Description
"Spanning two centuries and two continents, [book title] addresses the impact of religious tensions on art, design, and architecture in the early modern world. ... Questions of art's destruction, preservation, and censorship are discussed against the ever-present backdrop of religious conflict and varying degrees of tolerance. New information and original perspectives demonstrate the ways in which art illuminates history, and the close links between the changing values of a society and the images it displays to represent itself."--Book jacket.
