Gregg relates how Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, and Duke Cosimo I of Tuscany employed city view artists such as Anton van den Wyngaerde and Giovanni Stradano to aid in constructing authority. These artists produced a specific style of city view that shared affinity with Renaissance historiographic practice in its use of optical evidence and rhetorical techniques. History has tended to see city views as accurate recordings of built environments. Bringing together ancient and Renaissance texts, archival material, and fieldwork in the depicted locations, Gregg demonstrates that a close-knit school of city view artists instead manipulated settings to help persuade audiences of the truthfulness of their patrons' official narratives. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history ;$vv. 294. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history.$pBrill's studies on art, art history, and intellectual history ;$vv. 35. 606 $aConstitutional history, Medieval 606 $aGovernment Policy 615 0$aConstitutional history, Medieval. 615 0$aGovernment Policy. 676 $a320.9401 700 $aNortmann$b Ulrich$0291042 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811598803321 996 $aCity Views in the Habsburg and Medici Courts$94008336 997 $aUNINA
