This ground-breaking study examines the work of the Florentine artist Lodovico Cigoli and the conditions of artistic production at the beginning of the 17th century. CigoliÂ’s art is viewed as an experiment that sought to balance competing claims to truth from Counter-Reformation theology and contemporary historiography, philosophy, art theory, and natural science, leading him to explore new forms of presentation.
