| adam_text | The art of poverty is the first book in English to analyse depictions of beggars
in sixteenth-century European art. Featuring works from Germany, the
Netherlands, Britain, France and Italy, it discusses a diverse body of imagery
in many different media, from crude woodcuts to monumental church
altarpieces. It develops a striking thesis, arguing that these works largely
conformed to two paradoxical, though mutually supportive, representational
approaches.
The earlier chapters follow the emergence of a trenchantly negative approach
in Northern art, in which beggars are shown as vagabonds whose idleness
and thievery threatened the values of sixteenth-century society (especially its
growing emphasis on the need to work). In the other predominant visual
mode, beggars are shown as examples of sacred purity. In many Italian
religious paintings, beggars are morally exalted with reference to sacred
texts, and made formally beautiful with reference to revered artistic models.
Though these approaches reflect the impact of religious reform, it is shown
that, by the end of the century, they happily co-existed within Protestant and
Catholic cultures. The final part of the book is concerned with the issue of
artistic style and with the growing tendency of the beggar image to mediate
and dissolve the didactic traditions through which it had originally been
defined.
The art of poverty will be of special interest to scholars and students of
Renaissance art history, and its progressive approach and cross-disciplinary
theme and perspective will also make it vital reading for those concerned
with the development of early modern European culture.
