Description
"The brothers Giulio, Antonio and Vincenzo Campi were the leading artists in the North Italian town of Cremona in the second half of the sixteenth century. They supplied religious paintings to a wide range of clients both in their hometown and elsewhere in the dukedom of Milan. Their work stands out for its unusual choice of subject matter, a high degree of naturalism, and a directly accessible presentation." "With the religious paintings of the Campi brothers as its point of departure, this book explores the way pictorial representations were used in the context of the Catholic Reform. Ample attention to the original public of the paintings brings to light the role these works played in the religious perception of their earliest users."--Jacket.
