The Art of Poverty: Irony and Ideal in Sixteenth-Century Beggar Imagery

`The art of poverty` is the first book in English to analyse depictions of beggars in sixteenth-century European art. It develops a striking thesis, arguing that such images largely conformed to two paradoxical, though complimentary, traditions: the one ironising, the other idealising. -- .
