Argues that art should address a broad audience and explains the painter's responsibility to his spectators. This book explains how - even if the archbishop did not succeed in reforming the arts - Paleotti's treatise constituted one last synthesis of art as a reading of creation and salvation history, and "sacred" art as a vehicle of devotion.
