Description

Explore the unique world of Late Medieval paradise gardens with this study from Amsterdam University Press. This book examines the "enclosed gardens" created by religious women in the Low Countries during the era of Emperor Charles V. These rare works represent a specific type of mixed media art using recycled and remnant materials to express female devotion and spirituality. Known as a hortus conclusus, these gardens serve as representations of an ideal, paradisiacal world. The text details how these retables functioned, often featuring painted side panels and central sections filled with narrative sculpture. By looking at these anonymous works, readers gain insight into the spiritual lives and artistic contributions of women in the Late Middle Ages.
