Abstract

This study examines the coming together of the opulent Burgundian court, an affluent urban bourgeoisie, and an increasingly expanding community of painters, and the effects of this dynamic social configuration on the newly emerging art of oil painting. Members of the urban patriciante were influenced by the nobility's culture of display and found that painting effectively served their needs for representations of their aspirations for social advancement. In commissioning altarpieces for ecclesiastical interiors, patrons were also concerned to include their portraits and coats of arms in an effort to promote the status and prestige associated with their families.
