Art history dishes

While in Florence, I tried a dish I'd never come across before, Peposo. Made of beef, slow cooked and with a multitude of herbs and spices, it was invented by Brunelleschi to feed the workers building the Duomo. It's completely delicious, and if you're ever visiting the Pitti, you can try some at the Trattoria La Casalinga, just around the corner.
Anybody know of any other art history dishes?
