Art and Society in Italy, 1350-1500 by Evelyn S Welch

This text presents a fresh picture of the Italian Renaissance. It discusses a range of works, examines the issues of materials, workshop practices, and artist-patron relationships, and explores the ways in which visual imagery related to contemporary sexual, social and political behaviour.
