Vasari (1511-1574) is the author of the precious and very famous collection, The Lives of the Best Italian Painters, Sculptors and Architects (Le Vite de 'più eccellenti pittori, scultori e architettori italiani) (1550-1570). He is the first to use the term Renaissance to describe his time. This work is of fundamental importance because it poses the methodological premises of the History of art. It brings together the biographies of the Italian painter from Cimabue to Michelangelo. In addition, Vasari will realize for the Medici the corridor that will link the Palazzo Vecchio to the Palazzo Pitti.
