Media reviews

“The persuasiveness of his brilliant chain of argument is such that, in the end, the conclusions seem as firm as if based on first-hand documents.”—The Times

“An excellent translation of a brilliant and stimulating thesis, well-produced and richly illustrated.”—Hugh Trevor-Roper, The Listener

“A cerebral detective story that uncovers the still pertinent bond between power and art.”—The Village Voice

“Includes much valuable research on the involvement of Piero’s patrons in the great political, religious and cultural events of the time.”—London Review of Books
