Objects of Virtue
By Luke Syson and Dora Thornton

This book examines the multiple meanings and values of the objects with which Renaissance Italian families, such as the Medici, Este, and Gonzaga families, surrounded themselves and explores the complicated relationships between the so-called "fine arts" and artifacts of other kinds for which utility might be as important as artistry—such as furniture, jewelry, and vessels.
