Description

Explore the significant history of medieval Italian painting through this scholarly study by Marius Hauknes. Published by Cambridge University Press, this volume focuses on the remarkable thirteenth-century frescoes found in the Aula Gotica of Rome's Santi Quattro Coronati complex. These works, discovered in 1995, represent some of the most important vestiges of art from this era. Hauknes provides a thorough investigation of the fresco cycle, examining allegorical representations of the liberal arts, the virtues and vices, the seasons, the zodiac signs, and the months of the year. The text connects these visual subjects to the growing interest of the papacy in worldly knowledge, including medicine, astrology, music, and the study of time. This book offers a deep look into the relationship between medieval art and the political and intellectual interests of the Roman papacy.
