In this book, Louise Bourdua examines how Franciscan church
decoration developed between 1250 and 1400. Focusing on three
important churches - San Fermo Maggiore, Verona, San Lorenzo,
Vicenza and Sant'Antonio, Padua - she argues that local Franciscan
friars were more interested in their own conception of how artistic
programs should work than merely following models for decoration
issued from the mother church at Assisi. In addition, lay patrons
also had considerable input into the decoration programs. These
case studies serve as a multiform model of patronage, which is
tested against other commissions of the Trecento.
