Reviews
'The three women at the center of the book are deserving of this focus and study, and there is a lot of excellent new material here. The focus on rituals, on pilgrimage, on display of relics, gives this study a broader set of issues to consider than simply art patronage; and the emphasis on the visual character of events such as weddings, entries, festivals, processions, and funerals is especially welcome.' Ann Roberts, Lake Forest College, USA 'While the Medici women as the subject of patronage studies (artistic and political) is not new, Sanger’s focus on their religious devotion aligned with patronage, and the comparative model adopted, make this study an important addition to the literature.' Renaissance Quarterly
