Looks at art in the formative period of the Augustinian Hermits, an order with a particularly difficult relation to art. This book discusses both well-known and neglected artworks, engaging with fundamental methodological questions for pre-modern art and church history, from the creation of religious iconographies to the role of gender in art.
