Master Enguerrand Quarton agreed to depict all the estates of the world in the paradise of his altar piece. Purveyors of the new technology, printing, found the pope could drive a hard bargain. Lorenzo de' Medici's possessions included exquisite art and an ostrich egg. This collection of primary documents makes fascinating reading, covering drawing and workplace practice (including linear perspective, sculpture, architecture, panel painting, prints and printmaking), the intellectual state of artists and art education process, the places where art was done and patronized, the influence of class and wealth, and the impact of various markets, including the French royalty and the buyers of icons. Two particularly interesting collections include one on how art related to death and another on how, in later years, artists were called to reform and remove the images of the past.
