The Challenge of Kosovo
This essay offers a reflection on the vexed position of the pre-modern visual arts in Kosovo that sees medieval monuments under continuing armed guard. The violence that led to this state of affairs is sadly familiar, but this enduring phenomenon attracts little attention. The essay concentrates on the fate of the Serbian royal foundations in the region and suggests that it has important implications for the discipline of art history, whose estab…
Valuing the Work of Jaume Huguet: A Painter and his Materials
Jaume Huguet (c.1412-1492) was the most prominent painter in Barcelona in the late fifteenth century. His work, along with much painting in the Crown of Aragon in this period, was notably decorative with extensive use of gilded surface ornament.

This article explores the subtleties that emerge if we set aside suc…

The catalogue of that exhibition, published in association with Yale University Press i…

The burial chapel of Giuliano Guizzelmi and the demands of devotion
This paper examines the wall paintings of the burial chapel of Giuliano di Francesco Guizzelmi (1446‐1518) in Prato Cathedral (1506‐10). Drawing on the memoriale or memorandum book of the patron and a posthumous biography of him, it explores the significance of the images with reference to prominent features of his religious life; his devotion to a miraculous crucifix and his intended pilgrimage to the Holy Land. The study helps to clarify the ce…
