Carlo Borromeo and the Sacred Image in Sixteenth-Century Italy

A Reformer's Itinerary

Omschrijving

Exploring the social roles of images in late sixteenth-century Italy, this book demonstrates that the pressures of Catholic reform increased, rather than limited, the authority of the image. It follows the reformer Carlo Borromeo (d. 1584) into a world of powerful images that includes miraculous images, famous altarpieces, and popular prints.
