonzaga, he organises this fascinating documentation into a unique book, enlivened with humour and perception. Page after page, the readers could join the world of falconry at the Gonzaga court directly through the vivid and real words of their key players and discover what were the most desired hawks, the number of falcons exchanges as gifts, the health and disease that affected these magnificent birds of prey and the incredible hunts that were organized.
