'The essays are uniformely well written and researched and are greatly helped by the numerous illustrations.' Contemporary Review '... makes a ground-breaking and important contribution not only to our understanding of the art and architecture of the church of Santa Maria Donna Regina but indeed the larger artistic and cultural context of early modern Naples.' Aislinn Loconte, Renaissance Journal 'Here is a real jewel: an exemplary collaboration that has produced a prolific study of a forgotten Trecento masterpiece. This book on the surprisingly well-preserved Church of Santa Maria Donna Regina contains studies in social and religious history and in royal patronage in Naples during the late Middle Ages. The broad cultural exposition serves as the setting for a marvelous anthology of masterly studies of the artistic expressions of this patronage. The book is of extreme importance for any lover of art history.' Renaissance Quarterly '... this collection of essays [is] extremely unified, and an enormously useful, genuinely collaborative, research enterprise...The numerous black-and-white and colour images of the church and its decoration, often of far better quality than anything previously available, add to the usefulness of this book as a scholarly resource.'
