商品簡介
Historians, art historians, and economists examine markets for art, chiefly paintings, in late-Renaissance and Early Modern Europe. They cover material culture and paintings, rules and market practices, drawing connoisseurs into the market, and creative dealing. Among specific topics are works of art competing with other goods in 17th-century Dutch inventories, artists' responses to the emergence of painting markets in Spain about 1600, entrepreneurial craftsmen in late 16th-century Augsburg, and dealers promoting artists in 17th-century Naples.
