New. Fine in publisher's cloth in like dust jacket.

Aesthetic issues are also discussed, and beautiful reproductions accompany the text. With its scholarly detail and specialized focus, this book will be of interest mostly to academic and research collections.AKathryn Wekselman, Univ. of Cincinnati Lib. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc. ... This richly illustrated book explores late medieval Sienese art and its celebration of the Virgin Mary as both an object of religious affection and a focus of civic pride. The author examines how art was created, commissioned, and understood by the citizens of Siena and the surrounding contado, and she offers a new understanding of Marian art and its political function as an expression of civic ideology.
