Art, knowledge, and papal politics in medieval Rome: interpreting the Aula Gotica fresco cycle at the Santi Quattro Coronati

By

Abstract

"This volume offers a thorough investigation of the fresco cycle-which include allegorical representations of the liberal arts, the virtues and vices, the seasons, the signs of the zodiac, and the months of the year-in relation to the papacy's growing interest in fields of worldly knowledge such as music, time, astrology, and medicine"-- Provided by publisher.
