The Thun-Hohenstein Album by Chassica Kirchhoff
The first extensive study of the depiction of the armour in the Thun-Hohenstein Album, in the vibrant artistic and cultural contexts that created it.
Chassica Kirchhoff's book is a welcome original approach to a series of images, which, while very valuable for the study of armour, cannot be reduced to this simple documentary useI recommend this book not only to armour scholars and enthusiasts, but also to anyone studying Renaissance art, where armour deserves to have its rightful place. * ARMS & ARMOUR *
