Uffenbachs Reisen III
J. F. A. von Uffenbach
In October 1714 the young Frankfurt patrician Johann Friedrich Armand von Uffenbach (1687–1769), later mayor of Frankfurt, set out from Colmar on the second part of his Grand Tour and kept a diary of everything he saw: libraries, collections, churches, scholars, inns, roads and ruins. Volume III: Florence and its Galleria, Pisa, Lucca and Genoa, back across the Mont Cenis to Geneva, Lyon and down the Loire, and Paris with Versailles and Marly – scholars, academies, libraries, the opera, the fair and the young Louis XV (July 1715 – February 1716). Edited from the typescript of the Göttingen manuscripts in modern German spelling by Bernhard Trebuch, with notes, Wikipedia links and page-precise links to the books Uffenbach cites. Reading sample: Florence and the Galleria.
