As I am discovering with my investigations to Marian iconography, the Renaissance was less a 'rebirth' (as it was in veneration of classical themes) but an inheritor of Coptic, Byzantine and Medieval traditions for Sacred art. <br /><br />I would recommend a search in archives such as The Met's Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History and the Cambridge Medieval Imaginations image database to see what it turns up.<br /><br />Im sure you know about the Met resource - here is the link to the Cambridge site:<br /><br />http://med-imag.english.cam.ac.uk/index.php<br /><br />HAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02091875643921165081noreply@blogger.com
