"That the 16th century should have produced the most palatial residences ever inhabited by prelates was but a natural outcome of the conditions then existing. The society of Rome was a hierarchical aristocracy made up of the younger sons of every powerful and ambitious family of Italy, and the red hat was so greatly desired not for the honour and emoluments of the cardinalcy per se but because it was a step to the papacy." --from the introduction. Architecture, Italy, Popes, Cardinals, Art, Sculpture. 112304A
