Description

Explore the hidden history of female influence in the Renaissance through this scholarly study by Sally Hickson. This book examines the artistic patronage of both famous and lesser known women in Mantua, offering a fresh look at the social, cultural, and religious impact of the city during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century. By analyzing the cult of female mystics, the text introduces new patronage paradigms that existed among women of this era. The research uses primary archival data and contextual analysis to explain how these women shaped their environment. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the religious climate and the role of female founders in religious orders through a detailed re-examination of visual objects. This work is an essential resource for those studying the history of women and gender in the early modern world. It provides a clear look at how altarpieces and architectural choices reflected the devotion to local beatae and saints, providing a window into the lives of the matrons, mystics, and residents of Renaissance Mantua.
