Edited by Bolognese specialists Raffaella Morselli and Babette Bohn, the studies collected here focus on the taste for Bolognese art within Bologna itself and in other parts of the Italian peninsula, including Mantua, Ferrara, Rome, and Florence. Essays examine the roles of gender, class, and the social status of the artist in early modern Bologna, approaches to exhibiting artworks in noble Bolognese collections, the reputations of local women artists, the popularity of Bolognese quadratura painting, and the relative success of both contemporary and earlier Bolognese artists with Italian collectors.Babette Bohn, professor of art history, Texas Christian University, has published widely particularly on Bolognese art, including books on Guido Reni, Ludovico Carracci, and Federico Barocci. Her current book project is entitled Women Artists, their Patrons, and their Publics in Early Modern Bologna.Raffaella Morselli, professor at Teramo University, has also published extensively on Bologna, including books on seventeenth-century collecting of Reni, Albani, and Cantarini and the social history of artists. Her current book project is Bologna distretto delle arti. La società artistica felsinea nel XVII secolo.Plus d’informations sur le site de l’éditeur.
