She reveals a widespread fashion for large-scale religious imagery in houses owned by the gentry and prosperous middle classes during the period 1560-1660 which is interpreted in relation to life in the 'godly' household. The book is copiously illustrated with narrative imagery in wall painting, plasterwork, carved wood and stone and a range of objects including furniture, textiles and ceramics. The character of this 'decorative' art is explored in relation to the functions of rooms in the early modern domestic interior with a focus on how religious imagery might inform and support spiritual activities taking place within the home. The visual evidence throughout the book is supported by extracts from contemporary texts to elucidate the meanings of imagery for its original audience. 650 0 $a Art in interior decoration $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Decoration and ornament, Architectural $z Great Britain. 650 0 $a Christian art and symbolism $z Great Britain $y Modern period, 1500- 650 0 $a Home $z Great Britain $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Protestants $z Great Britain $x Social life and customs $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Protestants $z Great Britain $x Social life and customs $y 17th century. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Religious life and customs. 830 0 $a Paul Mellon Centre for Studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825084303.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6B160C1EE99711E08F1A6CDA6AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
