Эта книга исследует, как высокое "искусство роскоши" эпохи Возрождения прошло путь до декоративного или "малого" искусства. Автор так же показывает, каковы были художественные вкусы мужчин и женщин эпохи Ренессанса.

This book endeavors to return to the mainstream material long marginalized as a result of historical and ideological biases of the intervening centuries. The author analyzes how luxury arts went from being lofty markers of ascendancy and discernment in the Renaissance to being dismissed as “decorative” or “minor” arts—extravagant trinkets of the rich unworthy of the status of Art. Then, by re-examining the objects themselves and their uses in their day, she shows how sumptuous creations constructed the world and taste of Renaissance women and men.
