ISBN10: 0801852870, ISBN13: 9780801852879, [publisher: Brand: The Johns Hopkins University Press] Softcover In this first comprehensive study of patrons in the Italian quattrocento, Mary Hollingsworth shows how the patron--rather than the artist--carefully controlled both subject and medium in artistic creation. In a competitive and violent age, she explains, image and ostentation were essential statements of the patron's power. As a result, perceived cost became more important than artistic quality (and buildings, bronze, or tapestry were considered more eloquent statements than cheaper marble or fresco). Artists in the early Renaissance were employed as craftsmen, Hollingsworth concludes, and only late in the century did their relations with patrons start to adopt a pattern we might recognize today."Many readers, specialists and nonspecialists alike, will welcome this book as a reliable and straightforward introduction to an important and interesting subject."--Literary Review"A synthesis of the current state of knowledge about Renaissance patronage. The author is particularly well qualified to assess the amount of personal involvement of patrons, and she emphasizes the extent to which Lorenzo de Medici, Ercole d'Este, and Federigo da Montefeltro, as well as several Popes, can be considered their own 'architects.'"--Apollo

It will be of great interest to art historians and their students and to lovers of Renaissance art and civilization. -- At the start of the fifteenth century the patron, not the artist, was seen as the creator and he carefully controlled both subjeci and medium In a competitive and violent age, image and ostentation were essential statements of power. Buildings, bronz z or tapestry were much more eloquent statements than the cheaper marble or fresco. The artistic quality that concerns us was less important than perceived cost. The arts in any case were just part of a pattern of conspicuous expenditure which would have included for instance holy relics, manuscripts and jewels -all of which had the added advantage that they were portable and could be used as collateral for bank loans. -- Since Christian teaching frowned on wealth and power, money had also to be spent on religious endowments made in expiation But here too the patron was in control, and used the arts and other means to express religious belief, not aesthetic sensibility. -- Thus artists in the Early Renaissance were employed as craftsmen.
