摘要：The aim of this paper is to present the less known phenomenon of late-Gothic Mantuan architecture in the second half of the 15th century. Indeed Mantua is famous for its Renaissance monuments. However, some of the Gonzaga palaces show Gothic details, such as towers or battlements. In addition, some patricians, merchants, and priests continued to follow the Gothic tradition until the final decade of the "Quattrocento". This paper will present a first list of these interesting architectures—-both public and private, religious and profane—-which, in some cases and despite the Gothic language, the archival research has demonstrated a late 15th century executions.
