The concept of the medieval city is fixed in the modern imagination, conjuring visions of fortified walls, towering churches, and winding streets. In Riemenschneider in Rothenburg, Katherine M. Boivin investigates how medieval urban planning and artistic programming worked together to form dynamic environments, demonstrating the agency of objects, styles, and spaces in mapping the late medieval city.Using altarpieces by the famed medieval artist Tilman Riemenschneider as touchstones for her argument, Boivin explores how artwork in Germany’s preeminent medieval city, Rothenburg ob der Tauber, deliberately propagated civic ideals. She argues that the numerous artistic pieces commissioned by the city’s elected council over the course of two centuries built upon one another, creating a cohesive structural network that attracted religious pilgrims and furthered the theological ideals of the parish church. By contextualizing some of Rothenburg’s most significant architectural and artistic works, such as St. James’s Church and Riemenschneider’s Altarpiece of the Holy Blood, Boivin shows how the city government employed these works to establish a local aesthetic that awed visitors, raising Rothenburg’s profile and putting it on the pilgrimage map of Europe.Carefully documented and convincingly argued, this book sheds important new light on the history of one of Germany’s major tourist destinations. It will be of considerable interest to medieval art historians and scholars working in the fields of cultural and urban history.

"In The Choir Altarpieces of Santo Spirito, 1480-1510, Antonia Fondaras reunites the fifteenth-century altarpieces painted by Botticelli, Piero di Cosimo, Filippino Lippi, and other masters for the choir of the Augustinian church of Santo Spirito in Florence. Departing from a conventional focus on artist and patron, the author illuminates the engagement of the Augustinian Hermit friars with the composition and iconography of these pictures, and discusses how they were used to fashion the choir into a space suited to the friars' institutional and spiritual ideals. Fondaras includes a close reading of the choir's most compelling and original altarpieces, which were grounded in the writings of Augustine and provided a focal point for the friars' sophisticated meditative practices".

Tijdens de late middeleeuwen ontstond in de Lage Landen een unieke religieuze kunstvorm, die gebruikmaakte van een grote verscheidenheid aan artefacten en memorabilia: de Besloten Hofjes. Deze unieke mixed-mediaobjecten stellen een ideale spirituele en paradijselijke wereld voor. Behalve gepolychromeerde beeldjes (poupées de Malines) bevatten de Hofjes zijdebloemen, metalen pelgrimsinsignes, wassen medaillons, relieken, artefacten in albast, perkament, papier en pijpaarde. Ze zijn afgewerkt met lovertjes, parels en kralen in glas, been, koraal en amber. Het geheel is een indrukwekkende, tot de verbeelding sprekende 'tuin', die met beschilderde panelen kan worden afgesloten. De zestiende-eeuwse Hofjes van Mechelen genieten internationale erkenning als unieke creaties en topstukken. Ze zijn een bijzondere mix van devotie, spiritualiteit en ambachtelijke innovatie. De zeldzame collectie wordt bewaard in het Mechelse Museum Hof van Busleyden. Dit boek verzamelt niet alleen kennis over de inhoud en de beeldtaal van de Hofjes, maar richt ook de aandacht op de bijzondere materiële kenmerken. Detailfoto's tonen nooit eerder geobserveerde artefacten en ontrafelen de historische mixed-mediakunstwerken. Dit eerste totaaloverzicht van de Mechelse Besloten Hofjes is het resultaat van jarenlang internationaal academisch onderzoek.
