Cover of Art and propaganda

Art and propaganda

"The great accomplishment of this book is that it goes far beyond an investigation into the self-representation of a Bohemian king, or the growing naturalism in portraiture which occurs at this time: through its careful analysis of these extraordinary riches of documentary and visual material (and much recent scholarship in Czech and German), it defines the main ideological components of royal and imperial power as they were shaped by one of its greatest exponents in fourteenth-century Europe."—Jacket.
